Hello!
Is it just me, or when there is an offer on MAC lipsticks, it is impossible not to make a cheeky purchase. I had a voucher from Amber for MAC at Debenhams and, with the £5 off of two lipsticks thanks to my favourite holiday of the year (ahem National Lipstick Day), I got two lipsticks for the price of one. Can I just say HELL YES. I have not paid full price for a MAC lipstick yet and I will not in a hurry.
Anyway, the first beauty I picked up was Girl About Town. It is a very vibrant, blue toned pink that is super duper opaque. It's part of the Amplified range so isn't overly drying and applies like a dream. Unfortunately, as expected, the staying power of this shade isn't as good as the mattes but is still significantly better than your standard Rimmel lippy in a similar colour.
I personally haven't had an issue with it bleeding but do like to apply it with a lip brush to get a more precise line. It's fantastic in the summer with just mascara to give a put together look. I also cannot wait to wear it in the evenings with a more dramatic eye as we head into Autumn. It is definitely a summer colour but has been on my to-buy list for such a long time I just had to.
Have you got Girl About Town? How do you wear it? Let me know!
I'm so jealous! This looks like a gorgeous colour!

I thought it was more on the pinky side, but it still looks amazing. I'm lusting after Ruby Woo, so I'll probably have a cheeky look at duty free on my way home from holidays! xx

It is definitely pink! I have missed having one for so long! I got Russian Red instead of Ruby Woo because RW is so, so drying! It does stay put though apparently.

Okay, I'm absolutely kicking myself for not knowing about this offer - I managed to miss it last year too! Girl About Town looks like a gorgeous shade, perfect for summer!

Oh no! I saw lots of tweets about national lipstick day and thought YES ALL OF THE OFFERS. Debenhams offered £5 off each lipstick last year so it wasn't as good a deal this year but still a little bit of a discount.

What a stunning colour. I want I want.

It certainly is!

Girl About Town is on my hit list. The latest one I've bough it Good Kisser which is pretty similar but you can never have too many blue toned pinks :)

Gorgeous pink colour! And awesome bargain buying that you have never paid full price for a MAC lippy - I need to be more savvy like you! :) x

They are so pricey - I just cannot see myself paying £16 for a lipstick! It means I cannot get them often but when I do it's that bit more special!

Ohh such a stunning colour! <3

such a gorgeous shade! i wish it came in a matte, i can't cope with reapplying the other finishes - i'm so lazy! xx

It really is! It does last a good 4-5 hours for me even when drinking. It's not a bad lasting lipstick at all.
