Mac always play safe and same is the case with one of its lipsticks named “Dangerous”, yes the name might sound something really dangerous, a shade that one can hardly wear, but no, it is a bright Orangey red lipstick that instantly brightens up the face and is very wearable!
So, today it is my first post on Cosmochics and I am really excited to be “Dangerous”…oh mean to flaunt Mac Retro Matte Lipstick Dangerous… I am using the word ‘dangerous’ a lot as today’s limelight goes on the most beautiful shade from Mac retro matte collection.
Price: – Rs.1190/- OR $16 USD
Quantity: 3gm/0.1 o.z
Ingredients refer to the picture below:-
Mac claims:- ‘Inspired by Ruby Woo’s overwhelming popularity and one-of-a-kind texture, M•A•C introduces new bold shades in its Retro Matte finish. Eye-catching colours like Dangerous and All Fired Up create a look that’s fiercely feminine. M•A•C also premieres Pro Longwear Lip Pencils in a vibrant colour palette, giving this long-lasting and transfer-proof lip pencil an exhilarating makeover. ‘
Colour plus texture for the lips.Stands out on the runway. Simmers on the street! What made M·A·C famous.
A little info about Mac retro matte lipsticks:-
Few months back Mac launched Retro matte lipsticks which are true matte colors. The matte collection comprises of eight lovely shades among which “Dangerous” is one of them. The shade is a bright matte orange with red undertone.
My Experience With Mac Retro Matte Lipstick Dangerous
Talking about the packaging first the lipstick comes in the usual black case which is similar to the permanent line and thank god for that as Mac always hike the prices when it comes in limited edition packaging! And paying extra for that sometimes may burn a hole in one’s pocket. What really matters is the texture of the lipstick and not the packaging…right!
When this was launched there were rumors that it might be permanent soon while few SA told me that they are not sure about it but finally the “Retro collection” is now permanent and one can easily grab it from store if they have it in stock.
I have very sensitive nose which is why the smell or scent of lipsticks bothers me a lot and that’s why I can’t wear lipsticks of few brands due to the scent but “Mac lipsticks” has their signature vanilla fragnance which hardly stays few minutes after application.The fragrance is mild and do not bother my sensitive nose.
Next is the texture of these lipsticks which was the most controversial part of “Retro matte lipsticks”.
Many bloggers love it while some don’t as the texture is really dry than the regular matte range lipsticks. I am personally a big fan of matte lipsticks so the texture was super cool for me. The lipstick glides easily on lips but after sometime one might feel the dryness on lips as the lipstick has the drier texture. So I would suggest you all that before applying these “retro mattes” exfoliate and moisturize your lips well. This way it won’t accentuate the fine lines of the lips and the even layering of the lipstick will spare you from the horror.
The staying power of the lipstick is really great. It stays 5-6 hours on my lips and survive small meals and drinks too, and they also survive heavy oily meals with slight bit of fading on the inside part of the lips and on the corners. So I prefer re-application after meals. It also has awesome pigmentation. One swipe will give you fully opaque and excellent color pay off.

COSMOCHICS RATING– 4/5
“INFO ON A SILVER PLATTER”- All in all Mac lipstick Dangerous is the shade which is really bright so you need to go neutral with makeup so that the lipstick doesn’t look in-your-face, apart from this it is a nice shade and perfect for night parties and true to its name “Dangerous”!!!
