MAC The Matte Lip Collection (May 28/ June 4, 2015)

[KaysWays]

Hey ladies. I got my package on Friday, ended up with Men Love Mystery, Whirl, Dangerous & Matte Royal. So mad MLM is a Riri boy dupe, I already have a backup of it
Edit - Left pic top to bottom Up the Amp Riri Boy then MLM Right pic was a comparison for Limecrime's Airborn Unicorn but it's not even close

My black box came LATEEE!!! Of course I read UPS for filth and blood!!! Anyhow, I had to be to work n didn't have time to play with all my colors, so I threw on Matte Royal real fast... Please excuse my rush job with its lack of color correcting, eyebrows and so on lol

 

[LuvKaya]

anyone purchase Tropic Tonic? can you please post swatches.

It looks great on you!

 

[KaysWays]

Which ones are your new favorites? I like D for Danger and Men Love Mystery. Whirl and Persistence are almost identical on me. I wish DFD and MLM weren't creamy mattes though.

They're all so pretty but surprsingly I'm digging Whirl the most.

Persistence. Please excuse the lame bathroom lighting.

I'm NC44 for reference

@mac-obsessed Frank-N-Furter on the left, D for Danger on the right

Finally tried Whirl today with Whirl lip liner. It looks more brown on me. I'll try it with a pink liner next time.

Here's a quick pic after work. MLM is very similar to RRB but it has more of a shine to it than RRB even though they're both matte. And I looooooove D

for Danger!! So happy with both.

Didn't get around to doing swatches for Matte Royal... Whirl

MLM

Box finally came!  Matte Royal definitely still pulls purple on me rather than blue but that's ok it's still very unique.  Stone is pretty much exactly how I wanted it to look.  Whirl does pull a tiny bit more brown than I would have hoped but it's not make me want to cry brown lol I think it's ok on me on it's own and in fall will be pretty.  I'll probably pair it with a pinker color underneath though when I wear it Matte Royal, Whirl, Stone Top to bottom- Stone, Whirl, Matte Royal Comparison of Whirl (top) and Boca (bottom) Whirl on me (NW 10)

Thought I'd take a comparison picture between: Top: NYX Maison Bottom: Stone Taken in the house with flash.

Stone!

If I thought Nude and SiS were the perfect nude for my skin tone, Stone is my exact nude. Like it nearly matches my skin totally. It really mutes out my lips...in a good way. I like! Perfect for a heavy eye look. Glad it's perm. It reminds me of how I like VGR2 lipstick. It's the same concept on me but frost. Some won't like it...

Yayyy,here it is on me, NC42

I tried on Stone and Matte Royal really quick before I take my makeup off for the night. These are in bathroom lighting, it's been so rainy (and cold!) here so i hope these show up somewhat true to color Stone. I like this even if it's a weirdo shade on me lol reminds me of the 20s

Matte Royal which my friend describes as "Plumpy from Candyland color"

You all look absolutely beautiful ladies and thanks to everyone whose posting swatches!

Whirl is definitely one of those mlbb lippies, I'll be keeping this one in my purse for touch ups. I gotta get used to AV since I don't have a such a intense brown lippie like it.

oh that's exactly what I imagine Stone to be like on me. We got a similar complexion etc I think. Very twenties flapper girl I really like it. You look pretty with both lippies! And that sweater is so cool!

Pretty I love whirl on you

 

[stephshopaholic]

I wore matte royal with a bit of gunner to make it apply more evenly (matte Royal is a bit patchy) to work yesterday and an old man called me a scary goth chick lol. I guess dark purple lipstick is scary.

Old men know nothing.

:crybaby: Whirl doesn't look good on me like it does the rest of you. Mine turns a slight warm cinnamon brown shade. So disappointed. I really thought that my dark mauve purpley lips would make it more pink but sadly no. It looks bad muddy. sad I LOVE LOVE MLM!

im so sorry elegant I hope u find a way to make it work

Thank you for the swatches!

You are so darn pretty & adorable...it doesn't matter what shade you have on your lips!!! Whirl looks good on you in that pic, I leans more brown on me too. I wish it had more mauve to it.
