MAC Date-Maker & Mull It Over Powder Kiss Liquid Lipcolours Reviews & Swatches

MAC Date-Maker Powder Kiss Liquid Lipcolour ($24.00 for 0.17 oz.) is a medium-dark peach with moderate, warm undertones and a satin finish. It had opaque color coverage in a single layer, but the consistency was more prone to gathering along imperfections and sank a touch into my deeper lip lines.

When I pressed my lips together, it seemed to pill up a bit, too. I tried to apply product just to the center of my lips (especially working around the curvature of the cupid’s bow), and then I used my fingertips to pull and diffuse product outward, it applied much more smoothly and didn’t pill or ball up at all. The consistency felt velvety, smooth, and thicker without being heavy, though I felt like it clung a bit so I was more aware that the product was on my lips for the first few hours of wear. It lasted for five and a half hours and felt non-drying over time.

Formula Overview

$24.00/0.17 oz. - $141.18 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to be long-wearing ("10 hours'") with "immediate" moisture while "[blurring] lines and [smoothing] lips" that doesn't settle, crease, flake, or feel drying. Per the brand, one applies using the "hourglass-shaped applicator."

The texture has a more velvety, thicker feel that spreads well and feels plusher with more of a silicone-like glide (if you've tried a silicone-based primer, the feel of it on the lips was similar but creamier). The applicator worked well for applying and distributing product evenly, but it gathered more product than necessary for my lips in a single pull of product to the point where I felt like it over-applied product to the detriment of application.

I had better luck applying product my upper lip (especially around the cupid's bow, as the applicator was better for getting this area) and then pressing my lips together and/or using a fingertip to diffuse and spread out the product to the rest of my lips. This ensured that there wasn't too much product on my lips; too much resulted in the product pilling a bit and being uneven, especially along the inner area of my month, prone to getting on teeth, and sometimes catching on lip texture/imperfections. For reference: all swatch photos are as-applied with the included applicator only.

They were pigmented with most shades being nearly opaque to opaque but a few that fell slightly below. For a more diffused look, you'd want to apply with fingertips or just to the center of the lips and then use a brush or fingertips to blow out the color. The colors went on fairly evenly, and I found most of the time where it did not, it was an issue with an over-application of product (despite just using one pull of product!) and the formula was more forgiving when applied with less product (but that still was plenty to cover my lips with near-full coverage!).

They mattify over time--as the color wore away--and are more transfer-resistant at that point, but the formula itself is a more flexible, though I could definitely feel it on, and has a more satin-like finish for the first couple of hours of wear. I'd recommend blotting gently on the back of your hand (less likely to get tissue bits on your lips that way) to soften and mattify faster, if desired.

The lighter shades didn't wear away as evenly and had more noticeable wear along the center of my lips, while the more mid-tone and deeper shades lasted longer and more evenly as they tended to stain a bit. The wear ranged from five to eight hours, but the formula wasn't providing any "immediate" moisture for me, and after wearing a lot of shades back-to-back, my lips were slightly dehydrated.

MAC Mull It Over Powder Kiss Liquid Lipcolour ($24.00 for 0.17 oz.) is a muted, medium coral-orange with strong, warm undertones and a satin finish. It was richly pigmented with a smooth, more velvety texture that was thick and plush without being tacky or heavy, though the way it clung a bit to my lips made it more noticeable that it was on my lips.

The product applied evenly, but there was a touuch of color that sank into my deeper lip lines, and there was a tendency for the color to pill up a bit along the inner area of my lips. This was less likely to occur if I applied less product, which is why I struggled to work with the included applicator as it was very easy to apply more product than necessary. This shade stayed on for five and a half hours and felt a touch drying over time.
