MAC Dish It Up Lipstick
MAC Dish It Up Lipstick

MAC Shop MAC, Cook MAC: Lipsticks

The collection features six limited edition shades of MAC Lipstick ($14.50 for 0.10 oz.). These shades include: Dish It Up (berry pink), Innocence, Beware! (light yellow pink), Naughty Saute (bright pepto pink), Quick Sizzle (bright pink), Runaway Red (rich red-blue), and Watch Me Simmer (bright pink-orange).

  • Dish It Up is a muted, medium-dark fuchsia-plum with semi-opaque color coverage and a natural sheen. It has a lustre finish, so it’s supposed to be semi-sheer and moisturizing. I don’t find the finish to be hydrating; I actually find it a bit drying. The color coverage is actually much more than anticipated based on the finish. MAC Plum Bright is much, much darker and less pink. MAC Hot Gossip is lighter and pinker. MAC Love Forever is brighter, pinker, bluer-based. MAC Something New was the most similar but still pinker and more vibrant.
  • Innocence, Beware! is a pink-tinted pale, fleshy beige with subtle pink micro-shimmer and a natural sheen. It has a cremesheen finish and yields mostly opaque color coverage. MAC Naked Bliss is a few shades darker and less pink. Maybelline Born With It is a bit less pink. MAC Hue is less pink-toned.
  • Naughty Saute is a vibrant blue-based light-medium pink with a good amount of sheen. It really does resemble Pepto Bismol. It has a cremesheen finish. It has a lot of glide and slip, so it doesn’t always apply evenly around the edges. MAC Viva Glam Gaga is much lighter. MAC All Styled Up is much lighter, less blue-toned. MAC Pink Friday is just as blue-based, but it’s lighter.
  • Quick Sizzle is a bright blue-based fuchsia pink with opaque color coverage. It has a matte finish. It’s not one of the dry-type of mattes; it’s creamy and applies evenly without pulling at lips. Make Up For Ever #203 is slightly pinker, less blue-based. MAC Show Orchid is less pink, iridescent. Milani Rose Hip is slightly lighter. NARS Schiap looks about the same. MAC Candy Yum Yum is more magenta, less pink. OCC Pretty Boy is darker. MAC Rare Exotic is darker, pinker. MAC Pink Pigeon is more fuchsia.
  • Runaway Red is a medium-dark blue-based red with a subtle fuchsia sheen. It’s mostly opaque on lips, but there is a hint of translucence. It has a satin finish. Make Up For Ever #48 and MAC Dark Side are browner. Guerlain Gwen is closer but not quite as dark. MAC Digna is similar but not as opaque.
  • Watch Me Simmer is a vibrant coral that leans just a tinge pink but comes across as a truer coral. It has an amplified finish. MAC Ultra Darling is pinker and less vibrant. Wet ‘n’ Wild Hot Paris Pink is pinker. OCC Trollop is slightly pinker. Make Up For Ever #37 is a bit darker. Chanel Phoenix is a touch darker. Bite Beauty Rose is slightly more orange. MAC Full Speed is very similar. VS Be Mine is pinker.

MAC lipsticks are vanilla-scented and tend to wear three to four hours on me on average.  Finishes like lustres tend to disappear within two hours, but I suspect the more opaque Dish It Up should get to around three hours.  Matte, satin, and amplified finishes tend to wear four to five hours, and some of the darker and more intense shades, like Quick Sizzle and Runaway Red, tend to last six hours or longer and typically stain the lips a little.

P.S. — If you’re worried about not being able to snag some of the lipsticks, because some have sold out on MAC’s website, the collection is still due to launch at other retailers, like Nordstrom, Macy’s, etc. as well as in-stores.

I think any skin tone could rock it, but it is a warmer shade, so it may not be the most flattering shade, you know?

Christine
Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »

I compared Naughty Saute to Viva Glam Gaga in the post – and Saint Germain is pretty much the same as VG Gaga, so no, they’re not dupes!

Innocence, Beware! is darker and pinker. HTH! 🙂

Amanda

Do you think if you already have saint germain and the gaga lipstick that you should pass on naughty saute? Or are they different enough to excuse having both?

Christine
Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »

Really just depends if it’s a shade you’d wear… because they’re definitely not dupes – they are pretty different.

Melody

Watch Me Simmer is gorgeous! I think it’s being repromoted in a couple months though, so I’m not in a hurry to get it. Haven’t even been wearing the lippies I’ve already bought recently. I like Dish It Up, but I want a backup of Innocence, Beware and should only get one. Decisions, decisions.

Victoria

Innocence beware and Naute Saute both look rather garish D: I love brights but for some reason this collection’s brights seem really unwearable to me. There’s something a little too neon about them that looks like they’d wash me out. Runaway Red looks beautiful though!

sam

I have yet to see a shade of lipstick that looks terrible on you; your skintone just suits everything. These are pretty nice- I’m a big fan of Watch Me Simmer.

Miss J

Oh, I will make them mine no matter what it takes! I just wanted to be lazy! We’re expecting about 6-12 inches of snow where I live and my MAC counter is about an hour away. Gotta love the midwest, haha! I plan to call and order over the phone or something. Make the UPS guy trek through snow, hah.

Cassandra

I was so happy I was able to purchase Watch Me Simmer! 🙂

I checked MAC’s website on the 3rd, and found all of the shades NOT sold out!

Christine
Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »

I don’t have Pink Nouveau, sorry! From what I understand, it’s a blue-based pink and fairly vibrant, which makes it seem like it would be darker and more fuchsia.

Miss J

I don’t have Naughty Saute, but I have Pink Nouveau, and comparing from your pic of NS, PN is darker and less cool-toned. Maybe a bit brighter, too. Not as milky, pepto-y of a cool pink as NS.

Miss J

QS is way more blue-based, brighter fuchsia. PN is much more a classic barbie, bright bubblegum type of shade without looking too cool or milky. 🙂 It’s closer to NS, they just aren’t dupes.

fabiola

Quick sizzle, watch me simmer, and innocence beware are my favorites, and in the fence with naughty saute. It looks easy to dupe, but still pretty. Thank you for this review Christine. When I’ve tested so many lipstick so pigmented, I usally remove it with vaseline, it will help, because I imagine that your lips must be sore after all the testing.

Christine
Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »

I think I’ve done around 60 swatches in the past 48 hours, LOL! No more lip swatches for a couple of days at least 🙂

Kayti

I like the way WMS looks here as it pulls more pink orange than orange which fits with the discription. I think if you’re warm toned, its going to look more like this and if you’re cool toned, its going to pull more orange.

I’m very disappointed in Nauty Saute, it looks bad and another blogger mentioned it being hard to apply compared to the other lipsticks.

Christine
Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »

Yes – I think I mentioned it in the post, but Naughty Saute has a lot of slip, so it moves around on the lips, which leads to unevenness!

jenn

Naute Saute reminds me exactly of Melrose Mood from Heatherette… any chance you could check that? No swatches needed just a yes or no would be amazing!
Thanks so much for all the swatches & hard work! We appreciate it!!!

Anne

So excited for Watch Me Shimmer! I managed to get one yesterday before they were sold out online, and it was sent out today. I’m also looking forward to checking out Quick Sizzle when they come out the 9th.

Jacquelyn

The lipstick swatches are amazing! For those that missed out on Watch Me Simmer, you either have a chance to snatch it up in stores next week or wait until it get repromoted with So Reel/Reel Sexy Collection.

ludwig

Hey Christine (or anyone who knows), can you back 2 MAC for these? I know you can’t for products in LE packaging but it’s only the box that is different for this collection…

Christine
Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »

I’d call your local store/counter – the policy varies, even though there is an actual policy, stores are all over the map on how they follow it.

Romina Elorrieta

I think you can only Back2MAC the permanent shades. You cannot do it with Viva Glam series because the profit goes to a charity, and I think you cannot do it with limiteds either. At least that’s the policy that my local MAC counter has got… They also have a no-reservation policy which I find insulting for large consumers like me.

Christine

I know that most stores enforce no LE shades if they’re in special packaging, but I know some stores will let you B2M for LE shades in the regular packaging. I know for sure VG is a policy followed very well. Some stores let you reserve, though, but I guess it all depends on the store 🙁

Try Nordstrom or Macy’s – they are better about holds – if you have one near you!

divinem (Melissa)

I am SO irritated they launched this so early. I’m usually ready to go on the Monday night before the online launch. MAC’s release antics are really turning me off.

Christine
Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »

Yeah, it’s really random and not exactly sure why Vera is up at all, since that wasn’t supposed to come out until the 16th!

Veronica

Feeling MACed out yet, by chance? 😀

I really like Dish it Up and Innocence, Beware! I’ve been looking for a good pink-based nude, so I might go for it. 🙂 The gold eyeliner you’re wearing in the swatch picture looks great on you, too.

HautePJ

I thought that was Lhasa! So pretty and sophisticated on you. I would have never thought to pair it with El Dorado but it works so well. Also, do you think Watch Me Simmer would look OK on an NC50? I’m afraid it will maybe pull too orange and too bright, but maybe I could top it with Kumquat lipgloss? As always, thanks for the awesome reviews!!

Lisa

I’m NW43/NC47 (if there were such a thing). I have WMS and I love it! Like Christine said, the constrast looks great. Don’t be scurred LOL!

Beck

I missed Party Parrot due is there anything here that could fill the void in my heart for it?I don’t see an exact match but perhaps a suggestion?

trayceeee

Going to pick up Runaway Red and Dish it up!
Woohoo! Loving this collection.
I hope when everyone complains that Mac sucks, losing quality etc. that they remember these GREAT collections that have everyone excited.

Side note: I don’t like when people complain that Mac releases too many collections. There are always new shoes, new fashion etc. coming out and they are just keeping up with the trends. I also don’t like when people say that Mac isn’t coming out with anything “unique”. “Oh, another pink lipstick”? HELLO! What other colors do you want to wear on your lips? Not many people are daring enough for blues, whites, blacks, grays. Also, not everyone is a collector. I own only 3 Mac lipsticks (only ones I own) so these pinks and berries and reds have me super excited 🙂 I don’t buy unless I know FOR SURE I am going to wear.

Quinctia

I think the “too many collections” complaints come in especially with things like last year’s “Miss Piggy Collection” that was a couple of permanent products and one poorly pigmented eyeshadow, all without any special packaging.

Honestly, if you didn’t make any good new products and there’s no difference in the packaging, what’s the point? People get even more disappointed when that kind of phoning it in happens with a license or celebrity collaborator they enjoy. It’s easy to see why someone might think the company’s spreading themselves too thin with LE stuff.

Can’t make the argument with this set, though I guess having more LE runs overall would discourage most collecting. I don’t see how that would necessarily be a plus for MAC, but I also don’t work in marketing, so who knows.

Christine

It think it’s about being a hype machine – built around the idea that this just might be the next most coveted lipstick or whatever and you better get it or else you’ll miss out FOREVER. People make more impulse purchases because they’re afraid products will sell out (and they do), so they grab it now instead of thinking about it. And then you have people who will buy backups because they know it’s LE and won’t come out again.

But there is something to be said about quality over quantity. I totally agree with you, Quinctia – do it well or don’t do it at all!

Carla Souza

Not to cause anything, but I am one of these people who believes that Mac launches to many collections a year. I do believe that fashion changes and new collections need to be realeased, but for shoes, clothes etc they are released every 3 or 4 months. So you have 4 or sometimes 5 collections a year, and just last year MAC released 42 and many of them were misses. Of course, from drugstore to high end brands, there are some misses, but if MAC could foccus more on a collection, they could maybe not perfect, but at least get the best quality product as possible. But then again, this is my opinion and Im not trying to make you change yours 😀

trayceeee

I guess because I don’t consider myself a collector I don’t see the need to buy something from every collection, limited edition or not. I also think that means that I don’t get as upset when they have a bad product. My point in my post was that we sometimes need to remember the good stuff before giving up on the company when they put out something bad.

I completely agree, do it well or don’t do it at all but I guess I’m just indifferent to the number of collections they have every year. It’s nice when I’m preparing for spring, summer, fall and winter that when I go into Mac there’s something new and fun to play with instead of the same old stuff.

Can we all agree that this is a kickass collection though? We can find at least ONE thing that we love here.

divinem (Melissa)

I only purchase what I know works for me, trend or no trend. If one looks like a trendy dead carp, what’s the point?

I AM absolutely incensed that I tried THREE TIMES to snag Quick Sizzle and Watch Me Simmer without success.

If one isn’t stalking Twitter, FB and the BBs, there’s no chance of getting what one is really interested in.

MAC has become unnecessarily notorious for this practice. I went on a 9 month no-buy because of it last year. It looks like I’ll be doing it again — maybe permanently since I’ve developed a keen interest in MAKE UP FOR EVER products. They don’t play the LE marketing machine games (not yet at least).

I hope everyone enjoys their hauls. Couldn’t do it without you, Christine. 🙂

whitwhit

I agree. also, I’m not the type that just haaas to pick up everything from every collection. however, I do find myself collecting the baby pinks from every collection & I never get tired of them! but I’ve decided to change it up & collect some brights & these are gorgeous for starters, especially since I missed out on the Iris Apfel ones. so I’m really excited about this collection as well! 🙂

Katrina

I was eyeing on watch me simmer till i read ur post that its similar with Full speed which i already have. Your blog makes me buy more makeup cause ur always updated with product swatches, but tnx for ur comparisons you let your readers know bout some products that are almost similar to the ones your reviewing. 🙂 thanks so much!

Chiara

Thanks so much for these swatches, Christine!
I never really pick up anything from MAC’s collections normally. But I LOVE coral-pink lipsticks so I really can’t resist ‘watch me simmer’. I love this colour for summer! I hope it won’t lean too pink on me.
Thanks again!!

Margot

MAC has impressed me with this collection. I love the pearlglides and quite a few of the face products. And I will definitely be checking out the lipsticks for myself! MAC’s done good!

Carla Souza

Hello Christine,

Thanks for the swatches! They all look great on you!
But I do have a question: Are Watch me simmer and Flamingo (From Iris Apfel collection) dupes to each other?

artemis

i love the colors(all) but idk why they settle into lip lines like that 🙁 i like how runaway red and dish it up look on the lips. i get a disco vibe from dish it up on you, hehe, must be the eyeliner and earrings, it’s cute.
watch me simmer and innocence, beware would really be perfect if they didn’t settle, very nice shades

Christel

I checked Macys and Nordstrom and this collection is not available online.
May I know when will it be available online at Macys & Nord?
How about in store, will it be available at Macys by Feb 9?
I want the Watch me simmer & Quick sizzle so bad. 🙁

Miss J

Soft Nude is a drier texture and slightly more opaque. Innocence, Beware! also looks a lot more pink-beige, whereas Soft Nude is a peachier nude shade. I personally prefer Innocence, Beware! It has a better texture, IMO. Hope this could help! 🙂

Smidgeroo

I’ll probably grab a backup Runaway Red, and I’m definitely getting Quick Sizzle and Watch Me Simmer! I like the variety of this launch.

Valerie

Was able to purchase Quick Sizzle online (Canada) hehehe, with the code NEWS for free shipping. i’m way more braver with colour when i’m shopping online 😀
By the way people i’m always lucky when I go to the nearest MAC Pro store I found last week Scarlet Iris on stand (still!!!) and i’m so happy I did buy it, it is such a nice red-orange!

Elisabetta

Christine, there’s the risk that Watch Me Simmer Lipstick brings out the “yellow” of the teeth?? it’s a beautiful colour but I’m concerned about this…

Laura

Naughty Sauté and Quick Sizzle are definite skips for me. Dish It Up is VERY appealing but I feel like I must have something similar in my stash…nevertheless I will probably end up taking it home with me 😉 I already have Innocence Beware and Runaway Red, so the only one I can’t decide on is Watch Me Simmer. It’s a lovely colour and I don’t think I have anything similar, but I’m not sure I could pull the colour off too well (I’m an NW10-15 redhead). I might skip it for know as I believe it’s being repromoted soon anyway ( with Chen Man I think).

Ana G.

Seriously..I’m freaking out!! In a good away, of course 🙂 I haven’t bought anything from Mac since last September and, between this collection and Vera, I’m going broke! Finally I can say I’m excited with Mac collections!!IUPII..it’s about time – I really missed Mac with quality.

MichelleChefNYC

Oh no, now I want all of these! This is the first MAC collection in a long time that has me lusting after products. Nice to see MAC step up to the plate again, finally…

carmen

these are all great colors! just wondering do you know what lip liner would be like trimmed in pink since mac does not have that one anymore?

Sindy

Hi, DO you think they will have the lipsticks available at the counters on Feb 9th? Since they are sold out online =( I really want to get “Quick sizzle” and “Watch me simmer”

Karen

How does Quick Sizzle compare to Impassioned? I don’t know if I should get one or invest in both 🙂 Btw, I’m Asian, so I have yellow undertones…do you think it’d work on me?

Sara

FYI Ladies: Mac’s website is mostly sold out of the lipsticks, but I went and bought 3 from Nordstrom online. Go get ’em while you still can! 🙂

Kelly

Nordstrom is already out of WMS and Quick Sizzle!!!! They went so quick!!! Luckily I already snagged WMS at the launch party but I have MAC regret about not getting Quick Sizzle!!! hopefully my Mac store will re-stock before Thursday even though they say they probably won’t -_-

Sara

I checked Nordstrom’s website this morning and they’re now accepting orders, but they won’t ship out until the 20th. Good luck on your hunt!

blkrox

Watch Me Simmer immediately reminded me of CoverGirl Lip Perfection in Fairy Tale, which I never wear – I don’t like corals on me very much, even pinkish ones.

For those who are unable to get Watch Me Simmer I think it would be worth it to check out Fairy Tale, the Lip Perfection formula is a good one – not drying (although not particularly hydrating), long wearing ( I get about 6 hours without eating), the intense ones, like Fairy Tale tend to leave a stain, which can be good or bad depending on your preference, and they don’t have any scent or taste that I can discern, and I have about a dozen of them.

Hope this helps. If anyone has both lippies I’d love to know how they compare! Thanks always Christine for getting such great swatches/reviews up so quickly!

Michelle

Do you happen to have Chanel L’Exuberante? If you do how does it compare to Quick Sizzle or any of the other pinks??
I was on a hunt for the perfect bright pink and I though L’Exuberante was it, but if I can find one just as pretty for a lower price, im in! lol.
Love your reviews Christine 🙂

rebelle

christine, when i saw ur tweet that the collections were online at nords, i immediately check it out, but when i added watch me simmer to the cart, it was out of stock! it’s crazy how the sell out so fast in a new york minute! 🙁 when i checked ebay, the price is up to $40-$90!

Christine
Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »

It’s darker – I’d say Real Doll is more comparable to the shades I talked about when trying to find a dupe for Naughty Saute.

LaceyS

Is there any way that Naughty Saute can compre to the new Viva Glam Nicki? I wonder if I would waste my money getting both. I will get VGN but Naughty Saute looks pretty, but I wish I could see a side by side!

Allie

IMO, Dish It Up is basically Plumful (at least on me).

I tried Plumful on my bottom lip and Dish It Up on my top and I couldn’t really tell a difference. Neither could the MA, lol. xD

Denise

Would you say that Quick Sizzle is basically a matte version of Girl About Town? I love GAT but I want a long wearing version.
QS is sold out everywhere but I was hoping if/when the MAC website restocks, I could grab one. Thanks.

Ava

Yes, I agree with you! So ladies and gents – for those who weren’t able to get “Quick Sizzle”, please do not feel bad. I just got my own “Quick sizzle” yesterday and when swatched, it was 98% close to “Girl about town”. It is also a very close dupe to the prolong wear lip-glosses, specifically “full speed ahead”. I’m thinking of returning my “quick sizzle” and hopefully give it to someone who loves it more than I do. Just a caution: it really stains your lips. I would prefer the prolong lipgloss over this lippie.

Nessa

Love all your swatches Christine,I was wondering what is that golden colored eyeliner you have in the innocence beware full face shot,it looks stunning on you. Would love to know. Thank you so much dor taking the time to do these swatches,you are greatly appreciated. Xoxo

tulika

hey i was just wondering what gold eyeshadow/liner you have on in the picture where you are wearing the innocence beware lipstick? it looks beautiful!

Sofia

Hi Christine,

Do you by any chance think that Cover Girl’s lipstick color in Divine could serve as dupe to the color Quick sizzle? I own Divine and am trying to compare the two. Maybe divine is a bit more on the purple side…What do you think?
Thanks! 🙂

Jean

Hey Christine! First of all thanks for the reviews & swatches. I think Innocence, beware really suits you 🙂 speaking of nude lippie, I just think that it’s almost the same shade as the Viva Glam Gaga 2, don’t you think so? Should I skip it since I already have the same shade?

char

Yaay! I heard quick sizzle will be promoted in April! I so hope this is true, but this news came straight from a MAC employee so I think it is reliable. I missed out on it with shop cook so I am really excited 🙂

Rachel marshall

Hey!
Just wondering how similar ‘Quick Sizzle’ is to ‘Hollywood Nights’ from the Heatherette collection? I found someone selling QS for a super decent price so Im real tempted to purchase it but I have HN so If I dont neeeeed it I’ll pass, haha.

gabii

 @Christine (Temptalia)  Yeaah, I know. but I don’t want to have pretty much the same colors. Just tell me that it wasn’t a mistake 🙂

Stacie135

Do you think ‘Watch Me Simmer’ is similar to Illamasqua’s ‘Scandal’? I don’t want to buy if it’s the same! 🙂 x

FeliciaP

I have been desperately trying to get Quick Sizzle for ages, after I saw someone wearing it.  When it relaunched in April the girl at the Mac store told me it would launch on April 15th, (wrong date) so I missed it by 10 days, and by that time it was sold out absolutely EVERYWHERE. I have been impatiently waiting for it to relaunch.  And to be honest, there are a lot of similar shades, but I dont want them if they are not Quick Sizzle, in my eyes it has to be that Quick Sizzle shade, it’s the one I want, and I honestly believe it is because it is LE and unavailable to me.  
 
Business is all about supply and demand and we always want what we can’t have, don’t we!! 😉
