MAC Chili Lipstick

Price

INR 900/1500

My experience with MAC Chili Lipstick

Packaging

The packaging of the mini version lipstick is exactly the same as the original size. Classy black tube with the branding. The only change is that the original comes in a box and the mini version comes in a little zip lock bag.

Texture

It has a very satin-like smooth texture so application is very easy. It glides onto the lips with ease.

Shade

Chili, like the name, suggests…the shade is an orange-ish red. It’s more like a burnt brick shade, that suits most skin tones

Staying Power

Although the lipstick transfers, it does last for a long long time.

Transfer Proof

Sadly, Chili is transfer proof and goes onto the glass while drinking. Which means that it also fades off a little in the process.

Finish

Chili is a creamy texture like I’ve already mentioned. But a couple of minutes after applying, it settles into a matte.

Moisturizing

Thanks to the creamy texture of this lipstick, it is very moisturizing. It doesn’t dry out the lips or settle into any fine lines.

Pricing

I’ve always felt that the pricing of Mac can be a little better. For the quantity, 900 might be a bit much.

Pros
  1. Decent packaging
  2. Smooth texture
  3. Easy application
  4. Moisturizing
  5. Nice shade
  6. Settles into a matte
  7. Long lasting
Cons
  1. I wouldn’t say this is a complete negative…but the brand could work on the pricing. I know that it is about quality, but for the quantity of the Little Mac, INR 900 is a little high.
  2. Not transfer proof
Would I repurchase & recommend?

Yes, I definitely would. And if Chili is your shade and you’re okay with spending a little, go for it!
