MAC Lipglass Picks and Swatches
Earlier this spring MAC repackaged their Lipglass ($17 for 3.1 ml/0.10 fl oz). They merged a few of the formulas such as the regular tinted lipglass and lustreglass into one. There are some new shades but a few of the original colors have also made their way into the new packaging, but they aren’t all the same – for example the original Love Nectar isn’t the same as the new one. The packaging itself is larger however it appears product weight has dropped quite a bit. Weight may vary per tube depending on when you got them, but I have a few that say 0.16 fl oz/4.8 ml. This isn’t the first time MAC has repackaged a product and reduced product size/weight – I’m still a little irked about when they redesigned their Pigment packaging with less product, but it hasn’t stopped me from buying new shades. Also they do last a long time so it’s not a deal breaker, more just the principle of price per weight.
I hauled 13 shades but luckily I had quite a few B2M empties to exchange for new glosses. Quite a few had sold out by the time I made my way to the counters and I checked back a few times and many were sold out for weeks. By now I think all the colors have restocked (at least online). A closer look at the packaging. The new tubes have a sleeker more modern look to them.
The shade I picked out are listed and swatched in alphabetical order:
Color descriptions from left to right. They have the same signature MAC lip scent with has a tinge of vanilla but isn’t overly sweet. Sticky level is medium to high but it’s not so tacky that it bothers me as long as I wear an even semi-thin layer.

- Candy Box is a cream medium pink, coverage is medium
- Cultured is a light pink with a slight pearly lilac tinge, coverage is medium

Lip swatches below on bare lips. Note that some of these are on the sheer side so quite a few of them look similar on me. Of course they will look different on you depending on how dark/light your skin is and also what your lip tone is. On the face I’m wearing the Sulwhasoo Perfecting Cushion in No. 25 Deep Beige with NARS All Day Luminous Powder Foundation in Laponie (I also wear Punjab).

Some thoughts about the new packaging and the color options:
- Formula of the Lipglass seems to be the same in texture and pigment. They’re semi-sticky for high shine and on me they do adhere well to the lips which makes them last a decent amount of time.
- The Lustreglass shades seem to be more like Lipglass formulas now. Previously the Lustreglass was a thinner lighter texture with a tiny brush tip applicator and sheer coverage. Beaux and Love Nectar are both slightly different in color compared to their original versions. I haven’t had time to swatch the old vs new. I know I have owned 8 of the shades in the old formula – if you want a comparison I’ll try to see if I can find them (if I didn’t B2M them) and do side by sides. Let me know in the comments.
- Shade wise there are a couple that are really similar. Nympette has more gold than Pinkarat, I prefer Pinkarat just because sometimes I can’t wear a yellow gold easily with my olive complexion. Lust vs Spice depends on your undertone preference, I prefer Lust because Spice pulls orange on me.
- Shades I didn’t like include Steel Kiss and Spite. Both look ok in photographs, especially with a flash. But they have too much mauve/grey undertone to be ok in natural light on me. I can adjust them with a liner or lipstick to warm them up though.
- Prrr is still as frosty as it was in the original formula, but for some reason I find the new one more wearable.
- Oh Baby is a lot more sparkly than I could show in photographs.
- If you want a neutral pinky brown color Lust is your best option. However Chanel Rouge Coco Gloss in Caramel and Caresse have way better formulas and smoother coverage. Swatched side by side here next to both Lust and Spice.
- I try to do all the lip swatching in a post in one session for lighting consistency. Sometimes my lips can get super raw from all the wiping and reapplying. This round I decided to use the Bioderma Hydrabio Cleansing Water and the following days my lips were 100% fine. Disclaimer is that the bottle says it’s for Face and Eyes. No mention of whether or not you can use on the lips so I’m not sure if it’s safe. It worked for me though. Just a tip in case you want to try it.
- Top two picks are Beaux and Cultured for the best color.
Overall I really like the new packaging style (with the exception of the weight drop). Out of all the other color options the only other one I had on my list is Love Child which I love in the original formula. I may pick that one up in the fall as right now I’m not that into plums for summer. Quality and pigment wise I found these consistent with the formula in the original packaging. Colors have changed a bit though. Overall a thumbs up.
You can find the MAC Lipglass at all MAC counters now. Online at MAC, Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue and Ulta Beauty.

Reviews for "Step into the realm of fantasy with Mac Magically Delightful Lipglass: Swatch Fantasyland"
1. Jane Smith - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the Mac magically delightful lipglass swatch. The color looked so vibrant and beautiful in the tube, but when I applied it to my lips, it barely showed up at all. It just left a sheer, sticky gloss that did nothing to enhance my natural lip color. I was expecting a more pigmented and long-lasting product, but unfortunately, this fell flat for me. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a bold lipgloss.
2. John Doe - 2 stars - I had high hopes for the Mac magically delightful lipglass swatch, but it did not meet my expectations. The consistency of the product was too sticky for my liking, and it felt uncomfortable on my lips. The color also appeared different on my lips compared to how it looked in the tube, which was quite disappointing. I found that the product didn't last very long and I needed to reapply frequently throughout the day. Overall, I don't think it's worth the price and I wouldn't repurchase it.
3. Sarah Thompson - 1 star - I absolutely hated the Mac magically delightful lipglass swatch. The color was not flattering at all on my skin tone and looked oddly frosty. It also applied very patchy and uneven, making my lips look like a mess. The texture was incredibly sticky and uncomfortable, and it felt like I had glue on my lips. I tried to give it a fair chance, but it just didn't work for me. I'll be steering clear of this lipgloss in the future.
