MAC Coral Optix Lipstick ($17.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a bright, medium red with strong, warm orange undertones and pink, gold, and copper shimmer that give it a more metallic finish. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation that applied evenly across the lips and never tugged during application. The consistency was smooth, lightweight, and dense enough not to feel gritty (with all of the shimmer/sparkle). It wore well for five hours, left a faint stain behind, and was lightly hydrating.

MAC Forbidden Romance Lipstick ($17.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a slightly muted, medium-dark plum with warm, brown undertones and pink and gold pearl. It had medium, buildable color payoff that glided on easily and yielded even coverage. The lipstick was lightly emollient with some slip but did not feel thick or heavy, so it did not slide around once applied. It wore well for four and a half hours on me and was lightly hydrating.

Love’s a Gamble
MAC Love’s a Gamble Lipstick ($17.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a light pink with warm, yellow undertones and silver, pink, and gold pearl and sparkle. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that applied fairly evenly to lips. The texture felt grittier compared to other shades as there was quite a bit of sparkle, while the lipstick base seemed thinner and moderately emollient. The lipstick wore well for three and a half hours on me and was non-drying.
