Review, Swatches and Dupe of MAC Lipstick Pink Pigeon
By Contributor: Samannita
When it comes to lipsticks I am always obsessed with pink shades, I don’t know why I always end up by buying the same shades from different brands. And here is the example of my stupid obsession..although I have Daddy’s Little Girl, Love Forever from MAC, I was still craving from Pink Pigeon. Pink pigeon is a Limited edition shade from Strength collection. And people like me are mad about LEs. And when it is a bright pink like Pink Pigeon, I guess the shade itself will say everything. Let’s start with my review and swatches.
Pink Pigeon is a 'bright clean pink' with cool undertones. This gorgeous hot pink perfectly walks the line between the neon tones of Candy Yum Yum and the glossier, darker Girl About Town - I'm rather enamoured with it! Pink Pigeon applies smoothly with intense colour pay off and lasts for six hours without being drying.
MAC Claims: Colour plus texture for the lips. Stands out on the runway. Simmers on the street! What made M.A.C famous. Totally true for this lipstick
Pink Pigeon is a bright pink that might not suit dusky Indian skin tones but will look great on fair to medium skin tones. The shade in bright sunny weather looks awesome. It looks so neon pink on me which I really love. But the shade is such a chameleon..it looks different in different lights. But whatever the shade looks on me in whatever light I just love to see my lips again and again in my hand mirror that I always carry in my handbag! The pigmentation of the lipstick is awesome. A single swipe is enough to get the actual shade of the lipstick.
The finish is matte and the texture is so smooth. I don’t feel any pulling or tugging on my lips while applying the lipstick. As the lipstick is matte so application of lip balm prior to applying the lipstick is suggested for dry lips. And proper exfoliation is must before applying this lipstick else one will end up with flaky lips. The fragnance of the lipstick is the usual vanilla scent that vanishes within few minutes of application thus it is good for people with sensitive nose like me..as I don’t use a lot of my lipsticks due to their fragnance which I can’t tolerate. Anyways coming to the review again!
The staying power of the lipstick is pretty good. It stays for more than 6 hours on me and fades away leaving a nice light pink tint on my lips.
The lipstick although being a limited edition comes in the regular packaging of MAC lipsticks, but the shade always matters more than the packaging. And who wants to spend extra bucks just for the packaging? So I am really happy that the price was not increased for being limited edition.

My Recommendation: MAC Pink Pigeon Lipstick is a nice bright pink but as it is a limited shade so I guess it is now not available but you can find dupes of this shade in other brands too.

Mac Girl About Town Lipstick Review, Swatches and FOTD
By Contributor: Saniya Dilori
This is my first lipstick review and I am feeling a bit excited writing about it. So my first MAC lipstick which I got as a gift from one of my friends on my birthday. All my friends were asking me “kya chahiye khud hi bta de” so I decided to get a bright pink lipstick but wasn’t sure if the likes of Impassioned, Chatterbox, Fanfare, Candy Yum Yum would suit me. I was crazily spent all days and nights searching google for a good bright neon pink lipstick for Indian skin tones. I am such a fool you know, Anshita already suggested me Mac Girl About Town and Inglot 421 but still I used to stay up all night like an owl whole night to search for the best pink lipstick reviews and swatches and ended up taking mac girl about town as my gift. Thanks to Anshita for suggesting me such a pretty shade!
MAC Girl About Town is a bright pink shade with blue under tones. It is the perfect pink for fair to dark skin tones. I am around nc37 in Mac and GAT is also recommended by Mac Artist Vimi Joshi for Indian skin tones. It is a good winter pink lipstick too! Its a lot pigmented and one swipe gives you opaque coverage.
You can pair it with a neutral eye for the daytime or a smokey eyes for clubbing. The best part about this lipstick is that the color looks flattering on practically all skin tones!
Girl About Town comes in Amplified Creme finish and has a super creamy and moisturizing texture. It makes my lips look so juicy and healthy, that I don’t really need any lip gloss on top for extra shine. It’s not too drying plus it has a slight glossy quality to it which I just love.

The staying power of GAT is atleast 5 hours if you don’t end accidentally wiping it out or washing it away. It can survive light meals and snacks. I wore it on my birthday party and had to reapply just once. The best part of this lipstick is it fades evenly so you’re not left with patchy or uneven lips. Its so hard to find a dupe for GAT in India!
I really like to wear lipsticks but my mom doesn’t like it. Its because she thinks simplicity is the best. Though she allows makeup on special occasions but not daily. But now she can’t complaint because I got it as a gift! And on this bday she even gave me the permission to apply it and do my eyes. I know I am acting like a small kid but I am feeling so happy that I can’t help it! And now I am planning a big Rimmel lipsticks haul!

Do I Recommend: MAC Girl About Town is a fuchsia pink colour and a must have if you are a bright pink lipstick lover. If you don’t own this yet then you’re definitely missing out on a very good lipstick. I can see why it’s one of Mac’s cult lipsticks! So girls a big yes for GAT. The quality is supreme, its creamy and moisturizing and stays for around 5 hours on me. It goes opaque in just one swipe and will easily last for a long time
