I was fortunate enough to already own the pigments from this collection (hence the old jars pictured) so it was a relatively easy and cheap collection to pick from. I was quite proud to be the first one in my MAC store on release. Within the hour both the MAC store and counter in my local mall were sold out of Punk Couture Lipstick.Here's what I managed to snag...

  • Punk Couture is described as a deep blackened grape.

  • Neo-Orangeis described as a intense neon salmon.
  • Magenta Madnessis described as a intense neon blue pink.
The lipsticks all have a retro matte finish, which I'm a big fan of, if only my lips weren't constantly chapped. The colors are deep, dark and beautiful; perfect for autumn! It leaves me wishing this collection was released in the fall rather than mid-winter. The lipsticks themselves are a tad creamier than your typical retro matte finish, which was nice. They don't tug or pull when applying. I recommend pairing with a lip liner to avoid feathering or uneven wear. The matte finish makes these lipsticks long-lasting, and I did have some staining with the darker shades.
The pigments will always be my favorite MAC product. True Chartreuse is my favorite color, ever. These pigments are matte, so they can be a little more difficult to work with (hence being a PRO Product), apply unevenly/chalky and wear away when trying to blend. In the jars, the product is finely milled, soft and just all around beautiful and bright! Matte pigments aren't recommended to use wet, they become patchy, so they do take some practice.
