With fall comes dark lip colors, of course, so this year I decided to up my lip liner game by purchasing MAC Nightmoth Lip Pencil. I found that my burgundy lips were a bit sloppy, so I decided to pick this up to make them more sharp. I have always heard great things about Nightmoth in particular, so I decided to grab it to pair with some of my fave dark lippies: MAC Media, MAC Cyber and MAC Fixed On Drama (just to name a few).
When I went to the MAC store, the sales associate kept trying to get me to purchase “Vino” lip pencil instead because I was so fair, but I’m glad I picked up Nightmoth because it’s the perfect shade. I’m not afraid of wearing dark colors, so if you are the same way, pick up Nightmoth…Vino is redder. This is my first MAC lip liner so I didn’t know what to expect!
I find that it’s great for applying a crisp line at the edges of my lips, much better than lipstick. I fill in my lips with it as well so I don’t have a “chola” lip look after my lipstick wears of. It does cling to dry patches a bit more than your regular lipstick, because it is a drier formula, but that makes it long wearing. I really love this lip pencil right now because it has made my dark lips much easier (and last longer). You won’t regret spending the extra $15 to get double the wear out of your dark lips!
