MAC Cremesheen + Pearl Lipsticks in Saigon Summer, Coral Bliss, and Pink Pearl Pop

MAC Cremesheen + Pearl Saigon Summer, Coral Bliss, and Pink Pearl Pop
Not too long ago MAC released a collection of lipsticks and cremesheen glass available in soft pearlesq shades called Cremesheen + Pearl. I was really thinking about passing on this collection altogether due to the fact that these lipsticks and cremesheens are pretty sheer. What kind of Cosmeholic would i be if i couldn't step out of my box, even a little, every now and then. I decided to only buy three colors just to try it out, and you know what? I love them! They are just pigmented to show a nice pop of color and just sheer enough to not over power any of the other makeup you may be wearing.,

These lipsticks are apply evenly but there is a bit of settling into the creases of the lips. They can appear milky depending on the shade (see below). I feel they sit on the lips like a lightly tinted moisturizing lipstick but that is my personal opinion. These lipsticks have a glossy sheen.


Saigon Summer-
Shimmery pearl orange with medium to light pigmentation. I applied several swipes of the lipstick to achieve the color in the swatches. With one swipe it is a light shimmer of orange, add more for deeper color. Even with multiple swipes the coverage is still even. This orange can lean on the red side when applied heavier but it is not a red orange.

 Coral Bliss-
This soft pink color has flecks of pearl that are visible in person and not so much in my swatches. Just as mentioned above the more you swipe the more color you get. This shade is mildly milky and will settle into the creases of your lips when applying heavily.

Pink Pearl  Pop-
This easily became one of my favourite pinks even after just trying it on for the first time. The glossy look, the pearl flecks, the blueish undertones, it is just so soft. It reminds me of shade that would be popular in the 60's and the retro feel just adds to how much i like it

 The best news about these shades and the entire Chremesheen + Pearl Pink Pearl Pop collection is that they are all permanent shades! You can pick them up at your local MAC store or here!

    1. Well the lipstick has a cremesheen finish, i guess if you blotted it to take away the sheen of it, it would still be the same color.
      Yes the pictures are under different lighting. One is with flash and one is without.
      thank you!
