The M.A.C Macximal Sleek Satin Lipstick in 'In The Clear' excels as a daily hydrating lip treatment and a subtle finishing touch. On the lips, it glides on effortlessly, immediately imparting a feeling of comfort and smoothness, thanks to its balmy blend of pomegranate flower extract, camellia seed, and rosehip oils. The finish is a sophisticated, sleek satin that enhances your natural lip texture without adding any color. This makes it ideal for:
Everyday Hydration: Use it as your go-to clear balm for continuous moisture throughout the day.
Lip Primer: Apply it before your favorite colored lipstick to create a smooth, hydrated base, which can help with color application and comfort.
Subtle Gloss Alternative: Achieve a polished, non-sticky gleam without the high shine of a traditional gloss.
Cheek Gleam: For a cohesive, monochromatic look, dab a small amount onto the high points of your cheeks. Blend gently with your fingertips to achieve a healthy, subtle gleam that catches the light naturally.
Its lightweight texture ensures it feels barely there, while its conditioning ingredients work to keep lips supple and soft. The signature vanilla scent adds to the luxurious experience.
Initial Use:
Remove the cap from the lipstick.
Gently twist the base of the lipstick to expose a small amount of the product (about 1/4 to 1/2 inch).
Apply directly to lips or cheeks as desired.
Compatibility:
Lips: This lipstick is designed for all lip types, providing hydration and a sleek finish. It can be worn alone, under other lip products as a primer, or over them for added shine and moisture.
Cheeks: Compatible with most skin types for a subtle, natural gleam. Apply a small amount and blend carefully.
Care and Storage:
Storage: Store the lipstick in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, to prevent melting or changes in texture.
Cap: Always replace the cap securely after each use to protect the product from dust and drying out.
Cleaning: If the bullet becomes smudged, gently wipe the excess with a clean tissue. Do not use water or harsh cleaners on the product itself.
