MAC Makeup Art Cosmetics Collection: Lipglass

Four shades of lipglass debuted from the MAC Makeup Art Cosmetics Collection today: On Display, Personal Taste, New Spirit, and Young Thing. Lipglass has a sticky/tacky texture and can be sheer to opaque, depending on the shade. Lip swatches will be posted tomorrow! 🙂

Lipglass ($14.00)

  • On Display is a stunning deep burgundy-wine with gold shimmer. This one is absolutely stunning both swatched and on the lips. I haven’t been this pulled by a lip color by MAC in what feels like way too long. I like this one so much I’m considering a back up…
  • Personal Taste is a purply-rosy pink with golden shimmer. It’s semi-sheer, providing just a smidgen of color on the lips, but mostly just brightening up the natural lip color and adding shimmer.
  • New Spirit is a light orange-y coral with soft golden shimmer. I was reminded of a more orange version of Orangedescence lipglass (limited edition from quite awhilea go). I liked it, and I liked the way it gave my lips a brighter look and the shimmer was noticeable.
  • Young Thing is a warmed up creamy beige with peachy-gold shimmer. It’s similar to C-Thru, but it has shimmer, and it’s not quite as cool/neutral toned.

  • Product: 9/10
  • Value: 8/10
  • Ease of Use: 8/10
  • Packaging: 8/10

Recommendation: I’ve always been a fan of MAC’s Lipglass, just because it’s available in so many fantastic shades, and the sticky-factor makes it long-wearing. I found On Display and New Spirit to be my new must-haves from the new glosses.

I like the first 3, but not sure if I like them enough to fork out for even more lipglasses. I have literally hundreds of lipglosses already, and these don’t seem to unique, albeit nice.

How similar is New Spirit to Queen Bee? They look similar in the tube and wonder how similar they are on the lip. I think I’m in love with Personal Taste just because I have nothing that looks anything like it in my collection.

I tried so hard to not get another lipglass since i have so many that hasn’t even been opened cause i got them from previous collections. But I was so tempted to get New Spirt. And from what I swatched in store it was so beautiful that i had to get it!

I picked up Young Thing over the weekend and love, love, love it! It’s fantastic! While it is similar to C-Thru, I like it much, much better. I can’t wear C-Thru because it makes me look dead, this has just enough peach tones, making it my perfect nude lip. My only complaint is it could have a tad less shimmer/frost, but whatevs. I may repurchase a back-up for the future.
