- Q
Will it blur out the lip lines and look good smuged out with a lip liner?
- Asked by Brina
- Official Answer By MACGreat question! MAC Retro Matte Liquid Lipstick delivers bold, longwear color with a true matte finish—perfect for a defined look, but it can also be paired with a lip pencil for a smudged or blurred effect. For best results, let the lipstick fully set before applying your lip pencil—this helps it grip the lips without skipping or sliding. To smooth the look of lip lines and create a flawless edge, try applying MAC Prep + Prime Lip around the perimeter before color. It preps, blurs, and keeps everything looking polished.Was this answer helpful to you

I LOVE this product but the only color that has worked for me is So Me which is discontinued. I love it so much I've scoured Poshmark and bought as much as I could find but I am running out. Is there a color that's close at all? Topped with Brandy looks the closest on the screen but it's hard to tell for sure.

Stays on through drinking, eating and dancing!
I've been on the hunt for a liquid lipstick that will hold up all day, especially something that will last through eating, drinking, and performances (I'm a dancer). This lipstick is my new favorite! It lasted at least 9 hours with one application: through a dress rehearsal, a performance, lunch, di...

Great color HORRIBLY UNLASTING
I was so in love with this product when it first came out that I literally made a youtube account to make a rave review video of this because it went on so smooth and easily...BUT, after not even wearing it for a half of a day I had to find a store to use the sample and touch it up. I have given it ...

Comments about Feels So Grand
This lipstick needs serious improvement. I was really frustrated to find that I could spend half the price on another brand and get a much better product. At this price point, the quality just isn't acceptable. First off, the applicator feels incredibly cheap—like a Q-tip. The formula itself is drying and uncomfortable; I constantly had to lick my lips just to keep them from cracking. Hate to say it, but Mil… has a similar product that completely outperforms this one. The application is smoother, the color payoff is richer, and it actually hydrates your lips. MAC, do better. I'm sticking with Ruby Woo, but I won't be trying any of your other lip products—sale or not.

Comments about High Drama
Okay WOW! What a color! Talk about drama all for the right reasons! Wore this on date night and girls night. Got so many compliments, even had a couple of random girls ask me what color I was wearing. Such a BOLD color. Wore it with a silk white shirt and OMG did my face just say it all with my color. Definitely will be restocking. If you are not afraid of bold statement colors, this is your go too! So smooth, wore it for hours and even after dinner and drinks it was still on. Does not smear easy, did not flake or even dry my lips! WORTH all the hype!

Comments about High Drama
At first I was skeptical being it liquid. Let me tell you I was WRONG! This went on smooth and the flat brush is amazing. The lipstick just glided on. Had it on all day, had my morning tea, breakfast and lunch and its still ON... And what an amazing color for day or night. I wore it with a white button up to work and got so many compliments with this shade on my brown skin. I put this on only with blush and mascara and it still was wow. I can only imagine if I had my full face on. Definitely WORTH the purchase. I didn't even wear the lip primer just to see if it will be flaky and to my surprise no flakes at all! No dry lips, nothing! Sale price and color cannot beat it. I will definitely restock. Definitely bold statement color!
Love this color! Its a lovely subdued red.
Goes on smooth, easy to follow lip line. I do wipe excess off of the applicator and apply in layers. Or I just do a lip stain with a little gloss. So its versatile. I love the tone, not too red, orange, pink or brown. It's a balanced color on me. Definitely would buy again. The Retro Matte line is awesome.
Excellent 10/10
