MAC Lorde Collection & Pure Heroine vs. Heronine

I simply love purple! So when I saw this collection coming out I was really excited. I am probably not going to wear it much right now in the summer but I am really looking forward to wearing it in the fall. Which speaking of I really don’t understand why MAC wouldn’t have waited to release this until the fall anyway.. but that is just me. Lorde’s signature look consists of black winged liner and a dark purple lip. The collection consists of Penultimate, a black felt tip liquid liner and a darker glossier version of their popular Heroine (Matte) lipstick called Pure Heroine (Amplified). I enjoy both products and think they were simple and well done. The liner is not super opaque and is a softer black which normally I wouldn’t like but it makes it a little easier to pull off on my fair skin. The liner has a nice fine tip for precise application, goes on easily, and most importantly doesn’t seem to bleed like other liquid and pen liners I have tried. The lipstick is beautiful and very comfortable to wear. It has a slight sheen/gloss to it with great color payoff. I already have several makeup looks in mind for this little beauty when the weather cools off. I have taken comparison pictures of Pure Heroine and Heroine for you to see the difference.
