Something I can never say no to is yet another pink lipstick. I dread to even think how many I've bought over the years but soft neutral pinks just suit me so well. I'm not one for the high maintenance that comes with most bright lipsticks on an everyday basis so a pretty pink has always been my go-to shade. One of the most recent additions to my makeup bag is this gorgeous Satin Lip Cream from MeMeMe. I can't say that I look through their stand regularly as I normally stick to Boots but this lipstick is completely worth a quick sojourn to Superdrug. The shade China Rose is such a beautiful nude pink colour. It's a fairly natural looking pink so this is exactly the kind of lipstick that I like to wear during the day. I wouldn't say it lives up to it's claim of being long-lasting, it's about average for a satin finish lipstick. However it is very creamy, comfortable to wear and easy to reapply. It's clear to see why China Rose has seldom strayed from my lips lately.
The thing that really sets this product apart from many other drugstore lipsticks is the formula. The quality is just phenomenal. This lip cream is enriched with shea butter & vitamin E so it really helps to soften & nourish your lips. It applies so smoothly and has a wonderful glossy finish. It just feels like silk on your lips. Everything about it; the texture, the scent, the pigmentation all remind me of a MAC lipstick. I would liken it to their Creamsheen finish lipsticks in particular. If you just swapped the packaging for that classic MAC bullet you wouldn't even be able to tell the difference. Carrying on with the MAC comparisons I would even go as far as to say that this is an exact dupe for MAC Creme Cup which is one of my favourite lipsticks of all time. The main difference is that the MeMeMe Satin Lip Cream is almost half the price of Creme Cup. I've fallen head over heels for this formula, who knew there were such good MAC lipstick dupes in Superdrug?! If China Rose is anything to go by then I definitely need to try out some more colours in this range. Have you tried the MeMeMe Long Wear Satin Lip Creams before?

I was sent the shade Chara Tuscan Red and I absolutely love the formula as well, but the shade unfortunately doesn't look good on me. Might need to buy this one, as it looks like my type of colour :)
