MAC Pink Pigeon, Nars Schiap and MAC Girl About Town - Swatches

Its my first post this February so I decided to do swatches to compare some the lipstick I bought last January. I think I bought a lot last month.. around 15 or more maybe?.. yeah I know I quite an impulsive buyer and I usually get bored with some of my purchase so I sell them when I am not using it anymore. :D

I also got the 4 lipsticks from the Iris Apfel collection but I will not be featuring it today because I plan to create a new blog post for that. I will be comparing Pink Pigeon, Girl About Town and Schiap. If you have been following my blog, I bought MAC Girl About Town and Nars Schiap last January. Those two lippies are my first magenta/fuchsia colored lipsticks which is totally new to me. I'm hesitant trying them out since I prefer the no-makeup look. Initially I was going to compare Pink Pigeon and Schiap only but when I swatched Girl About Town on my hand.. I felt that I should include it here too. Check out the pictures below. :)

MAC Girl About Town, MAC Pink Pigeon and NARS Schiap

Taken from Temptalia

Girl About Town is a vibrant shade of darkened, bright fuchsia pink. It has an amplified creme finish, which makes it a very creamy, opaque shade.

Pink Pigeon is a bright magenta pink with a natural matte finish. It has opaque color coverage. This has a matte finish.

Schiap is a bright, fuchsia-pink with a semi-matte finish. It has no shimmer, but it does have a slightly glossy sheen, so it doesn’t a completely matte finish. Schiap applies beautifully–soft, smooth, and the color looks even with little effort.

 Looking at my hand swatches, the 3 shades are almost the same but It is different when I applied it on my lips.

All of those three lipstick are very pretty colors but sadly they aren't working for me. I felt bad because I really like the color but my friends does not like it on me. :( Maybe they just like my normal look wearing coral or pink lipstick all the time.

For those who didn't catch those birds from the Iris Apfel line, Schiap is the your next best thing for Pink Pigeon, Impassioned for Party Parrot, Lady Danger for Scarlet Ibis and a not so close to dupe to Flamingo is Ever Hip. On all three, I really like Pink Pigeon but I gave up on it because my aunt still think its too bright and not flattering for my face. Schiap tends to be so drying and dull on me so I already gave it away. Girl About Town on the other hand is too powerful on my face, I look older wearing this. I think these colors are not of the shy ones.. so that concludes that they are not for me. :(

Oh I forgot, I created a banner for a fellow blogger since she won my free design request.
