MAC Antonio Lopez: 3 Lips Palette in Nude

on
Wednesday, September 18, 2013

Last Thursday, MAC released a new collection featuring the works of Antonio Lopez. It is inspired by "this legendary fashion illustrator's vibrant energy, brazen attitude, and love of life." Antonio Lopez is comprised of 12 new and limited edition products —10 of which will be available at all locations, one of which is available at MAC Stores only, and one of which is online exclusive. Antonio Lopez will see the release of three lip palettes, each of which include three shades of lipstick and a mini 316SE brush. "Each palette displays the fiercely individual face of one of his muses, 'Antonio's girls,' while each product's packaging features an exclusive drawing by the artist." Each lip palette contains 3.75 grams of product, and retails for $33.

Vivid Image is a light-medium warm milky pink and a subtle sheen in an Amplified finish. This is a new and limited edition shade. The texture is soft and creamy, and it goes on smoothly and evenly. It has high pigmentation and opaque colour pay-off. It is lighter than Creme Cup, and warmer and slightly darker than Dreaminess Mineralize Lipstick.
Antonio's Girls is a medium pinked peach in a Satin finish. This is a new and limited edition shade. The texture is soft and creamy, and it goes on smoothly and evenly. It has high pigmentation and opaque colour pay-off. It is slightly lighter than Shy Girl, and slightly darker and more peach than To the Future! Pro Longwear Lipcreme.
Art Directed is a medium warm beige with multi-coloured shimmer in a Glaze finish. This is a new and limited edition shade. The texture is soft and creamy, and it goes on smoothly and evenly. It has low-medium pigmentation and semi-sheer colour pay-off. It is more pink than Frou, and lighter and less brown than Gleam.

Despite all three colours being new and limited edition, I wouldn't say that this palette is a must-have by any means just because MAC has so many similar shades in their permanent range. That having been said, I like that this palette encompasses different types of nude shades — a pink nude, a peach nude, and a beige nude — so you can wear them on their own or mix them to create custom nude shades to suit your preferences. The only drawback to this palette is that I find they're more suited towards fair to medium skintones; those with darker skintones than that will find these a bit too light to use as nude shades.
