When good lipstick happens to bad skin tones...

Hey Dolls :)

I've had my beady eyes fixed on MACs St Germain for an age and whilst in town the other day I gave in and bought it - HUGE MISTAKE! It looks appallingly bad, Nick actually did a double take when I came through to show him ha! It's such a shame as when cropped like this, I love it...

However in reality, it looks like this...




Sadly, it completely washes me out and makes me look a little ill! Looks like I'll be pawning it off to one of my friends boo! Have you ever been so excited to try something and then been really disappointed with how it looks?

Lots of Love

Nic
