Hey, makeup lovers!

Can we take a moment to appreciate MCoBeauty?

Seriously, they've been on fire with their releases lately.

I've been a fan for ages, but lately, I can't resist buying every new thing they drop.

So, let's talk about their latest gem—the Crème Matte Lipstick in 'Very Shelley.'

First off, can we acknowledge that it's a dupe for a luxe brand that rhymes with "Billow Chalk"? Yeah, that one.

I've always wanted to try it, but shelling out 50 bucks for a lipstick? Nah, not for me.

'Very Shelley' is this gorgeous brown-toned nude pink that goes with basically everything.

Despite the name, it's more satiny than matte on the lips, which, by the way, is my jam.

It's comfortable. It doesn’t have that drying feeling you sometimes get with matte lipsticks.

Now, I won't lie—it's not the longest-lasting lipstick out there.

But here's the thing: it's so easy to reapply. And for a shade like this, I'm cool with that. I mean, if it was a bold red or something, I'd want it to stay put, right?

But 'Very Shelley' is an everyday go-to, and touch-ups are a breeze.

I've worn it like three times this week already, and it's growing on me.

Full disclosure, I'm not the pickiest when it comes to lipsticks. If it looks good, feels comfy, and doesn't suck the life out of my lips, I'm sold!

And better yet? It's often sale at Woolworths for just 10 bucks!

I'd totally recommend grabbing it, especially at that price.

I might even snag the other shade if I see it in-store.

But here's my only gripe—

I wish they'd dial down the dupe game just a tad. Don't get me wrong, I love that MCoBeauty gives us quality stuff without breaking the bank. It just feels a bit odd that the packaging looks so much like the high-end version.

Still, gotta give props to an Aussie woman-owned brand that consistently delivers killer products at such low prices.

Seriously, every time I buy MCo, it feels like a win.

So, if you're all about that affordable luxury vibe, 'Very Shelley' is your jam.

Treat yourself without the guilt, and enjoy feeling bougie without the crazy price tag.
