“Lipstick…Lipstick in my stash …whose the next that going to add…?" :P
So finally, I am up for review and swatches of my most recent buy MAC RETRO MATTE LIQUID LIPSTICK. Yes, finally after so many brands, Mac enter into the field of liquid lipstick Game. I have tried many liquid lipsticks from different brands, whether high end or just Drugstore. Few has succeeded to impress me (who is a sucker of lipstick) and few are disappointing. The very first day when Mac announce the RETRO MATTE LIQUID LIPSTICK, I started planning for the same.
And apart from 15 (I guess there are 15 different shades), I finally sort out and settle into three. It was a hard and tough decision for me to settle on three when you have planned so many…Lol
Mac retro matte liquid collection going to be in permanent range or not that is a different topic to discuss. As Delhi Mac store has no information regarding the same. I grab TO MATTE LOVE, TAILORED TO TEASE & DANCE WITH ME.
Price: - Rs.1800/- each. [I know, I know …too pricey as it burns a hole in pocket….]
TO MATTE WITH LOVE is described by Mac as a beautiful bright raspberry pink.
TAILORED TO TEASE is described by Mac as bright fuchsia. If I try to describe the shade more specifically then the shade is a beautiful fuchsia plum which is medium dark with warm undertones.
Finally, my favorite among all three DANCE WITH ME is described as a beautiful cranberry red. The Lipstick is a beautiful red lipstick. It is hardly dupeable. I never had this kind of red in my stash before. And yes all thanks to my darling friend come soul sister SUKANYA for recommending that to me [Babes! I love you for that ;)]
Coming to the review & my experience part:-
The retro matte liquid lipstick comes in a usual liquid lipstick packaging like other brands use to have generally. I mean Mac end up with the same kind of transparent tube with a wand like liquid lipstick usually have. The packaging definitely nothing new compare to other liquid lipsticks from different brands but again thinking about those extra bucks that I shred for Limited edition ones I am really happy with the packaging. The lipsticks are quite creamy in texture that glides smoothly on lips. It turns out to in matte texture after few minutes of application. So one need to be very fast while applying the lipstick. The lipsticks are very pigmented. As one-time wand dip in these liquid lipsticks is enough for your entire lip. It stays pretty 6 hours plus on my lips. It survives light meals and snacks and beverages too. Most of the brand turn out patchy after some time of application but I found Mac one is not patchy at all. I heard the lighter shades do have such patchy issues but with darker shades (those three I have) are not patchy at all.
Among all three my favorite is very obvious 'DANCE WITH ME', shade.
So finally, it's me trying out all three shades at one go.
MAC RETRO MATTE LIQUID LIPSTICK "TO MATTE WITH LOVE" ON MY LIPS. |
MAC RETRO MATTE LIQUID LIPSTICK "TAILORED TO TEASE" ON MY LIPS. |
MAC RETRO MATTE LIQUID LIPSTICK "DANCE WITH ME" ON MY LIPS. |
I am quite impressed with the liquid lipsticks that Mac has launched finally. And I wish it going to add on permanent line soon as I found there are few more shades in this collection that will rock on Indian skin.
Dupe list: -
TO MATTE WITH LOVE nearest dupe is MAC ALL FIRED UP.
TAILORED TO TEASE is actually a dupe of MAC FLAT OUT FABULOUS.
DANCE WITH ME nearest dupe can be MAC PLEASURE BOMB. Although I will disagree a bit with the dupe one of Dance with me as I found it is a unique shade in this collection that has no exact dupe till now.
So, that's all for today and I will catch you soon with a new post.
