Lovely

I'm a huge fan of the bright bold lip and when I saw that MAC came out with a new collection (Fashion Sets) featuring bold colours I had to try them.
Ablaze is described by MAC as a "bright apricot cream" with a matte finish. It shows up on my complexion (MAC NC15 or Matchmaster 1) as a bright medium coral with pinkish red undertones. Ablaze is a richly pigmented creamy lipstick with opaque coverage and appears to be a slightly satiny finish compared to a true flat matte finish. Like other matte lipsticks from MAC, I found this lipstick to be very long wearing for me too. Held up well during the day with only a few touch ups required, and as a pleasant surprise I didn't find this shade to be as drying as other mattes from MAC's collections.
Overall a truly gorgeous coral lipstick that is pigmented, bright, and wears well. Highly recommend it to others who like their bright corals.
