I'm continuing my Mac Lipstick Collection 2017! This video is all about my Mac Retro Matte Finish lipsticks - my favorites, some swatches and a wear test so. Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for MAC Matte Lipstick Diva at Amazon.com. Read honest and unbiased product reviews from our users. The MAC Diva lipstick is a deep reddish maroon shade with a matte finish. Usually whenever there is a lipstick with matte finish, we always assume that the formula will be drying but not in this one. The Diva lipstick has a very creamy texture and when it is being applied, it practically glides on the lips.
Mac Diva Lipstick review and swatches : Got this at the mall when I was like 14 or 15. Gosh I was spoiled– Mac at 14! To be fair, this is one of like 6 pieces of makeup that I owned at the time. And til I was like 19. Anyway, this is a super nice burgundy-leaning-red matte. Love it. So glad that I can enjoy something that I got as an intolerable goth teen.
MAC Diva Lipstick is the perfect shade for winter. I love a deep plum/burgundy lipstick which compliments both pale and darker skin tones. This is supposedly a matte lipstick, however, it is quite creamy in texture.
And here is what it looks like on my lips. I applied it kind of lightly over primed lips .
This is only one layer so you can see just how pigmented this Mac Diva lipstick is!Diva is super pigmented and really long lasting, the first time I wore this to University I had forgotten to put it in my bag but it lasted for hours, even after I'd had my lunch! The only downside to this lipstick is than it can be quite drying on the lips, and as its matte it seems to emphasise any dry spots.

This is my very 1st post on Vanity No Apologies and needless to say I am equally nervous and excited so please be kind and bear with me. I will get better with time I promise! Since the time I started looting myself to buy MAC lipsticks I have been wanting to sue the people who name the lipsticks. Why? Oh well what can a poor girl do if lipsticks are named- Syrup, Girl About Town, Cosmo and so on? Well…. buy them for one. So I wanted to get Diva even before I had tried it on me!
Diva is described by MAC as Intense reddish burgundy How to install new fonts into adobe premiere pro mac. in a matte finish. The color is one typical example of looking all dark and dreary in the bullet but once on lips, it unleashes the dark sensuous diva within you and just grabs all attention in its dark maroonish brown burgundy color. It is an extremely daring color to pull off but once you do nobody can stop you! The color reminds me strongly of only 1 thing and that is…err. No wait I don't want to spoil your appetite just now!
Since it is a matte finish (that is full on pigmentation) Diva delivers just that! 1 swipe and whoosh – A deep dark rich color which covers any sort of lip pigmentation. However Diva is not a retro matte like our famous Ruby Woo and instead falls in the category of creamier mattes and hence is smoother and easier to apply. But beware! If you were sloppy as a kid in coloring and step out of your lip line well.god help you! Once it gets even a bit smeared the stain will just not go from your skin so do use a liner.
The lasting power as is with matte finishes is super awesome and lasts throughout the day with all meals and drinks and stains as a sexy remnant of the original color on your lips (I like the stain better!)
Full size mac keyboard. Diva like all other MAC lipsticks of the permanent range comes in a typical black and silver packaging with a tight click cap making it travel friendly.

Hope you liked my review and oh yes I know the question still bubbling in your minds- what does Diva really resemble?? Dried blood! I mean really! It gives it the sexy vampire twist. I even wanted mock fangs for my lip swatches!

Do I recommend? If you are familiar with rich, deep dark shades then Diva is the absolutely correct choice to bring out the diva in you. A single swipe transforms your simple look into a glam avatar and once you gain the confidence to carry it off you are going to fall head over heels in love. I do believe however, that this shade will be more apt for medium to dusky Indian girls.
Editor: Mac Diva is rumored to be the lipstick Anne Hathaway wore as a catwoman in Dark Knight Rises. If you are looking at dupes than Inglot Round Lipstick Refill #86 comes quite close. And if you prefer rich deep shades in general than check my swatches of L'oreal Intense Ruby.
