MACximal Silky Matte Lipstick in Ruby Woo excels in providing a striking, long-lasting red lip. Its 12 hours of colour true wear means you can apply it in the morning and expect it to maintain its vibrancy and integrity throughout your day, from coffee to dinner, without constant touch-ups. The creamy blend of coconut oil, organic shea butter and organic cocoa butter genuinely conditions and nourishes lips, preventing the dry, tight feeling often associated with matte lipsticks. This makes it suitable for extended wear, even for those prone to dry lips.
Prepare Your Lips: For the smoothest application and best wear, start with smooth, hydrated lips. Gently exfoliate if necessary.
Prime (Pro Tip): Apply PREP + PRIME LIP before applying the lipstick. This creates a smooth canvas, enhances color payoff, and helps extend wear.
Define (Optional): For precise definition and to prevent any potential feathering, define your lip line with a Lip Pencil in a complementary shade (e.g., Ruby Woo lip pencil) before applying the lipstick.
Apply Evenly: Apply the lipstick directly to your lips, starting from the center and moving outwards. For fuller coverage, apply a second layer.
Layer for Shine (Optional): If you desire a high-shine finish, layer with a clear or complementary Lipglass over the lipstick.
This lipstick is designed to be non-feathering and non-bleeding, non-flaking and non-fading, ensuring a polished look that endures. Its rich pigment means you get full coverage with just a few swipes.
Lip Preparation: Begin with clean, dry lips. For the smoothest application and to enhance wear, ensure lips are well-hydrated. You may gently exfoliate if needed.
Prime: For best results, especially for extended wear and a flawless finish, apply a dedicated lip primer like MAC's PREP + PRIME LIP.
Outline: Use a lip pencil that matches your lipstick shade (e.g., MAC Lip Pencil in Ruby Woo) to outline your lips. This helps prevent feathering and bleeding, especially with vibrant shades.
Apply Lipstick: Apply the MACximal Silky Matte Lipstick directly from the bullet to your lips, starting from the center and moving outwards. For more intensity, apply a second layer.
Blot (Optional): For a stain-like effect or to remove excess product, gently blot your lips with a tissue after the first application.
Lip Primers: Highly compatible with lip primers to enhance wear and smooth the lip surface.
Lip Pencils: Works seamlessly with lip pencils for definition and to prevent feathering.
Lipglass/Gloss: Can be layered with Lipglass or other lip glosses to transform the finish from matte to glossy without compromising the underlying color.
Other Lip Products: Compatible with other lip care products like balms (apply before primer for hydration).
Storage: Store your lipstick in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain its texture and integrity.
Cleaning: If the lipstick bullet collects lint or debris, gently wipe it clean with a soft, clean tissue.
Hygiene: To maintain hygiene, avoid sharing your lipstick with others. If needed, the surface can be gently wiped with an alcohol wipe (avoiding saturating the product).
