It has been a good 2.5 years since I've actually bought a MAC lipstick with my own money. But seeing as I'm turning 25 in a week - TBH any excuse would've worked.. I thought I could treat myself (#TREATYOSELF2016) to one and the colour that I have chosen to spend my RM74 on is..
Persistence.
Which is funny, when you come and think of it cause I've been so persistent on not spending money on MAC lipsticks.
Anyway, it was a close call between Persistence and Whirl but alas! Persistence won, mostly because I've been looking for more brown-toned lipsticks.
It may look slightly orange in the picture above, but when worn Persistence's actually a very nice wearable medium brown with hints of orange-red undertones. It was actually almost muddy when swatched on my hands but we all know, that because we have different pigmented lips most lip colours would look different worn on the lips.
It's of a matte finish and I am crazy about it rn. I don't quite have anything in my lipstick wardrobe just like it so it's really one-of-a-kind for me.
Have you given brown lipsticks a try? Maybe you should.. I know I've tempted my friend Yen Mei enough to say she'll delve into more nude shades. Yay! Success!
Lots of love,

Nice color! You got really watery eyes there :D
