This is my second post on some of the goodies from the Marilyn Monroe collection from M.A.C.
Today’s post features the gorgeous Love Goddess Lipstick (£15.50)
and a nail polish in Vintage Vamp (£11).

| M.A.C Love Goddess |
Love Goddess is a vibrant pinky/red, satin lipstick which is
perfect for those of you not confident with wearing true red shades.

It’s really more pink than red but is a really gorgeous shade which
I found to be slightly less drying than Deeply Adored.

I must admit, this it is my favourite shade due to the fact that it’s
just that more wearable and more moisturising on my lips.

Like the lipsticks, there are 5 nail polishes in this range too,
and I think it’s fair to say that it’s no co-incidence that the shades
compliment the 5 shades of lippie as you can see below!

| Marilyn Monroe Nail Lacquer. L-R Rich,Rich,Rich, Kid Orange, Flaming Rose, Stage Red & Vintage Vamp |

| Marilyn Monroe Lipstick. L-R Pure Zen, Scarlet Ibis, Love Goddess, Charmed I'm Sure & Deeply Adored |
Vintage Vamp is the darkest on the shades available and is
described as a rich, deep, retro wine shade.
There is no denying that I love this colour but I was left a
little disappointed with the formulation.
Perhaps it has something to do with the colour, I don’t know, but
this polish was soooooooooooo streaky!
Even after 3 coats it was still rather questionable looking.
I would have expected better from M.A.C. and from an £11 nail
varnish, but hey, you live and learn!
