My older Mac faves are fresh brew, syrup and diva. On you mehr looks so beautiful!

These all look fab on you...Velvet Teddy and Brave make me look I'll unfortunately which is very frustrating. Thanks for the great review

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

Hi Ren! Oh my best friend says the exact same thing about Velvet Teddy, she just doesn’t understand how I can love it 😂 It blows my mind how lipstick can look so different on one person to another…but I guess that’s makeup in general for you! 😄 Thanks so much for watching, really appreciate it 💜😘

[@annyharahap]

my all times faves are russian red, mehr, all fired up

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

Hey Anny, I just googled up All Fired Up…and wow 😍 It is beyond stunning!! Now wondering where I can pick it up today 😂💕

[@krisabelericamonte-bautist9729]

Just found your channel. We have similar coloring despite me being in another continent, thanks for your helpfule reviews/insights.

Hey Krisabele, thank you so much! Where in the world are you? ☺️ It’s always useful to find someone who is a colour match online, I really struggle finding anyone similar to myself! 💕

[@kpa720]

Ive been wearing and loving MAC lipsticks for so long my favourites are Lady Danger, Diva, Chilli, Cherish, Cosmo, Creme Cup, Yash and Creme in your Coffee :)

Hi there ☺️ They’re all super beautiful shades- especially those reds! 😍 I’m looking forward to trying them in their new matte reformulation too! Thank you so much for sharing! 🥰

[@sorayan.3807]

My faves are: Whirl, Spanish fly, Diva, Midimauve, Modesty

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

All such beautiful shades! I had to look up Midimauve…and it looks like absolute perfection! Thank you so much for sharing 🥰💗

[@irairod5160]

My tried-and-true are Mehr, Twig, Velvet Teddy, Modesty, Russian Red, Chili, and Diva.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

It sounds like we have similar taste! 🙂 Twig & Modesty have been mentioned so many times, I’m excited to try them! Thank you so much for sharing ☺️💗

[@irairod5160]

@@CarmelNicoleBeauty I feel that if you like Mehr, you'll probably like Twig. Modesty is very different: glossy, super creamy (I think it's the CremeSheen formula), very light and subtle in color. I use it as a "light nude" when I've done my eyes in cool colors, especially silver, pink, purple, mauve, burgundy.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@irairod5160 Brilliant info, thank you so much! 🥰

[@tanyadacosta9180]

I like your choices but mine is ruby woo so I was looking to see if it made your top 10. Overall the darker shades will work for me.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

Hey Tanya! Oh I also love Ruby Woo, it was hard for me to choose between that and Russian Red! I’m actually planning a video (in the next few weeks) dedicated to just red lipsticks - and Ruby Woo will be centre stage for that one ❤️🥰

[@kasiad9826]

Hello! My fave is Russian Red, have been looking for that shade in other brands because I don't like Mac's lipstick "taste", but nowhere I can find one, most of high street ones is fragrance with chemical taste.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

Hey there! ☺️ Oh I totally know what you mean, I think people either love or hate the Mac lipstick smell/taste! Have you tried Nars lipsticks? They don’t have the same fragrance at all, nor do Charlotte Tilbury ❤️ There are so many red options out there, I’m sure you’ll find a Russian Red alternative 🤞

[@kasiad9826]

@@CarmelNicoleBeauty I love Lisa's Eldridge formula-fragrance free, long lasting and non drying. Her Velvet Ribbon lipstick is my most worn, however it's more cool than Russian Red and more bright. I haven't find exact shade dupe, on me Russian Red is really neutral sophisticated deep red. Truly beautiful...

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@kasiad9826 I haven’t tried any Lisa Eldridge makeup, but I’ve heard so much about Velvet Ribbon! I’m planning on doing a haul in the new year, so I’ll be sure to pick it up! ❤️

[@celinescrappassion2184]

hello! you should indicate in the box below your video, what you skin understone is. I am a light to medium skin tone(winter) and Medium(summer) with golden undertones. I have often tried lipsticks recommended by people that looked like my skin tone, but in fact they were more olive undertone, and the lipstick recommendations did not always suit me. This is important to know when we are considering certain shades of lipsticks to try.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

Hey Celine! Thank you so much for pointing that out 🩷 I included my skin undertone information in my latest videos, but not the earlier ones! I will definitely go back & update the information in all of my video descriptions. Thanks for the reminder, really appreciate it! 🥰
