MAC Studio Finish vs. Sculpt

So both of these concealers have a really good reputation. The Pixiwoo sister's swear by the Studio Finish but they also use Studio Sculpt frequently. Tanya Burr of Pixi2woo also uses both of these pretty equally. So which one wins...well its not that easy because One Size...doesn't fit all.

Studio Sculpt in NW25                        Studio Finish in NW20

I would describe Studio Sculpt as the creamier of the two, with almost the consistency of a Cremesheen Lipstick...not oily but moisturizing....which is why I prefer to use this in the winter.(Oddly enough the colors I grabbed for photos are the opposite for the seasons...) While Studio Finish is creamy and by no means drying it has more of a powder finish and is a thinner consistency which is why this is my summer go to concealer since my skin produces more oil. Both concealers have NC and NW shades ranging for 15 to 50. I really enjoy both of these and apply them with 224 brush.

Cherish by MAC

 This lip color does not get the praise it is due! I went in looking for a new nude shade (ie Creme De Nude or Hue) and ended up with this baby. It's hard for me (being so fair) to find a nude shade that doesn't make my little lips look flat and lifeless. This Satin delivers good color to your lips while staying quietly neutral as to not clash with strong eye makeup. It looks as though it would be a brown toned peach but its really more like one of those "your lips but better" colors. I pair it with a milky light pink gloss and create my perfect nude that doesn't make me look like a corps.

Ravishing by Mac!

I got this lipstick in December knowing I would love it for spring/summer and I do! Now that we're starting to see some sun I thought it was time to dig it out. Its a gorgeous warm peachy coral and adds just the right pop of color to my little lips!
