Mac Twig Lipstick and Absolutely It Liner

Hi :)
You all know I love Mac lipsticks. They are my favorite lipsticks and I'm always looking for new ones to try. 
I went into a Mac store recently looking for the lipstick called 'Twig'. The girl who was working had it on and it looked great on her so I was really excited to try it out.  I liked it, but I told her that I couldn't believe how different it look on her lips from mine. She showed me the lip liner she had on under it and I was totally sold and wanted that too. 

Now mind you, I have never really worn a lip liner before. I suck at putting it on, so I was kind of nervous when I bought this. I probably wouldn't have gotten it if I hadn't seen what a difference it made on the color since she had it on. 

Ok enough of the long intro, let's get into these products!

Twig is a satin finish lipstick, which is my favorite finish from Mac lipsicks. 
From top to bottom- 
Absolutely it lip liner, twig lipstick, and the bottom is the two mixed together. 

The lip liner is a little bit darker than the lipstick. The lipstick on its own it more pink toned, so mixed together they created a really nice dark mauve shade. These swatches actually look way different on my arm than on my lips. 


I'm really loving this lip combo. It's different from any of lip colors I own.

The lip liner feels a little drying so if your lips are dry, make sure you exfoliate and moisturize them first! Now that I've tried a lip liner (even though I still need practice with it lol!), I want to try out some other ones!

What is your favorite lip liner by Mac? Let me know in the comments!
