Anti-slip mat for your lips

Oh, I do so LOVE this product! This was introduced to me by a MAC artist when I was in-store looking for a matte red lipstick. I'm not usually someone who does much with her lips. A bit of gloss here, some cremesheen there, nothing fancy. Having said that, looking for siren red lipstick for a "new ...

Terrible.

I first purchased this primer over two years ago and after losing it, bought it again two months ago. When I first purchased it I noticed that my lips were getting chapped to the point that if I didn't wear lipstick my lips looked terrible, but I didn't think it was due to the primer. Fast forward t...

I've been using the MAC Lip Primer for a while now, and it has made a noticeable difference in how my lip products apply and wear throughout the day. The texture is lightweight and smooth, so it doesn't feel waxy or heavy under lipstick. It creates a soft, even base that helps my lipstick glide on easier, prevents feathering, and keeps the color from settling into fine lines. I especially appreciate that it keeps my lips feeling hydrated without changing the finish of whatever lip product I put on top—matte lipsticks stay matte, and glossy formulas stay shiny.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Leaves lips moisturized and lipstick stays in place

I have dry skin and normally my lipstick cracks when I wear it. This primer moisturizes my lips and minimizes cracking. It leaves them buttery soft, and my lipstick doesn't budge. It feels like a lip treatment that just happens to help with lipstick.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Doesn't do much

It doesn't do much. It's like a lip balm that you can get anywhere. It doesn't make the lipstick last long but just smoothes it. I'd rather take care of my lips than use the product.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Comments about Prep + Prime Lip Primer Base - 0.050 oz

Picked this up due to a reccomendation to use it under the eyes to improve the wear of concealer, but am surprised by how much I love it as a lip primer - really seems to extend lipstick wear time, and I love the feeling of it sealing moisture into my lips for the day.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Q
Is this formula sort of matte? I dont like it when im using a matte lipstick and it makes it shiny.
Asked by Missy
Official Answer By MAC
We're glad you asked! MAC Prep + Prime Lip is hydrating and will leave a shine on the lips as it goes to work in priming, smoothing and hydrating. We always recommend letting this lipstick primer sit in your lips for a few minutes and blotting off completely with a tissue before you go to apply your matte lipstick. This primer pairs so well with all of our matte formulas including Matte, Powder Kiss and our new Locked Kiss Ink 24 Hour Lipstick!Was this answer helpful to you

Q
Is this safe to use on the eyelids as a base for sparkly shadow? Similar to the pat McGrath intensifEYES stick? I know it is a lip primer but wondering if it is safe to use near eye area as well.
Asked by Linz
Official Answer By MAC
Our apologies that we are not able to recommend MAC Prep + Prime Lip Primer as a base on your eyes. We'd love for you to consider MAC Prep + Prime 24-hour Extend Eye Base as a great base for sparkly shadow! This helps to prolong the wear of eye makeup by 24 hours, keeping your makeup colour true and sweat-resistant. Apply all over eyelid. Allow to dry for a minute before the application of your eye makeup!Was this answer helpful to you
Q
Can this primer be used with a lip pencil as well as a lipstick?

Q
Would this make the lipstick or lip glass appear more vibrant on my dark lips?
Asked by Jazz
Official Answer By MAC
Great question! MAC Prep + Prime Lip Primer is a colour-free lipstick base that adds light moisture and smooths the lips, it does not colour correct lips. For colour correcting tips, we invite you to visit your local ULTA store and chat with a Beauty Associate. Was this answer helpful to you
