Lipglass: Docile, Lap of Luxury, Best of Breed
MAC Fabulous Felines: Palace Pedigreed Review, Photos, Swatches (Lips & Cheek)
Make sure you’ve read part one, which covers all of the eyeshadows, pigments, and eyeliners!
Lipstick ($14.50 U.S. / $17.50 CDN)
- Aristo-Cat is a semi-opaque played-down pink with mauve and a golden-peach sheen and high frost finish. It has a cooler tone to it, though not overly so (closer to neutral than really cool). This is a very frosty lipstick, so if that’s not your thing, I’d definitely skip this shade. I really like the color, and no immediately dupes are coming to mind — it’s kind of like the cool-toned version of Fresh Salmon (Spring Colour Forecast).
- Cunning is a semi-sheer deep berry red with a supposedly frost finish. This doesn’t feel or look like a frost at all to me–it has more of a glaze or lustre feel and look. I find this shade rather streaky, and it seems to accentuate every single line in my lips. Might be nicer as a stain.
- Of Royalty is a creamy, light-medium pink with subtle blue undertones, so it’s one of those candy pink lipsticks… that actually doesn’t take on an almost purple look (like Saint Germain, Snob, etc.). However, it is rather similar to that family of shades (Saint Germain, Snob, VG Gaga, etc. etc.). It has a cremesheen finish.
- Superior is a sheer pink and silvered-white glittered lipstick with a dazzle finish. It’s more of a layering shade than to be worn alone (and by layering, it helps keep the glitter from migrating elsewhere, too).
Lipglass ($14.50 U.S. / $17.50 CDN)
- Best of Breed is an ultra sheer, pale, cloudy blue with multicolored shimmer, though predominantly white shimmer. It’s similar to Chillin’, but it has shimmer. It will give lips a slightly cooler tone, but overall.
- Docile is a sheer, cool-toned, iridescent pale, milky pink with multicolored shimmer. It reminded me of Icescape, or a lighter, more muted version of Cultured lipglass.
- Lap of Luxury is a reddened berry with multicolored shimmer, though predomindantly darkened pink. It’s semi-opaque, but it does settle a bit into lip lines and can look blotchy if you aren’t careful. I feel like I’ve seen this color but I’m blanking on possible dupes at the moment, but hopefully will have some for you next week when I update the post with missing items. Right now, it reminds me of the lipglass version of Odyssey lipstick.
Mineralize Blush ($21.00 U.S. / $25.00 CDN)
- Pet Me is a soft, medium pink with yellow undertonse, which makes it a warmer pink. It doesn’t appear to have any shimmer, though perhaps a very subtle sheen. Overall, more of a semi-matte finish, though. If you liked Dainty, you’d probably like this shade.

Does anyone know where I can find the Aristocat lipstick?? My Macy's store said it is a limited edition and they are no longer carrying it. The MAC website doesn't list it either! :(
Christine, what was the lip color(s) you were wearing when in the Pet Me blush picture? That's a great color!
Hey Christine, thanks for getting all these swatches out! I have a question: is Docile just a sticky as all the other MAC lipglasses? Because I like the colour but I really can't do stickiness. Thanks!
Christine, doesn't Aristo-Cat look a lot like Creme De La Femme from the pemanent shades(although I'd say the latter is a littler pinkier whereas Aristo is more brownish)?
I agree. Nothing in this collection wowed me. But while swatching the collection I fell in love with Aristocat. Then the MAC salesperson told me to put Best of Breed Lipglass on top. Soooo stunning. I'm glad I got both :)
Cunning and Pet Me were made for you Christine! You're not killing my lemming for Pet Me though, lol.
Thanks for the swatches, Christine. You look great! By the way, may I ask how Of Royalty compares with Angel and Creme Cup?
Drive me wild and pet me blush is so gorgeous. I already have hipness do you think i should still get pet me? Thanks.
Can Of Royalty be quite sheer with one coat? I'm around an NC35, do you think it would be too light for me? Thanks!!
Hi Christine I just would like to know, is Superior very sheer when applied and is it mostly pigmented from the glitters in it? Do you think it is worth getting compared to the other Dazzle lipsticks? Thanks!
wish I could get a sample of Royalty...I'm going as Snooki for Halloween and that color would be PURRFECT! :P
Hi Christine, Thanks for putting up such comprehensive swatches! Can't wait to test out the products in person. Btw, what lipstick are you wearing with Pet Me, it's gorgeous! TS
Christine, you look fabulous in darker lippies and glosses! so cool! got a quick question, I know you haven't looked for the dupes yet, just wondering: can Pet Me blush be similar in any way to Pinch O'Peach blush, can Utterly Game be of any similarity to Style blush? And finally - last time you advised Stereo Rose for my skin tone (NC15, doesn't like too pinky and too orangey blushers, prefers peaches etc)and it is PERFECT :) which of these two mineral blushes would you advise? Thanks in advance!!!
Utterly Game is rather peachy, so you might like that, BUT if you can check things out in store, you may find Pet Me surprising - because it's a yellower pink. Utterly Game is kind of like a darker, slightly more orange Peaches, I'd say. Kind of like Style, maybe not quite as orange or as bright. I wouldn't say Pet Me is like Pinch o' Peach, though!
Thanks a lot! You actually made me lean more towards Pet Me... If you say utterly Game is on the darker side than Style and Pet Me is not close to Pinch o'Peach - that's the info I was looking for :) thanks again!
i'm so gonna get lap of luxury. it will work perfektly with the burgundy lipstick i got at the drugstore :D
best of breed lip gloss is the kind of color i'm initially attracted to that is actually not that flattering (or only good for layering) on. dissapointing...
