MAC Huggable Lipcolor collection review - 2015 - Swatches on NC45 Indian skintone

I was only too happy when I received the newsletter about this launch during fall 2015. I wanted to buy these in 2014 fall but they went out of stock. This time I ensured I get my hands on few colors the day they hit MAC stores and I bought 4 shades which I would be posting swatches and pictures here in this post.

They were priced at $20 each. Mac do not call this product as lipsticks but lipcolor. As the name suggests the formula is like Gel. In simple words I would put it as highly pigmented lip balm. Color payoff is opaque and clings on to lips, which is light and non drying. It has the glossy shine to it which wears off soon. Most shades from this collection goes with Indian skin-tone.

Only disappointment is the wear time. It only lasts for 2 - 3 hours as they transfer while sipping or having any drink.  I love this package it's sleek and cool unlike regular black tubes.

1. Commotion - Deep cool plum cream
2. Feeling Amorous? - mid-tonal fuchsia cream
3. Red Necessity - Deep warm wine cream
4. Flaming Lips - Deep Creamy Red

MAC Huggable Lip Color - Flaming Lips - Swatch review on Indian skintone

Hello girls out there !

Beautiful weather out there, I am enjoying the tip tap sound of the rain drops outside my window. Some quality time to write some posts. 

MAC huggable lipsticks - Ah I couldn't purchase this last year as they were sold out. I was only happy when I saw this one online in Nordstorm. I like wearing different red colors these days and I have started experimenting the shades of red on me. 

The red color for 'Flaming Lips' on MAC website looked very inviting and was described as 'Deep creamy red'. The actual color in the tube is different from what's on the website. I totally agree with the gel-like formula which tugs on to lips. 

It's super light, non-sticky, shiny and clings onto  the lips. I wouldn't call it as tinted lip balm, the color pay off is decent. Glides on smoothly while applying. It has MAC's signature vanilla fragrance. The color looks slightly different from tube when applied, it vary from person to person. You might want to wear a lip primer or lip pencil underneath for a long wear. It does transfer, and my lips still had some color on my nude lips after meals. It would survive for about 3-5 hours without drinking/eating.

My take on this - will definitely buy again. I absolutely love the lipstick tube :)

Price : $20.00

I prefer wearing black with red lips, just a personal choice :)
