MAC Mineralize Rich Lipstick

MAC Barking Gorgeous Mineralize Rich Lipstick ($23.00 for 0.12 oz.) is described as a “light peach.” It’s a light-medium, peachy-orange with warm undertones and fine frosted shimmer. It had semi-opaque coverage at most, and it was somewhat streaky applied. The texture was lightweight, creamy, and hydrating overall, but the color/shimmer pulled into lip lines over the three and a half hours it wore for me.

NARS Peloponnese (P, $26.00) is more shimmery, darker, less glossy (80% similar). shu uemura OB Dream Orange (LE, $30.00) is more shimmery, darker, glossier (80% similar).

MAC Fashion Pack Mineralize Rich Lipstick ($23.00 for 0.12 oz.) is described as a “pale pink nude.” It’s a light, pink-tinted beige with fine pearl. It had semi-sheer to semi-opaque, buildable coverage that applied fairly evenly. I had some issues with the color settling into lip lines after two hours of wear, and the color lasted three and a half hours in total. The formula was comfortable to wear and lightly hydrating.

MAC Labradorable Mineralize Rich Lipstick ($23.00 for 0.12 oz.) is described as a “deep wine.” It’s a dark berry-red with subtle, cool undertones and a luminous sheen. On my skin tone, the red seems to pull forward a lot more than the berry in it, but it may look cooler-toned and less red against pink-toned complexions. It had semi-sheer to semi-opaque coverage, while the consistency had more slip than the other shades so it didn’t apply as evenly as I’d like. This shade didn’t feather on me, but the higher slip may make it prone to feathering on some. It wore for four and a half hours and was lightly hydrating.

It had semi-sheer to semi-opaque pigmentation that applied evenly and smoothly. This was one of the better shades in the five released with this collection. It wore well for almost five hours and was hydrating while worn. Buxom Runaway (P, $21.00) is less shimmery, darker (90% similar).

The coverage varied from semi-sheer to semi-opaque, so it was buildable as it was supposed to be. The texture was lightweight, creamy without being too slippery, and covered with even color.

FORMULA SUMMARY | MAC Mineralize Rich Lipstick ($23.00 for 0.12 oz.) is supposed to be a “lightweight” formula that “nourishes lips with maximum moisture” with “long-lasting colour” that is “buildable” with a “medium-shine finish.” The formula has MAC’s signature vanilla scent but no discernible taste. The majority of the shades I’ve tested in this formula have semi-opaque to opaque coverage, last four to six hours, are hydrating, and feel comfortable to wear. Some shades will leave visible “lines” if you press your lips together, but it varies from shade to shade.
