Makeup Monday: RiRi Hearts MAC Summer Collection Lipstick Review + Swatches

(L-R: RiRi Woo, RiRi Boy, Heaux)

I know it's been about a month or so since this collection has come out (I have a TON of products to review, I just haven't got around to them yet) so I'm super late with this review but here it is!

After waiting online for approximately 2 hours, I finally got my hands on all three shades of this much anticipated lipstick line.

In addition to the previously released cool red 'RiRi Woo' (June 2013) the online exclusive included two other shades; vivid lavender 'RiRi Boy', and matte berry 'Heaux' (absolutely FABULOUS name by the way).

All of them are retro matte, which is about as matte as you can get (and one of MAC's most popular formulas). You'll either really love it, or really hate it. Personally I think mattes are TDF (to die for) so this collection was right up my alley!

RiRi Woo

Almost identical to its brother from another mother 'Ruby Woo'. This version of the classic red is slightly darker, emphasis on slightly.

RiRi Boy

Lavenders are a huge hit this summer and this one is definitely one to have in your collection. Not as pale as Viva Glam Nicki 2, infact im not even sure I would call this one a pastel. However is is an awesome shade of lilac.

Heaux

This super sexy berry, though not really a summery color, will definetly fit right in with your fall wardrobe. Did I mention that berry lipsticks are so "IN" this fall?  

They are a bit drying, so as with all matte lipsticks, be sure to prep your lips properly with a super moisturizing lip primer. Also be sure to exfoliate your lips before applying as this lipstick will highlight any lip crust dead skin you have lingering around.

The color pay off is gorgeous, super pigmented from the first swipe. Initial application lasts all day with barely any touch up needed.

Overall I was pleased with RiRi's summer collab. Each color can be worn with a variety of skin tones. I would have expected a more tropical palette of color from the Bajan beauty but I see she decided to go with her sexier side with this collection (shocker).

Were you able to get any lippies from this collection? Which one is your favorite?
