Editor's Review

MAC Dare You Lipstick ($18.50 for 0.10 oz.) is a rich, medium-dark red with warmer undertones and a fine, pearl shimmer and luminous sheen. It had good color coverage with a lightly emollient texture that had a touch of tackiness, which helped it adhere well despite having a glossier finish. The lipstick applied evenly and stayed on well for five and a half hours. It was lightly hydrating over time. This shade is part of the permanent range.

MAC Dare You is a medium-dark red, with slight warm brown undertones. It's quite similar with multiple other MAC red shades, easily dupable in other formulas. I'm light medium with warm yellow undertones, the shade is flattering on me, it's a dark red that's quite wearable during the day. The Creemsheen formula from MAC is as always comfortable and moisturizing, but it's not my favorite since it's slippery and moves a lot during the day (bad when you talk a lot or sip water often); might be better paired with a lip liner. The pearl finish is almost unnoticeable, but gives a satin look that makes the lips appear more plumped. It has a decent color payoff from the first application, but not full opacity; it can be build up, but not too much.

Soft but a bit tangly application, easier with a lip liner, feels nice on the lips, glossy colour, but not too much sparkle, full coverage, doesn't dry into patchiness, great dark cool toned red, looks as a defined yet natural statement lipstick (doesn't look that separate from a face like matte lipsticks sometimes do). Great for cool, neutral and olive skin tones, dark eyes/hair.
