question for my coral lovin’ babes: Do you have a favorite coral lipgloss? Hands down, mine’s got to be MAC Lipglass in Lychee Luxe ($14). It’s a shimmery coral from MAC’s permanent line, and if I had to guess I’d bet I’ve gone through a double-digit number of tubes, yikes!
Wish I could say I stumbled upon Lychee Luxe on my own, but I actually heard about it from my mom. She gave me the heads-up about 10 years ago, which is funny to me because she’s never really been into makeup.

Proof positive that Lychee Luxe holds *great* magical powers.
One day she swung by a MAC counter searching for a gloss with just the best amount of color for her incredible 50-ish self. She left with her first tube of Lychee Luxe, and a familial makeup obsession was born.
When it concerns coral glosses, I like to be able to see the color on my lips, but I don’t like so much pigment that it turns into a high maintenance mess (color on my teeth, chin, cheeks, etc.)!

Lychee Luxe is the coral lipgloss Goldilocks would have worn because it bears (ha!) a ideal amount of golden pinkish coral. It stands out, but I don’t have to check on it every 10 minutes throughout the day.
And, oooh! — the flexibility. It goes terrific with so numerous different eye makeup looks, like all of the seasonal golds, bronzes, coppers, teals and greens of summer.
Colors that play well with Lychee Luxe…
MAC Mahogany Lip Pencil ($13): layered below Lychee Luxe, this reddish brown really ramps up the color’s intensity and drama
MAC Woodwinked Eyeshadow ($14.50): pack this shimmery gold on your lid along with a thick black cat eyeliner for an stylish ensemble look with Luxe
NARS Orgasm blush ($26): I love to wear this shimmery peachy pink with Lychee Luxe. The two complement each other nicely.
And it’s not all about summer, either. Lychee Luxe looks terrific year ’round, pairing beautifully with neutral eye makeup, black cat eyeliners and smokey brown shadows for school and/or work.
Another thing I love about it? staying power. No joke, but I get about five solid hours of good color with it, and that includes my regular lip smacking and all of the water I drink throughout the day.
If MAC ever discontinued Lychee Luxe … heads would roll! Well, not really, but you better believe I’d start stockpiling. I love you, Luxe! makeup and charm blog Rating: A+
Do you Lychee Luxe? If you do, what do you like to wear it with?
Hark, is that blue…?
Whoa, I think it just stopped raining. Is that a patch of blue sky, I see?
Oh, well, it only lasted a minute, and now it’s gone, but I do feel a little better. It’s remarkable how it only took a few seconds of sunshine to cheer me up!
