If you have deeper lips the contrast wonвЂ™t be as obvious. 1 in a Million is so pretty color-wise but pulled streaky as it contrasted with my natural lip tone quite a bit.

Li LiвЂ™s Motor City is fun for summer but with my olive skin sometimes orange can be a hard color to pull off all the time. At Your Best You Are is another perfect plum for me. My favorite is Brooklyn Born which has the smoothest pearl and actually didnвЂ™t wash me out. We have left to right: Brooklyn Born (soft champagne pearl), Li LiвЂ™s Motor City (orange cream), At Your Best You Are (sheer wine), and 1 In A Million (sheer/patchy deep plum brown). They donвЂ™t necessarily match the Lipstick colors exactly but can be worn alone or layered on top of the lip colors. Street Thing was the worst for my lips вЂ“ it swatched nicely on the arm and as I was swatching I thought to myself I wish this color was in eyeshadow form, powder or cream because it would make for a unique black shadow with shimmers. Try Again almost looks almost deathly on my olive complexion.

Plum wines are hard to pull off for my complexion вЂ“ so many are either too blue or turn fuchsia on my lips. I think More Than A Woman is the most perfect wine color IвЂ™ve ever tried.

All of these have that signature soft vanilla MAC lipstick scent. From left to right we have Try Again (matte nude brown), Hot Like (perfect red cream), More Than a Woman (the perfect wine plum cream), Street Thing (shimmery sheer black).

The color scheme has more of a fall vibe but I think there are some stand out pieces that I think you should not miss. The overall vibe is what MAC calls moody, deep and neutral. I wanted to share some quick swatches and first impressions as I suspect some pieces will sell out quickly. The MAC x Aaliyah Collection launches in stores today with limited-edition pieces for eyes, lips and cheeks.
