Morange
MAC Morange Lipglass ($17.00 for 0.10 fl. oz.) is a bright, medium orange with warm, reddish undertones and a cream finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation that applied without streaking, but there was a creaminess to the finish where some color spread into my lip lines. The finish was incredibly glossy, though, and the gloss stayed on well for five and a half hours while being hydrating.
The Lipglass formula is supposed to be “pigmented, very shiny and can impart subtle or dramatic color” that can be worn “on its own, over lip pencil or lipstick” and will “condition lips.” MAC could use an update on the description as some shades are more pigmented than others but several are sheerer and likely intended to be that way. The formula has a very glossy, high-shine finish with a light-medium weight and moderate tackiness. I find that newer Lipglasses (over the last couple of years) are smoother and not quite as tacky as the formula was many years ago. They wear from three to six hours on me and are usually lightly hydrating. MAC recently updated the shade range and packaging for the range (though the formula was said to be unchanged), so worth noting is that with that packaging change came a reduction in quantity to 0.10 fl. oz. (was 0.17 fl. oz.), which may matter for some but not everyone.

Lychee Luxe
MAC Lychee Luxe Lipglass ($17.00 for 0.10 fl. oz.) is a medium-dark coral with warm undertones and a gold pearl. It had medium to semi-opaque color coverage that applied evenly and did not appear streaky. There was a bit of color that emphasized my lip lines, but it was only noticeable to my eye in the close-up photo, not so much in person. The gloss was smooth, tacky, and lightly hydrating over the five hours it lasted.

Rambunctious
MAC Rambunctious Lipglass ($17.00 for 0.10 fl. oz.) is a medium-dark orange with warm, yellow undertones and barely-there gold pearl. It had medium to semi-opaque color payoff that applied decently but could have been slightly more even and sat better on the lips. It had a very glossy, mirror-like shine, though, which helped to minimize the shortcomings in application. This shade wore well for five hours and was lightly moisturizing.

Impassioned
MAC Impassioned Lipglass ($17.00 for 0.10 fl. oz.) is a bright, medium pink-coral with subtle, warm undertones and a cream finish. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that applied evenly, though some color gravitate toward my lip lines–the brighter color and high-shine finish made that less noticeable from a normal viewing distance. The consistency was smooth, moderately tacky, and comfortable to wear. This shade wore well for almost six hours and was lightly hydrating.

I’m really liking Lychee Luxe and Impassioned, but since I don’t like the Lipglass formula I’ll be getting the dupes instead.
Hopefully, the dupes are easily obtainable!
Wow, Lychee Luxe is gorgeous!
It is!
I have a dupe for impassioned so I’m set!
Yayy!
Rambunctious and Impassioned just went into my shopping cart. What bold, beautiful colors!
They are very summery! 🙂
I have gotta get Lychee Luxe!!! That just looks like such a great everyday type of shade that I could keep in my bag for a great throw on and go gloss.
Liking Rambunctious as an eventual replacement for Laundry List once it either gets used up or turns bad! I actually like it much more than Morange, even though Morange scored higher.
Lychee Luxe is easy to wear! I think if you like corals, you will love it for an on-the-go shade 🙂
Lychee Luxe is gorgeous. I think I’ll actually get it. I really like MAC lipglosses as well, so it’s a double winner.
Lychee Luxe is really pretty. I’m also likeing Impassioned.
I love Rambunctious so much! I wish I could find a lipstick in the same shade. Everything I have found is too red or coral. I love the warm, yellow undertones.
