MAC Plumful Lipstick Review, Photos, Swatches

MAC Plumful Lipstick (Rs 990) available at MAC StoresMAC plumfulMAC Plumful Lipstick reviewThis is one shade, I looked for in all the MAC Stores near my place and It was always out of stock surprisingly. Fortunately last month I got the one last piece available in the store !

Shade – MAC Plumful is a beautiful pinky plum shade. Plumful might look more pink on pink/ non-pigmented lips and more plum on pigmented/ dark lips. I have always loved pinky plum shades and it has become one of my go-to shades these days. Plumful initially reminded of Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick Yummy Plummy, but yummy plummy is more plum than pink. MAC Plumful LipstickTexture & Formula – It falls into Lustre finish category by MAC that means the finish will be glossy and formula will be semi-opaque but buildable. I am a big fan of lustre finishes since they can be worn sheer or layered up for an opaque finish. Also they do not make lips dry and give them a plumper/ fuller appearance.

Pigmentation – Like I mentioned its a lustre finish lipstick, thus formula is sheer but buildable. It has better pigmentation than the other lustre finishes I have.MAC Plumful Lipstick swatchesStaying power – It stays on me for good 4+ hours and survives mild snacking. Formula doesn’t settle in fine lines or accentuates them.

Overall Thoughts

This is one beautiful shade. I love how subtle this looks. MAC Plumful needs no special occasion, it can be worn day or night. Though girls with highly pigmented or dark lips may not like the finish. Also those who are looking for long lasting lipsticks can skip this.

    I love this lipstick, it was my first ever MAC purchase and I’ve been wearing it pretty much all the time since I got it 😉 I think it will look even better in the autumn 🙂 I also found a nice (and much cheaper) alternative, not as beautiful as Plumful but still pretty 😉 http://7hillsofbeauty.blogspot.com/2013/07/mac-plumful-alternative.html
