MAC Pure Zen is amongst one of my latest MAC/lipstick purchases to join my collection, after the lovely Corrie recommended it to me quite a while back now.
Well and truly in my "safe" lipstick zone, Pure Zen is described as a Rosy Beige Nude in what I would describe as being in the same family as Hue- just a Peachier tone, which is why I just can't get enough.
Completely wearable, I find these kind of tones so "me" and I call them safe, because I can pretty much always rely on them. Whatever the occasion, whatever the make up- they work and for that, I will always have one to hand.
Pure Zen is a Cremesheen finish, which in the past was never my favourite, but I've found I have grown to love it, maybe even more so than Satin. Creamy on application with a moisturising sheen, Pure Zen sits on the lips beautifully and has the ability to act as a sheer wash of colour, as well as a more built up semi-opaque colour on the lips, which is how I prefer to wear it.
Just like most MAC lipsticks, Pure Zen has decent longevity and stays on the lips a fair few hours before fading.
Available from MAC stand alone stores and counters in the likes of House of Fraser and Selfridges, MAC lipsticks cost £15.50.
What do you think of Pure Zen? Is it the kind of shade that would suit you and your collection?

I really like this colour. It reminds me a little of MAC’s Peach Blossom which is a favourite of mine.

I really like this shade - I remember when Corrie posted about it in her blog and I had intended on picking it up but completely forgot! Can't beat a good natural shade :)

Lately I have been wearing Mac Creme in my coffee and Kinda Sexy. Both different and unique in their own right. However, Pure Zen looks amazing and a gem to have on hand. Will definitely check it out and thanks for sharing your thoughts on Pure Zen!!! Have a lovely day!! <3
ReplyDeleteI find it so hard to get a nude to suit me. I feel like this one still wouldn't because of my skin tone. However this looks so nice on you! xo
