MAC Cosmo lippie

[Hortensia]

Hi ladies,

does anyone know if there is a MAC lippie with satin finish that has the same colour as the COSMO lippie (amplified finish)?

Generally, is there a way to find out if there a similar colours among those different finishes, e.g. according to their place in the colour listings or numbers on each lippie.

I would appreciate your recs. since I don't trust the swatches on MAC's webside.



Thank you so much !

I am also interested. Can somebody swatch it?

 

[Hortensia]

no idea, anyone ?

Please, you expert ladys, try to give some recs.

It's really important !

Thank you so much.

Please can someone swatch it, or describe it a least. I want to order it via net, so I can not see it in person.

hi cipelica,

sorry, I can't swatch it because I don't know how to make swatches.

Despription of COSMO: seems to be a nice MLBB colour - though I was told that it should be more "obvious" (I don't quite understand what that means).

Oh, I need a rec. for COSMO available with SATIN finish, because I appreciate this smooth, silky texture.

I know, there must be a way to find out about MAC's lippie colour system !!

The only problem: who knows it and will tell us beginners ?

What does MLBB mean?

cipelica, if you are a member of Makeup Alley you can see some pictures of Cosmo here:

Hortensia, when I mentioned in the other thread that Cosmo was more "obvious" I meant I didn't think it would really match what you said you were looking for - a lipstick that just gave you perfect lips without anybody being able to tell you were wearing lipstick. On me Cosmo is brighter than that, but everybody's coloring is different. I don't know of any Satin that's the same color, but you might try doing a Live Chat on the MAC web site to ask that.

thank you winthrop44,

now I've understood what you mean with "opaque", thank you for clearing the little problem.

[Hortensia]

Yep, great colour !!

If you like, I could give you some more recs. for MLBB lippies from Mac.

 

[cipelica]

Please do!!!!!

OK, so here is an overview of my best MLLB lipsticks ( Nevertheless, I try to expand my little collection.)

Brave: recently, I've got used to its pearly shimmer, I even think the shimmer is only slightly noticable.; very nice "identical with lips" colour, satin finish makes it stay for hours.

Faux: almost identical with Brave, but without Brave's pearly shimmer and slightly more pinkish-lavender in colour.

Cosmo: a very nice and naturally looking colour, opaque and creamy with amplified finish, this colours is almost identical to my lips - maybe a bit darker. Makes my lips looking very healthy and sophisticated.

Fast Play: nearly the same colour as Cosmo, only one shade darker, great for emphasizing your own lipcolour; though very natural, like lips after kissing.

Midimauve: Lustre finish - perfect for summer looks and tanned complexion. Stylish and sophisticated MLBB colour - mix of mauve and brown with pearly shimmer.

Half n' Half: more beigy, very elegant and neutral colour, stays for hours thanks to amplified finish, looks great with tanned complexion.

Hug me : Lustre finish makes it sheer and glossy, colour is a mixture of peachy and beige. Great when you can't decide what lippie to wear today ...

I hope I could help you and my English is understandable ...

I just wanted to mentioned that Cosmo was a rec from a MAC rep as a pink cousin to my favorite, Brave. Also mentioned was Bare lipshine.
