Applying one of the dark or bright shades straight from the tube is kinda tough because they don’t have a pointed tip like regular MAC lipsticks do, and that makes it difficult to follow your lip contours, especially in the outer corners.įor what it’s worth, a few of the shades have matching Liptensity Lip Pencils (I’ll post swatches of the pencils on Monday). The thing is, though, they’re so intense that you have basically zero room for error when you use them. Not only are they preternaturally pigmented, but they don’t settle into my lip lines.
It’s been a minute since the last time I wore any of these, and this swatch sesh reignited my affection for them again. The MAC Liptensity Lipsticks (now permanent)
Nine of the shades are new, and 13 are re-promotes.
I guess 2016’s limited edition Liptensity collection did pretty well, because the Liptensities are permanent now.
