It looks like one of those lipstick tubes they sell for 10-50 cents a piece.

I actually think this looks better...without the gold

Me too

I think it's so cool! I love anything acrylic. I have been waiting for MAC to do clear packaging, so I'm happy. Dying to find out more about this. This and Guo Pei will get my money.

Same!!!!

I didn't wanna say it, but that's what I thought too.

I agree. It's marginally less hideous.

Further improvement can be achieved by ditching the acrylic

what an ugly cheap looking packaging....

She blurred out the collection name, but look, clear packaging from MAC

I like the idea but not a fan of the gold ?? idk looks odd to me

This cannot be real. I had lipsticks in packaging like that when I was a k id because they were cheap and applied terribly so Mom didn't worry about me wearing them out of the house.. If that's real then what is wrong with MAC?

 

[HappyHippy]

Same! I had the H&M X MMM ones, but ended up selling them since I never wore them. Now I kind of regret it, lol.



I'm surprised that so many people think the packaging looks cheap.

I wanted it all but nothing seemed to fit right. I did managed to snatch the clutch and I am almost over the fact that I didn't bought both colours.

And I am with those who think the clear tube would look better with silver. It would look less tacky and more futuristic. I thought that untill somebody posted the cheap lipstick tube picture.

Nicka K (a $0.99 beauty supply store makeup brand) has this acrylic packaging with silver...whilst I have a lot of love for Nicka K products (ESPECIALLY their Dodgy Girl dupe)...I'd have to take a huge step back from the MAC counter if their lipsticks looked like Nicka K's.

I wish you sold them to me!! I SO wanted those when they came out!

What is this? Vamplify?! grazia_it posted it on IG, but the post seems to be deleted now. Was tagged with @maccosmetics VAMPLIFY.

I get that red is a classic and timeless color, but the red overdose is ridiculous. The Vamplify tube looks like the kissable ones, but I agree about the tacky font. At least it wasn't Comic Sans... The acrylic lipstick looks a DIY in which someone took out the tube and placed it on the acrylic part. It looks wobbly as hell and the gold part looks tacky. It would've been better if the packaging were round and the gold part be chrome or silver.

I agree with you 110%

 

[ramarose]

Wow! Now that is the tackiest packaging I've ever seen! Dollar store quality right there!

My exact thoughts... Reminds me of kids makeup. I wondered if it was fake at first... Should be an easy skip at least

Speaking of kids makeup... this is kind of blowing up in my FB newsfeed today:

I love the idea of clear packaging, but not like that. MAC's literally just copied the packaging of the cheapest make-up available circa 1995. The only way to salvage that is to call the collection Dollar Store and claim it's ironic. It could potentially look cool if it was entirely see-through, including the gold part, or if the gold part had an interesting pattern on it. It would look much better if it was MAC's usual rounded shape, because square acrylic is pretty much the standard for cheap, low quality lipsticks.

The Vamplify packaging looks cheap as hell too.

That's crazy. IDK, how someone can think this is okay.

So agree with you. I bet it will be a bit hit on IG though.
