MAC Tease Don’t Touch Vamplify Lipgloss

MAC Tease Don’t Touch Vamplify Lipgloss ($20.00 for 0.16 fl. oz.) is described as an “intense true red.” It’s a brightened, medium red with strong, pink tones and leans bluer. It had a fair amount of color payoff, but you’ll see the natural lip come through somewhat (my lip freckle is still there), but it looks really even and smooth–I was surprised at just how supple the lips looked. It wore well for five hours, was comfortable and hydrating over time. MAC Suggestive (LE, $20.00) is darker (95% similar). Tom Ford Beauty Erotic (P, $54.00) is more muted (95% similar).

MAC Peer Pressure Vamplify Lipgloss ($20.00 for 0.16 fl. oz.) is described as an “intense red-burgundy.” It’s a muted, dark berry with reddish tones and a creamy, shiny finish. It had semi-opaque pigmentation–almost looks like a stain than gloss–with a slightly thin consistency that still spread well but was less glossy compared to other shades in the range. It applied with smooth, even coverage, which is tough for darker, less pigmented glosses, and it wore for five hours on me. Tom Ford Beauty Red Corset (P, $54.00) is lighter, brighter (90% similar).

MAC Suggestive Vamplify Lipgloss ($20.00 for 0.16 fl. oz.) is described as an “intense blue-red.” It’s a brightened, medium-dark red with cool, pinky undertones and a creamy, shiny finish. It had good pigmentation, but there’s some translucency so the natural lip color will come through still. It applied really well, though, with even coverage and never looked streaky and somehow managed not to slip into lip lines until after four to five hours of wear. The color lasted for five hours in all and was hydrating over time. MAC Tease Don't Touch (LE, $20.00) is lighter (95% similar). MAC Utterly Tart (LE, $21.00) is darker, more muted (95% similar).

FORMULA SUMMARY | MAC Vamplify Lipgloss ($20.00 for 0.16 fl. oz.) is supposed to have intense, vivid color paired with a moisturizing, glossy, long-wearing formula. Some shades are very pigmented while others are semi-opaque, and some shades apply evenly while others are more streaky. They have a light-medium thick consistency that’s not heavy or goopy, but it’s not really thin; however, they’re really smooth and creamy, so they feel nice on. There’s no tackiness initially, and it feels a lot like lip balm to me–soft, smooth, and my lips felt supple. I find they develop light to moderate tackiness as they wear on. They wear anywhere from three to five hours and are lightly to moderately hydrating over time. The formula has strong, vanilla scent (stronger than their lipsticks; I can smell it for a bit even when it is applied, not just in the tube) but no discernible taste.

Oh no!…once again, MAC is making my wallet want to run away! Can we start a petition for these to be permanent? lol! Because even the ones I have dupes for, I find myself wanting these because they are better! UGH! I can’t have them all though. Ma faves here are Tease Don’t Touch and Suggestive. I really like Modern Drama and Peer Pressure seems too close so I’m just nixing that one for sanity sake.

Nicole Avatar

I know! My SA friend is pre saling some for me. So that gave me another week to budget. I decided on Suggestive from this group. I need a voice of reason between Peer Pressure and Modern Drama though. Do you think those two are different enough to warrant getting both? If not , would you go for the dark vampy MD or the better scoring PP? I’d appreciate any help! If I asked my regular friends theyd tell me to take a hike!

These are so gorgeous! I would grab some, but I already have a number of glosses to go through, so will skip. I think MAC should make the Vamplify Lip Glosses permanent

Casey Avatar

I know!! I got suggestive so i can wear it over my ruby woo lipstick but they will discontinue it and if i wanted a blue red gloss to wear over it id have to stick to their thick and sticky original lipglass formula or stick to matte. Boo!

Nancy T Avatar

Oooh, absolutely LOVE Peer Pressure and Suggestive!!! Between the two, I love the berry-ish hues in Peer Pressure more, though. And, as others have stated in the past, your lip freckle helps me to decide whether or not something will give me enough coverage for my unevenly pigmented lips!

I want five of these, some that have already sold out and others that will probably sell out before I can purchase them on Wednesday. I don’t have a store anywhere near me. Do you think Nordstroms will get these, Christine? If so, do you know what date they would likely become available?

I think Mac did a suprisingly great job with these glosses – there are a few misses, but most of them look fantastic on you! The formula sounds good, pigmented yet comfortable to wear.

Wow! Those all look great on you! Nice reds for your coloration!
I ordered Peer Pressure and am waiting for it to show up. I’m glad it got a good review and hope it looks as nice on me as it does on you.

Michelle Avatar

These colors are gorgeous! Did you experience any bleeding with these? I want to try these but they kinda look like they’d travel everywhere since they’re a gloss! Do they need a lip liner at all?

Casey Avatar

I decided to get this in suggestive to wear over my mac ruby woo lipstick, cause i dont really prefer the formula of the lipglass, which is a bit thick and tacky. Its very comfortable and opaque like a liquid lipstick but its glossy like a gloss.
