I'm Obsessed With This Lipstick From Schitt's Creek, and You Need to Be Too

A few weeks ago, I binged the first three seasons of the Canadian comedy Schitt's Creek — season four is currently airing on the Pop TV network in the US — and I was struck by a few things:

  1. Dan Levy (Eugene Levy's on- and offscreen son) has better eyebrows than I could ever dream to have.
  2. Catherine O'Hara and Eugene Levy will never not be funny together.
  3. The makeup department is on POINT.

Regarding that last bullet, I have not been able to stop staring at Moira's lips. As a former soap star, Moira (O'Hara) has a flair for the dramatic, and her Taylor Swift-worthy lip color is no exception. I have missed whole storylines trying to figure out what orange-red lipstick she's slathered on, and it led me down a rabbit hole.

Eventually, the network's PR team pointed me to an interview with O'Hara's personal makeup artist, Lucky Bromhead. In it, she spells out exactly what she uses for Moira's lips — it's actually a combination of two products, and one is pretty surprising.

MAC Lip Pencil in Spice

Bromhead said she uses MAC Lip Pencil in Spice ($15) to start, clarifying that she overdraws the lips and excludes the cupid's bow. It's a much lighter, pinker color than I would have anticipated.

MAC Lipstick in Dubonnet

Once the lips are outlined, she fills them in with MAC Lipstick in Dubonnet ($18). This is the elusive shade I've been searching for!

You look fabulous, Moira. Never change.
