MAC Snuggle Up Huggable Glass

MAC Snuggle Up Huggable Glass ($20.00 for 0.08 fl. oz.) is described as a “bright pinky lilac.” It’s a medium, fuchsia-tinted purple with subtle, warm cool undertones and a cream finish. It had semi-sheer to semi-opaque pigmentation with a smooth consistency. Applied, it was uneven and streaky. I didn’t notice the gloss in lip lines too much, but it did become more noticeable as the day went on. This shade lasted for four and a half hours on me.

MAC Marvel-Lush Huggable Glass ($20.00 for 0.08 fl. oz.) is described as a “bubblegum pink.” It’s a light, cool-toned pink with a creamy, milky finish. It had semi-opaque color payoff with a creamy texture that was comfortable to wear over a four hour period, but the application is streaky and uneven. Some of the color emphasized and pulled into lip lines over time as well. MAC Tender (P, $22.00) is lighter (95% similar). MAC Stay Sweet (LE, $21.00) is lighter (95% similar). Sephora + Pantone Universe Sunlit Allium (LE, ) is darker, less pigmented (90% similar). MAC Going Casual (LE, $20.00) is darker (90% similar). MAC Patentpink (P, $20.00) is darker (90% similar).

MAC Love Buzz Huggable Glass ($20.00 for 0.08 fl. oz.) is described as a “fuchsia pink.” It’s a slightly muted, medium-dark fuchsia pink with cool, blue undertones and a creamy finish. This one seemed like the shiniest of the set! Unfortunately, it applied streakily, so it didn’t look the best on. It had semi-opaque pigmentation and was comfortable to wear, at least. On me, the color wore for five hours. Bite Beauty Eleven (Watercolor) (LE, ) is brighter (95% similar). MAC Constant Craving (P, $24.00) is lighter (90% similar). Make Up For Ever 207 Candy Pink (P, $19.00) is warmer (90% similar). NYX Sugar Cookie (P, $5.00) is lighter (90% similar). MAC A for Attitude (LE, $20.00) is lighter, brighter (90% similar).

FORMULA OVERVIEW | MAC Huggable Glass ($20.00 for 0.08 fl. oz.) is supposed to be a “comfortable, creamy” formula that “wears for hours” and has “long-term hydration” with a “comfortable hug of colour.” It’s a new, limited edition formula with cream-based colors with a high-shine that tend to be semi-sheer to semi-opaque. The consistency is light-medium in weight and thickness, and it is creamy when initially applied but gets a little tackier and less emollient after a half hour. It is a moderately tacky gloss, and it holds on fairly well–three to six hours–with noticeable shine and some color still visible even after a meal. They’re slightly hydrating overall, and they have a vanilla-scent but no discernible taste. Their biggest downside is that many of the colors apply unevenly and settle into lip lines, and it’s such a huge downside, unfortunately!

Hmmm… now I’m questioning the way I use the Melteds. I apply a rather thin layer and, although the pigment lasts for a few hours, my lips become really dry after about fifteen to twenty minutes. (Probably because I have a habit of rubbing my lips together…) I always have to apply a gloss over them. Maybe I just need to apply a thicker layer of the Melted. (Or stop my lip fidgeting!)
