Pervette is my favorite pink MAC lippie! Its a frosty light purple pink shade. Its not too bold, too pastel or neon, its pretty tame to wear to work. Simple enough to wear alone or I may add Mall Madness lipglass on top of it & that's still tame. Stays put for a long time but I can feel that frost sensation on the lips sometimes. continued >>
I'm a huge huge pinky-purple fan, and a frosty- glaze fan so in theory i should love this. But I am underwhelmed. For some reason this shade always seems to look rather dull on me and i don't know why! Because i really wanted to love it! Maybe i just have not found the right lip gloss to put on top.... It's just strange because unsually cool pinks and purples really work on me
My HG lipstick. Wear it with everything. I once tried to switch to Snob but it just isn't the same. This has more of a light purple or lavender to it versus straight pink. It is also pretty frosty.

I had forgotten the name of the lipstick I had used previously. This one was too purpley, and made my lips look shriveled.
I got it for free when I turned in my 6 empty foundation bottles so I LOVED the price. It looks initially like a pale bubblegum pink in the tube but it has a blueish/ hologram-ish look to it. When I put some on the back of my hand it was so pretty (At least that's how I describe it.) I rarely wear lip color because I play up my eyes and when I do I stick to a color that is close to my natural lip color . (Rosy nudes/corals/pinks) That being said I really liked how this looked layered on top of the lip gloss I was wearing ( Ulta Brilliant Color Plush #15). It came out a fun flirty shimmery pink. I personally can't stand when lips look flush with skin so this alone would absolutely do that for me but as a light top coat for other glosses/ lip sticks it gives an interesting lilac tinted shade. I picked it in mind for my bday trip to Las Vegas this week.
I wouldn't buy it again because it wouldn't be an everyday look for me. I used my free lipstick pick on it because it was such a fun color and mainly the name is perfect! I couldn't resist!

I love this lipstick, I used to wear snob but switched to pervette because the lilac under tone compliments my green eyes and purple eye shadow. I have black hair, tan skin, and green eyes and it isn't too frosty for me perfect girly pink, A bit drying but a swipe of gloss fixes it.
Too blue a pink for my complexion...would probably suit a cool blond but on my lips, it looked too too pink and frosty even though it's a glaze...should stick to nudes...

This color is gorgeous! I generally don't gravitate toward glaze lipsticks (other than Hue) because I feel like the color payoff just isn't worth it, but this one is great. I swatched it last week, just out of curiosity, and fell in love. I've been looking for a light purple toned lipstick for ages and I was so disappointed when I missed out on Quite Cute, but this is a great color. I've worn it with natural makeup and darker makeup and it looks great either way, very fitting color for spring and summer. And I think layered over a slightly darker lip pencil it will be a great color for fall, as well. 4 lippies because it tends to look a little too frosty sometimes, but the pale violet color is just heavenly.
I have always loved this color but I do not use it as often as I like. I bought my first tube in 2008 and I pretty much fell in love with it immediately. Back then my hair was a different color and I did my eye makeup differently. When I ran out I did buy another tube. I think I'm on my third tube now. I find that when I wear this color I like to have a smoky eye. I think it's gorgeous by itself but it's very pale and violet. If you're not careful you can look dead with too little makeup on elsewhere. It isn't the best wearing lipstick, but it feels nice enough and it looks awesome in pictures (sexy and frosty). I usually wear it on special occasions.
Picked this up today while on my hunt for a lippie to wear w/ my purple eyeshadows. I only had plummy purples & they just didn't go w/ the vibrant purple e/s's. So i was trying on different shades at the counter & saw this one. Normally light pink is a big no no for me but i saw the purple duo-chrome & gave it a shot. Its not something im going to wear daily but it does look good w/ my purples so im happy. continued >>
