I am not a big fan of matte lipsticks, they make my lips dry, and I’m not too fond of that feeling. One of my friends suggested me to try out MAC Lustre Lipsticks collection. These lipsticks are designed to moisturize as well as give a beautiful sheen to the lips. I swatched a couple of shades at the MAC store and ended up buying MAC Lustre Lipstick TOUCH.
MAC Lustre Lipstick Touch is a peachy cinnamon shade, kind of similar to my lip colour. The pigmentation is incredible; two swipes, and you are ready to go. Spreads smoothly like butter and has a beautiful sheen to it. As it is a moisturizing lipstick, unlike matte, it does transfer and has less staying power. It stays on my lips for 3-4 hours if I am not eating anything, and it fades off evenly. You can improve its staying power by using a lip primer before applying it. The lipstick feels super light, and my lips stay hydrated when ever I wear this lipstick.
I am NC 42, and the colour does suits me well. This lip colour looks great when paired with smokey eye makeup. It does transfer and fades away quickly when I eat or drink anything.
Pros of MAC Lustre Lipstick Touch:
- Moisturizing Lipstick
- Provides sheen to the lips
- Good pigmentation
- Lovely Nude shade
- Spreads easily
- Opaque finish in two swipes
- Light on lips
Cons of MAC Lustre Lipstick Touch:
- Transfers
- Expensive
- Low staying power( As it is not Matte lipstick, I am OK with it)
Price: Rs. 1700
CC Rating: 4/5
MAC Lustre Lipstick Touch is a beautiful Peachy Brown everyday lipstick. I love the colour and feel, so the low staying power doesn’t bother me much.
I love that shade. It would work well with a variety of skin tones.
I am so bummed they’ve discontinued it!
