I love matte lipstick. When I heard Mac was coming out with a limited edition set of matte lipsticks I was all about it! This is the matte formula from Mac that I like. It’s much easier to wear than Mac’s Retro Matte formula. I love Ruby Woo but that formula kills my lips! I would recommend using these shades on your lips when they are in good shape and use balm to help with moisture if dryness is an issue. I swatched these in a recent YouTube video but I wanted to do lip swatches also because these aren’t sold out yet which is great! They retail for $16 each so choose wisely!
I decided on four shades to get out of the eight that were available. I am really happy with the ones that I got. First up Pander Me. This was a little out of my comfort zone but I’m so glad that I got it. It’s described by Mac as a soft peachy mocha.
Next one of my favorites of the bunch Damn Glamorous. Mac describes this color as a bright pink red.
And this one reminds me of Rebel. It’s called Fashion Revival. They are saying its a deep raspberry shade.
And last but not least the brightest one I got La Vie En Rouge. Mac says this is a bright orange coral. I must agree its all of that!
I really like them all. If you love matte lipstick consider the shades in this collection. They are still all available on the Mac website as of today. I can get 5+ hours of wear depending on what I’m doing and I love that! If you like shades that you can put on and not have to babysit throughout the day consider these!
Would you do a swatch of Fashion Revival compared to Rebel?
I took a look at them both of them swatched next to each other after posting this and they aren’t that similar. Besides the finish differences (Rebel-Satin, Fashion Revival-Matte) the colors are more different than I thought. Rebel leans more purple where as Fashion Revival is a true berry (burgundy really) shade lipstick.
Yea I have rebel but I NEVER wear it, but FR is just absolutely beautiful on me!
Did you also get Living Legend?
No I just got four lipsticks from the collection!
What MAC color do you wear or which color do you think you would wear?
Do you mean what Mac foundation shade? Because I do use Prolongwear foundation and the Matchmaster.
