For Lips: Expect a rich, sleek satin finish that makes lips look fuller and feel conditioned. The 'Film Noir' shade offers a dramatic black, perfect for bold statements or creative makeup looks.
Prep: For best results, ensure lips are smooth and exfoliated. You may wish to use a lip primer for extended wear or a lip liner for precise definition, especially with darker shades like 'Film Noir'.
Apply: Start by applying the lipstick from the center of your upper lip, following the contours of your mouth.
Fill: Glide across the entire bottom lip. For fuller coverage, blot lightly and apply a second layer.
For Cheeks (Monochromatic Gleam): This lipstick's creamy texture allows it to be used as a cheek tint for a subtle, monochromatic flush.
Dot: Lightly dab a small amount of product onto the apples of your cheeks.
Blend: Using your fingertips, a brush, or a sponge, gently tap and blend the color outwards towards your temples until seamlessly diffused. Start with a tiny amount and build up if more color is desired.
Setup (Initial Use): Your M.A.C Macximal Sleek Satin Lipstick is ready to use directly from its packaging. Simply remove the cap and twist the base to reveal the lipstick bullet. The MAC-embossed bullet is a design feature and will gradually wear down with use.
Compatibility: This lipstick is formulated for use on lips and cheeks. Avoid use in the eye area. It is compatible with various skin types due to its hydrating and conditioning ingredients.
Care & Storage:
Storage: Store the lipstick in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Heat can soften the bullet, making it prone to breaking or melting.
Cleaning: If the bullet or case gets dirty, gently wipe it with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Hygiene: To maintain hygiene and product integrity, always recap the lipstick after use. Avoid sharing your lipstick with others.
