After buying the MAC Twig lipstick I convinced myself that I needed to invest in a lip pencil too to complete the look! Whirl and Spice seem to be a popular choice to pair with Twig, however, I loved the look of Soar and I also think it goes well with some of my other MAC lipsticks too.
Soar is described by MAC as a "mid-tone pinkish brown". The lip pencil has a creamy texture and applies easily to the lips. Also, Soar remained on my lips for the whole time that I was wearing lipstick - rather than rubbing off half way through the day. Outlining my lips with Soar before applying Twig made my lips look plumper and more defined (yes I did feel like Kylie Jenner!), but if you want to create even bigger looking lips then overlining the lips slightly should do the trick.
I have also paired Soar with my MAC Peach Blossom lipstick because Peach Blossom is a barely there nude so blending it in with Soar creates a slightly darker nude but still has the glossiness of Peach Blossom. Which lipstick and lip pencil is your favourite combination?
Great review! This shade is so stunning! :)

DeleteI am such a huge fan of MAC! I've only ever owned one of their lip pencils though, so I'll have to check this one out (perhaps as a holiday treat...?). By the way, new reader here, and as a blog designer, I can say that your blog looks fab! ;)
