A glimpse at the lips: MAC's lipstick in Lady Bug

MAC's Lady Bug
To date I've only come across a few beauty-related items that have never ceased to amaze me, and NARS' Flamenco was a lipstick to behold, cherish, and stop other women in their tracks to ask precisely, "what are you wearing on your lips?" My hopes of replacing such a special candied red were dashed when NARS stopped manufacturing Flamenco, or so I thought.
A few weeks ago I was tinkering about at my local MAC counter when my eyes haphazardly locked on Lady Bug, "a juiced yellow tomato" -- better yet, Flamenco's doppelgänger.

Lady Bug's boldness is tempered by its lustre finish -- sheer, and subtly glossy.
Wearing Lady Bug
When I was a kid I wholeheartedly believed in the luck all lady bugs possessed. Here's hoping this tube comes with a bit of it.
The Bagful breakdown:
Total amount for MAC's Lady Bug:
Value for money spent (performance and quality):
- 10 out of 10 bags — Wear it alone, or layer it over an even more intense red liner. <3
Would another purchase be on the horizon?:
- I recently built my own blush/eyeshadow palette during our Hawaiian holiday. I'll share my picks with you really soon.
