MAC Cremestick Liner in ‘Red Enriched’
Mac Cremestick Liner Red Enriched
Jenay, the sweetheart who works at the MAC counter at the Summit Sierra, was wearing this really stunning red lipstick yesterday. I had to have it (did I mention my obsession with red lipsticks?) and she told me that it wasn’t a lipstick, but a liner! Artcam 2015 crack. MAC Cremestick Liner in ‘Red Enriched’ to be exact. I’d never thought about using a liner as a full lip color before and became enchanted with it!
MAC Creamola is a permanent lip liner that retails for $15.00 and contains 0.009 oz. Jump to a particular section if you know what information you're looking for! I came up with the perfect color for me, Pink Treat, MAC Cremestick Lip Liner. Then 6 months later MAC discontinued that color and I think the whole line. The being here who is selling this for the rediculous price of $158 must be some greedy being that believes if they screw other humans for their own benefit, it. A creamy retractable lip liner Prevents feathering & bleeding of lipstick Highly pigmented for incredible effect Ultra light & smooth for application Long lastingProduct Line: Mac - Lip Liner - Cremestick LinerProduct Size: 0.25g/0.009oz.
You get .009 ounces for 14.50. That’s an okay price to pay for a lip liner. Most lip liners cost between $16-19 and give you around .03 ounces for that price. But this is a really creamy, lovely liner, and I’d say it’s worth it. If you’re using this over your whole lip, like I am, it won’t last you a long time, but it will give you a few months of incredible lips! And that’s only if you use it regularly- this particular red is more of a “special occasion” red and will last me even longer.
The Cremestick Liner is a mechanical pencil-styled lip liner, a lot like the MAC Technakohl liners they sell (my favorites!). The point stays small and sharpened, which is lovely, and it comes in 11 different colors. It definitely goes on smooth and creamy, and the small, pointed tip gives me absolutely precise control. It’s hard to go outside the lines with this! And wow, the pigmentation is so intense! ‘Red Enriched’ is a very dark, intense red. As always, the www.maccosmetics.com swatch looks totally wrong, claiming it to be a rich auburn color that looks much brighter than it actually is. Don’t let it fool you- this is a rich, dark red, not a bright auburn.
Jenay had applied her lipcolor that morning and hadn’t reapplied, even after eating, drinking, and talking. The middle of her lips looked devoid of color, like it had rubbed off, but the peaks of her lip and the outline of her bottom lip still had a lot of color. Of course, the color had worn off a bit, so it was more of a muted red than an intense dark red. But it still looked great! It really gave a lot of contrast to her lips and still made them look very pretty, and they looked more natural with all the fading. So it goes to show that you don’t need to constantly touch-up with this, which I’m happy about.
The liner dried out on my lips pretty quickly, but then again, my lips are always dry like the desert (which I live in, and hate). It flaked off tiny pieces of dark red liner when I drank and blotted my lips, but it never smudged or smeared on my skin. In fact, it lasted incredibly well all day long. But the dryness bothered me, and I could really feel the tightness of the liner on my dry lips. Lucky for me, this did NOT highlight the chaps in my lips. And it didn’t dry my lips out at all- my lips just happened to be horribly dry all by themselves. Now, this looks super matte when applied by itself. Really intense, dark color that gave me a polished, classy look! I felt like a diva from the 1950s wearing ‘Red Enriched’. It would look even better with a black dress and a smoky eye, but it also looked just fine with my ripped jeans and white tanktop.
Mac Cremestick Liner Discontinued
I experimented with this a bit. I tried using a balm over top to lighten my dryness. It picked the color up of the liner and made it look a little brighter and shinier. Though it left a few tiny crumbs of dry liner on the balm, it didn’t take off the color from my lips. This stuff really stays! Then I tried using my tokidoki Prisma Gloss in ‘Donutella’ on it for more intense shine and moiturizing. I know, that’s a really odd mix. ‘Donutella’ is a nude-tinted shiny gloss, and on a normal day I’d never pair it with a matte red lipstick, but I didn’t have any other glosses on hand. It turns out that the mix worked well! The Prisma glosses are super sheer, and since the ‘Red Enriched’ liner was so matte and dark, it just gave a super shine to it. It made my dry lips happier, and it helped the liner color last longer. But I’d rather go with a different gloss next time. Maybe Urban Decay’s XXX Shine Lip Gloss in ‘Ozone’ (a totally clear gloss)?

Really, the downsides of this are few. It feathers a bit, but I’d pair this with DuWop Reverse Lip Liner to keep it in check. And the feathering isn’t bad- it isn’t going to look like your red color is trying to crawl off your face. It flakes off a bit when eating and drinking, but it still stays really well. I only had to touch up once all day! And how the people did stare…
Mac Cremestick Liner Beurre
I really love this liner, and I’m absolutely ready to go back to MAC and pick up a bunch more colors. Remember that a reverse lip liner would work really well with this dark red, and a clear gloss or balm will help the color last longer and keep your lips feeling hydrated.
