MAC Macximal Sleek Satin Lipstick offers excellent performance for daily wear or special occasions. Its sleek satin finish provides a comfortable, luxurious feel without being overly glossy or completely matte. The pigment-rich formula ensures that even a single application delivers a strong, vibrant color payoff.
On Lips:
Preparation: For the smoothest application and best color payoff, ensure your lips are exfoliated and hydrated. Apply a lip primer if desired.
Application: Apply the lipstick directly to your lips, starting from the center and moving outwards. For more precision, especially with darker shades, use a lip brush or lip liner.
Layering: For an even more intense color, apply a second layer. Blot gently with a tissue between layers for enhanced wear.
Feathering Prevention: To prevent feathering or bleeding, particularly with bolder colors, outline your lips with a lip liner that matches the lipstick or your natural lip tone.
On Cheeks (as blush):
Small Amount: Lightly dab a small amount of lipstick directly onto the apples of your cheeks or the back of your hand.
Blend: Use your fingertips, a makeup sponge, or a dense blush brush to gently tap and blend the color upwards towards your temples. The creamy texture blends seamlessly into the skin for a natural flush.
Build: Start with a small amount and build up the color gradually to achieve your desired intensity.
This lipstick requires no special setup. It is universally compatible with all skin types and tones. To ensure optimal product longevity and hygiene, follow these care guidelines:
Storage: Store the lipstick in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent melting or changes in texture.
Hygiene: Always apply lipstick to clean lips. Avoid sharing your lipstick to maintain hygiene.
Cleaning: If the lipstick bullet becomes smudged, gently wipe the excess with a clean tissue. Do not use water or harsh cleaners on the product directly.
Cap Securely: Always replace the cap securely after each use to prevent the product from drying out and to protect the bullet from damage.
