Hello lovelies,
Long time no see. I am back with a new post of my Mac lipstick collection. My collection is not huge like others and I am slowly collecting them one by one. This is not a bragging post either and most of them are purchased by my own and some are gifted. I have 7 Mac lipsticks right now and Mac is one of my favorite lipstick brands. They have different formula such as matte, cremesheen, frost, amplified, lustre, retro matte ,satin and hundreds of colors to choose from. I will be doing hand swatches below and brief mention of colors and my review. Let's get started. :)
( left to right in shade: Please me, Kinda sexy, Lady danger, Relentlessly red, Lickable, viva glam Miley cyrus 1, plumful ).
Kinda sexy ( matte )
Kinda sexy is my first ever Mac lipstick and I wanted a nude lipstick back then. Mac website says it is neutral pinky-rose color. On my lips, it shows peachy nude color with red undertone. I did not like how it shows on my lips at first but pairing with smokey intense eyes or gloss on top is better.
Please me ( matte )
Next is the shade, please me. Website says it is muted rosy-tinted pink. I feel like it is warm and mid tone pink and is every day perfect lipstick for work. I love this shade. It is matte finish like kinda sexy and Mac matte finishes are the most opaque coverage and long wearing. Can be drying for some dry lips. On me, it lasts 6-7 hours.
Plumful ( lustre)
Plumful is rose plum color and in lustre finish. Different from matte finish, lustre finish has a sheer coverage and glossy as you can see but it can be built up to get full coverage. Pros is not drying and cons is it does not last long and you need to re-apply. I really like this color and I think it suits with all skin tones.
Lickable ( cremesheen )
Next is lickable. Lickable is cremesheen formula and my most favorite formula from Mac. The color is bright blue tone pink. I really like this color and it brightens my face instantly. Cremesheen formula is creamy and has full coverage and slight glossiness. It lasts 4 hours or more on me.
Viva glam Miley Cyrus I ( amplified )
Next is my limited edition viva glam Miley cyrus lipstick. The color is bright pink and it is really pretty on the lips. It is amplified formula and is very similar formula as cremesheen. It is creamy, pigmented and slightly glossy. Wear time is 4-5 hours on me.
Lady danger ( matte )
Next is in the shade called lady danger and is vivid bright coral red. It is one of the most popular Mac lipstick colors and in matte finish. On my lips, it shows more orange than red but I really like this color. I see different colors on different skin tones for this shade. :)
Relentlessly red ( retro matte )
My last lipstick is relentless red and it is bright pinkish coral. It is bright pink on the hands but it shows pinkish coral on the lips. This color is very similar to Mac " all fired up" on the tube except all fired up is more pink than relentlessly red. The formula is retro matte and it is the most long wearing formula of all the Mac lipsticks. It is more drying than matte formula and has good coverage. But you need to moisturise your lips first before you apply this. If you want very long wearing lipstick, get this formula and they have other shades too.

Bottom to top- (Kinda sexy, Please me, Plumful, Lickable, Viva glam Miley cyrus, Lady danger, Relentlessly red )
Overall, I think Mac lipsticks are really good and more affordable than other high end brands. The fact that you can choose the formula you like and availability of so many color choices is really cool too. I hope to try other formulas that I have not tried like satin and frost in future. :)
Hope you enjoy the post and have a great day.
