M·A·C Lip Pencil (Whirl)

I think it would have been better if it was a little pinker. The hard tip makes it easy to adjust the fine details.

I wonder if I'm using it correctly...lol I'm scratching the corners of my mouth! I like that it doesn't come off easily.

I bought this to go with MAC's Maximal Silky Matte Lipstick Cool Teddy. It's smooth and easy to apply. I had no trouble matching it with my lipstick. I'd like to buy other shades to match my lipstick.

It's easy to line your lips, but the color is a little different from what I expected. I'd like to try a different color!

I've used several MAC lip pencils in the past. They offer a wide range of colors, from natural tones to trendy shades. The pencil tip is a little stiff, but it's easy to use and doesn't smudge easily. It doesn't come with a sharpener, so first-time buyers should be aware of that. This time, I purchased "Whirl," which is said to be the most popular lip pencil these days. I wanted to match it with my recent favorites, MAC's "Alone Time" and "Buffisto," so I chose this one based on a color comparison article by a certain influencer. However, it wasn't quite what I expected. Hmm, I already have several pencils in this type of color from other companies. I was hoping for a more rose-toned shade... I guess I have to go to the counter to get the color. That said, I think "Whirl" is a very versatile color that's easy to match for those who prefer brown or beige lip colors. Those who prefer cute, blue-toned shades might not be to their liking, but it's definitely worth having. It's easy to see why this color is said to be the most popular. I've rated it 4 stars based on my personal preference for the color, but I think the product as a whole deserves 5 stars or more.
