Makeup Geek Iconic Lipstick

There are 20 shades in the Makeup Geek Iconic Lipstick ($15.00 for 0.07 oz.) range. I’ll also have swatches of the Plush Lip Cremes today, but I won’t have swatches of the Plush Lip Mattes for at least a couple of days, at the earliest.

Claire Talks Beauty

love the packaging and the colors ! so excited for these 🙂

Nathalia

Wow Savvy is such a gorgeous color! Wondering if there are any dupes, cause there is no Makeup Geek where I live 🙁

Dani

Light Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Oily skin.

I don’t think they have a store location anywhere, just online purchase.

Nathalia

I know, but I live in South America, it takes a fortune to get Makeup Geek stuff shipped here.

Nuisance

Just purchased Savvy online.

Kimberly

Light Medium, Olive, warm undertones. Combination skin.

These remind me of UD’s Revolution line. A couple of the colours look interesting though!

The Makeup Train

Light Tan, Yellow undertones. Normal-to-Oily skin.

Lots of pretty shades here! I look forward to seeing swatches of the mattes.

Stephanie

I picked up Lively but now I’m wishing I had gotten savvy!

Kiss & Make-up

Light Medium, Yellow undertones. Very Oily skin.

Shy and Giddy are my favorites I think!

Miradan

These look wonderful — especially interested in Spoiled and Lively, and maybe Elegant. And Shy, but I *know* I have a gazillion dupes for Shy. Can’t wait to see the reviews.

Kat

Very Light, Olive, cool undertones. Combination skin.

These look really promising!!

WARPAINTandUnicorns

Lightest, Olive, warm undertones. Combination skin.

Shy, Proper, Naive, Gullible, Giddie, Candid, and Clumsy are the ones I’m interested in. 😉

Tan, Yellow, moderately yellow undertones. Normal skin.

Ooh Spoiled, Witty, and Saucy have caught my eye.

Katherine T.

Wow, these look pretty good! I like the more unique colors, Offbeat and Saucy

Tiffany

Light Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Combination skin.

I like Shy and Spoiled. I am curious how these will review.

stirfryedshana

Some of these look super pretty but….fifteen dollars? Marlena needs to re-evaluate and remember why she made this company in the first place. It certainly wasn’t to compete with Urban Decay and MAC-level pricing.

Shelley

Agreed. What I loved about her line was that it was similar to MAC and UD quality wise but not at the same prices.

Sarah

Lightest, Yellow undertones. Combination skin.

My thoughts exactly. Makeup Geek has been touted as “affordable” for so long but the recent highlighters and lipstick prices are going the opposite direction. Even as bad as customer service is, I’ll stick with ColourPop for an affordable brand.

Nancy T

Medium, Olive, neutral undertones. Combination skin.

I agree. It’s getting awkward, really. Plus, I just noticed that the amount of product is only .07 for $15! Basically making UD and MAC lipsticks a BARGAIN.

Melissa

This was exactly my thought too!

Helene

And mine.

Melissa

These look better than MUG’s first lipsticks which were AWFUL. I’ll wait for the reviews before I buy these. I don’t know how I feel about the prices. She sure is getting proud of her line. =\

Mo Merrell

Offbeat looks great but I really hate these kinds of lip tubes. I have yet to figure out why I dislike them but I steer clear of them 🙁 weird the things we choose to like and dislike. Great colors though

Katherine

Light Plus, Neutral undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin.

I really like Savvy and Offbeat, but I keep getting drawn to those brown/gray colors and they just don’t look very flattering on me :/

MacKenzie

These look beautiful! Can’t wait to see reviews! I am a little surprised their traditional lipsticks are more than their liquid lipsticks though, it’s usually the other way around. I hope they’re good!

Sarah

Lightest, Yellow undertones. Combination skin.

The mattes look VERY matte, almost drying. I think I’ll pass on MUG just because I don’t really trust them as a brand lately. Maybe if they perform well I’ll consider them, though!

Nika99

I really like Giddy,Shy,Clumsy,and Offbeat but I’m not sure what it would look like on my skin tone.

Deborah S.

Personally, I feel like if the formula is good and the colors are ones that I like then I don’t care if she charges $15 dollars. I guess I feel like if she is competitive with other brands and makes a good product then she should be able to charge a competitive rate. In general she charges a fair rate. I have lipsticks that I have paid $50 for and they aren’t particularly great lipsticks.
I really like Witty and Risqué. I am sure I have a ton of dupes for Risqué since it is in my go to color range!

Nancy T

Medium, Olive, neutral undertones. Combination skin.

These look great! I mean really, they are saturated in pigment, look lush, most aren’t streaky or uneven at all. Very nice surprise!
So far, I am in love with Candid, Shy and Savvy (my eldest granddaughter’s nickname!). Yes, I *need* Savvy!!!?

Indya

Very Deep, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Very Oily skin.

Ooh I really like Saucy and Spoiled. Curious about the formula on these!

Erin

Lightest, Neutral undertones. Combination skin.

Elegant and Shy look like winners to me.

Bonnie

Light, Neutral, slight pink undertones. Oily skin.

Eagerly waiting for reviews! Some of these are so pretty! Shy, Gullible, Candid, Lively

Genevieve

Lightest, Pink undertones. Dry skin.

Witty is a great shade – it looks very moisturising on the lips.

Lisa

Light Plus, Yellow undertones. Very Oily skin.

Oh NO! I ordered Spoiled a couple days ago, but the swatch on the MUG site looked nothing like your swatch. In fact, it’s looking like most of the swatches on the MUG site are inaccurate. Darn it, I never would have ordered Spoiled if I had known.

I’m just not going to buy from Makeup Geek anymore. Their prices now are the same as MAC, except I can’t see or try the products beforehand and I can’t return. I’d like to support Marlena, but I can’t just throw away money like that.

Christine

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

So that made me go look at their swatches to see, and what is interesting is that the swatches for Spoiled on the arms (fair and dark) on the lipstick’s page are actually quite different than the lip swatch – closer to the swatch I have (on my arm and lips) – but the color of the lipstick in the tube seems off (more desaturated).

Sarah

I love Clumsy and Spoiled. Do I need more lipstick? Nope. Am I considering getting more lipstick? Yep.

Alecto

Light, Yellow, strong yellow undertones. Combination skin.

Savvy, Rare, and Offbeat look like really unique colors. I’m feeling like I own a color extremely similar to Saucy.
