MAC Decadence & Most Curious Locked Kiss Ink Lipcolours Reviews & Swatches

MAC Decadence Locked Kiss Ink 24HR Lipcolour

Decadence

MAC Decadence Locked Kiss Ink 24HR Lipcolour ($33.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a darker pink with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish.

  • Mostly opaque, buildable pigmentation
  • Lightweight, thin consistency that spread evenly + easy to control
  • Was more forgiving than typical liquid lipstick of texture/lines
  • Dried down within a minute, flexible feel
  • Shorter wear (6 hours, survives one meal), non-drying; not close to 24-hours as marketed

Formula Overview

$33.00/0.14 oz. - $235.71 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to be "long-wearing and transfer-proof" with "24 hour" wear that has a matte finish and feels like a "flexible, breathable veil of full-coverage, rich matte colour." Most shades had semi-opaque to opaque coverage with lighter shades sometimes being sheerer compared to some of the darker shades. The texture was very lightweight, thin but less clingy than the Retro Matte liquid lipsticks and has a less substantial feel overall.

These dry down quite quickly (almost as I am applying), but they are fairly forgiving as they dry without getting into a semi-tacky phase, which also made them easier to build up if necessary for full coverage. The thinner texture seemed to make them less prone to emphasizing lip texture or "cracking" when I smiled after the dry down.

I think they are less long-wearing, though, than the brand's Retro Matte liquid lipsticks, which deliver a similar matte finish and dry down from its liquid state. The Locked Kiss Ink formula was easier to maneuver, more forgiving to apply, and was more comfortable to wear overall.

Most shades lasted between five and seven hours with a few getting closer to eight, but I wouldn't say they are 24-hour wear products as they don't make it through two meals at all. They will make it through one meal fairly intact but start to transfer after a meal.

It is also supposed to be easy to remove, though the brand says to use their cleansing oil to do so, which is an effective type of cleanser to remove most makeup, but this formula wasn't noticeably easier to remove than most liquid lipsticks that dry down. It certainly wasn't the hardest to remove, though.

There was a faint vanilla scent but no discernible taste.
