Foiled Rose

MAC Foiled Rose Lipstick ($17.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a brighter, medium-dark purpled magenta with cooler, violet and purple pearl over a warmer base color. It had semi-sheer pigmentation that was buildable to medium coverage. The texture was smooth, lightly emollient, and thinner than other shades in the Metallic range. It could have applied more evenly. The lipstick stayed on well for four hours and was neither drying nor hydrating.

The Metallic Lips collection features a new (and limited edition!) finish, Metallic, which is supposed to be “rich colour [that] melds with smooth pearlized chrome.” The range of shades is described as “vibrant, intense, [and] on-trend.” The coverage varied from shade to shade–anywhere from semi-sheer to semi-opaque–but many shades look like they’re more suitable for a subtle look or for layering on top of another lip product to add a more shimmery finish. The majority of shades featured finer shimmer, which translated to a more foiled, reflective look, but a few had some shimmer. The wear was between three and five hours, depending on the shade, and most shades had some slip but were not slippery overall, so they were comfortable to wear but not hard to maintain. They were vanilla-scented but have no discernible taste.

MAC Lipstick comes in a variety of finishes, and the pigmentation and wear tend to be dependent on the finish. The sheer finishes, like Lustres, tend to wear for only a couple of hours and have sheer coverage (as designed) and are non-drying.

Some of the original Matte shades have a stiffer, drier formula, while newer ones have a more velvety, silicone-feel to them, and the latter are creamier, more comfortable to wear, and easier to apply, but most Matte shades are quite pigmented and long-wearing, though some are drying.

The Amplified and Satin finishes tend to have good pigmentation, lightly creamy to moderately creamy consistencies with a bit of shine, and moderate to long wear with deeper, richer shades wearing longer. The Frost and Metallic finishes have the most variance between shades with coverage ranging from semi-sheer to opaque with average wear and non-drying to slightly drying formulas. All MAC lipsticks are vanilla-scented but have no discernible taste.

Disobedient

MAC Disobedient Lipstick ($17.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark berry with a stronger, purple tint and subtle, cool undertones paired with fine, pink and plum pearl. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation that applied evenly and smoothly to the lips. It had less shimmer than most of the shades in the Metallic range, though, so while it had better coverage overall, it wasn’t really metallic in finish. The texture was smooth, lightweight, and easy to apply and spread across the lips. It wore well for five hours and left a subtle stain behind while hydrating my lips.

Hades Fire

MAC Hades Fire Lipstick ($17.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a medium-dark, muted plum with warm undertones and a sparkling, metallic finish. It had slightly larger particles, which I could feel the texture of when I applied it to my lips. It had medium, slightly buildable color payoff, but the higher slip resulted in somewhat patchy application and some color that settled into my lip lines from the get-go. The lipstick wore well for four hours and was lightly hydrating.
