Editor's Review

MAC Werk Werk Werk Powder Kiss Lipstick ($19.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a muted, darker red with neutral-to-warm undertones and a mostly matte finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in one layer, which applied evenly and smoothly across my lips without tugging. The consistency was very lightweight--almost weightless--and felt thin but didn't look or feel clingy. It was one of the better-applying Powder Kiss lipsticks for me (as I find many emphasize my natural lip texture or lip lines). It wore nicely for five hours, left a faint stain behind, and felt neither drying nor hydrating over time.

Claims / Ingredients

Matte, totally reinvented. Delivering a blur of soft-focus colour, this weightless moisture-matte lipstick was developed to replicate a backstage technique: blending out edges of matte lipstick for a hazy effect. Its groundbreaking formula contains moisture-coated powder pigments that condition and hydrate lips. The result is the zero-shine look of a matte lipstick with the cushiony, lightweight feel of a balm. Fall for this soft-touch, misty matte kiss of colour.

Werk Werk Werk is a cool pink red, medium-bright (can't detect any darkness) with a comfortable wear and a buildable opacity. The color is nice, but not the most flattering on me (yellow warm undertones, light-medium complexion); it's the kind that also makes my teeth look more yellow. At first the lipstick applies very sheer, more like a stain or balm, giving a soft blurred look. It can be build to medium opacity easily. The Powder Kiss formula is comfortable, moisturizing, but doesn't behave like a Matte; it has a lot of slip and moves more like a Creamsheen. It's creamy, not weightless, I can definitely feel it on my lips.
