MAC Powder Kiss Lipstick Teddy 2.0

Shade : Mull It Over I definitely "mulled over" buying this product and glad I was able to find it on discount at TJMaxx ($8!!). The formula is as nice as I anticipated it to me -- it glides smoothly on application and takes maybe 2 passes to build full color. It's a powder finish instantly on application, but it doesn't affect it's layering ability. I think the finish is beneficial for mask-wearing and in comparison to more balmy/satin finish lipsticks I wear, the powder kiss formula lasts longer. No staining left behind for the Mull It Over color. The finish isn't dry looking like a matte, but not shiny either. Looks pretty velvet-y. Comfortable on the lips, but it does have a slip when you first apply but dries down.

Comfortable on the lips, but it does have a slip when you first apply but dries down. I'm a medium-olive with yellow leaning undertones and this lipstick pulls more peachy on me versus online swatches I've seen look pinker. Before application I exfoliate my lips and use a waxy lipbalm. I've noticed when I don't exfoliate it exentuates dry lip texture. I love how versatile the formula can be, whether I build it to full opacity or lightly apply it. Wears out nicely throughout the day and I don't have a "need" to reapply for it to look good. Would recommend and I look forward to purchasing more shades!

I have dry lips which means I have to be careful in choosing a lipstick that will not add up to the dryness. The formula of Powder Kiss is a match made in heaven for people with dry lips! It is lightweight and gives a soft natural finish. If you want a heavier look you can apply more layers without the feeling of having too much product on your lips. Keep in mind though that it does not stay long on your lips, it can be easily wiped off, which is understandable since the formula is light. Powder Kiss is the perfect everyday lipstick if you’re looking for a non-drying lightweight formula.

The MAC powder kiss lipsticks are not all what I was expecting them to be. They aren’t bad, but they definitely don’t seem like lipstick. They are super comfortable and non-drying, but their matte finish is rather sheer as well. The color that you will get from this lipstick definitely is not the color on the tube because of that. It is buildable, but it’s still not quite the color on the tube. It doesn’t have any long lasting wearability either. So if you are wanting a high pigmentation color, this isn’t for you. However if you would like a hint of color to your lips and a product that feels hydrating like a lip balm, you’ll enjoy the powder kiss lipstick.

Gorgeous colour that lasts

This is a really romantic matte lipstick. The colours are gorgeous with high quality pigment and it’s super flattering. The difference between this powder kiss lipstick and other mattes I have tried is that this is not drying, it has a powdery soft finish that is quite moisturising. I love the natural look of this lipstick and it has a lot of staying power, it’s well worth the price. It’s packaged beautifully and is so light and comfortable to wear I am going to try other shades, it’s one of the better lipsticks I have tried. Mac lipsticks are awesome and this is simply beautiful. I highly recommend this powder kiss lipstick

Hits and misses

i have bought this lipstick in a few shades and the ones that i love are Stay Curious, Sultry Move, Dubonnet Buzz, and Brickthrough. they are all creamy and soft and i can reapply and not have it look cakey. unfortunately, i don't think the formula is consistent. the worst one i have tried is Turn to the Left. i love this shade i think it is perfect for fall but omg the lipstick is horrible. i put it on over clean, smooth lips and it made my lips looked chapped and brought out all the lines in my lips it is not crease resistant. i looked like linda blair it was very bizarre. reapplying was also a nightmare which is not good because you need to constantly reapply for some reason. the other shades are excellent but Turn to the Left is awful.

If They Keep Making It I Will Keep Buying It

I love this. I have extremely dry skin & am a more mature lipstick user. I don’t usually wear matte lipsticks as they are too much for my dry skin. But, this is different. It doesn’t feather or bleed, so I don’t have to keep checking in the mirror. And it stays on, even when it’s worn off. I am now wearing P FOR POTENT. I like the shade RIPENED too, but I had to return it as dried out. Will repurchase eventually as I think I just got a “bad one.” I’m going to try BURNING LOVE next. Hope the texture is the same as the POTENT. The first time I wore this, I looked in the mirror 5 hours later & it was still on. (Mostly) With no feathering or bleeding. Incredible. (I would recommend using a little lip balm underneath.) So if Mac keeps making these, I’ll keep buying these.

Muted Mattes

This is a lipstick with a twist, it really has a powdery finish!. It’s like that technique that was popular back in the day where you would apply lipstick blot it with a tissue, reapply, blot and then apply powder over a single ply of tissue. This does the same thing but with just one swipe. The colour range is amazing. I own 2 colours “ 907 Fall in Love” which is bright pink but more muted on the lips, and “928 Sheer Outrage” which I would describe as a muted peachy colour. The packaging is powder coated like the lipstick, instead of having a shiny case like the original lipsticks. It still has that satisfying click when the lid goes on. I would recommend this lipstick to anyone that loves a matte lip but not a saturated colour.

So light and soft...

Mac is well-known for its amazing array of lipstick shades and formulas, and I love using their lipsticks, I always know it will feel, look and even taste good. This powder-kiss formula really gives a new meaning to the idea of “matte”. MAC’s matte lipsticks are easy to apply and have a very intense colour, but like most mattes, they can be a bit drying. The powder kiss formula is a different take on a matte. It has the full colour of a matte lipstick but is so light and soft on the lips, you hardly know you are wearing lipstick. It doesn’t have that dried-up feeling, and is a perfect daytime formula – a clear pop of colour with muted intensity. I have this lipstick in the shade Reverence – a soft light pink, perfect for work or for a natural make-up day.

neutral about it.

I like the concept of it, it's more silicone based so it feels very lightweight. This formula doesn't have the waxy feel of a matte lipstick but doesn't feel as oily/waxy as a satin for example. The slip it has is much more light feeling. HOWEVER, the lipstick transfers pretty easily. It transfers as much a lustre or glaze. I do enjoy that sort of soft-focus look but if you have deeper lines it doesn't make much of a difference. Another thing I'm not fond of is the pigment. It seems more like a buildable coverage. My issue with buildable is that you'll end up with the creasing aspect of color pooling into the lines and emphasizing them. I don't like that the formula varies by shade. Some crease up more than others, some aren't as pigmented as others. I think MAC ... MoreI like the concept of it, it's more silicone based so it feels very lightweight.

I do quite like "Devoted to Chili" though, looks great for the fall!In general I like the formula, though I feel this formula should have really utilized their nude shades, that soft focus look would look amazing with nude shades for everyday wear especially with this lightweight formula. I'd love to see Yash, Kinda Sexy, Cherish, Angel, Creme Cup, Peachstock and even faux in this formula.
