MAC Nutcracker Sweet Pink Lipstick Kit Review & Swatches
The new, limited edition MAC Nutcracker Sweet Pink Lipstick Kit is a delightful selection of mini MAC Lipsticks that’s perfect for gifting or getting. Correct me if I’m wrong but has MAC every done a mini Holiday Lipstick Set? I can’t recall!
Check out this little set below!
Ahh the standard Holiday Lipgloss Set! Truly something we makeup addicts look forward to during the Holiday seasons because really who doesn’t want a set that has a selection of our favorite lipglosses. But lipstick? A holiday set featuring several shades of lipstick always seems a little rarer! If you’re a lipstick girl or guy you’ll be quite happy to see this cute little MAC Nutcracker Sweet Pink Lipstick Kit that includes four darling MAC Lipstick minis which are 0.06 oz each.
MAC tucks these minis up tight in a little plastic drawer decorated with a Nutcracker Suite pattern. The packaging is simply brilliant in my opinion because you can reuse it. Tarte, I’m talking to you, why make brilliant packaging that can’t be reused? MAC houses the lipsticks in a removable plastic tray which you can pop out. Pop the tray out and you can use the box to make a little travel makeup kit. Tuck some small brushes inside, lipstick, face powder, etc…you have room to tuck quite a few items inside! I love I can reuse the packaging.
The set includes both matte and amplified lipsticks all of which have excellent pigmentation. All four had a creamy, smooth consistency that didn’t cling to my drier lips and wore for a good five hours. MAC’s Amplified and Matte Lipsticks tend to apply a bit dryly on my lips but these all looked incredibly smooth and didn’t tug during application.
Shades:
- Impassioned (fuchsia) (Amplified)
- Dangerously Red (bright fuschia) (Matte)
- Girl About Town (bright blue fuchsia (Amplified)
- Heroine (bright purple) (Matte)
Needless to say this kit was delightful and worth a pick up if you enjoy bright shades of lipstick! MAC did a great job with the Holiday 2016 packaging and gift sets! I’m looking forward to trying out some more! Just placed an order this morning at Nordstrom 🙂 Reviews on the way!
