MAC Cherry Mochi, For the Frill of It, Heartmelter Lipglasses Reviews & Swatches

Cherry Mochi

MAC Cherry Mochi Lipglass ($17.50 for 0.1 oz.) is a raspberry pink with cool, blue undertones and a cream finish. It had semi-opaque pigment in a single layer, which applied evenly without streaking, but there was slight product that settled into my lip lines. The texture was light-medium in thickness with moderate tackiness, so it has a heavier feel than most modern lipglosses do, though I find that it offers better longevity (five and a half hours) and overall comfort (it was hydrating).

Formula Overview

$17.50/0.1 oz. - $175.00 Per Ounce

The Lipglass formula is supposed to be “pigmented, very shiny and can impart subtle or dramatic color” that can be worn “on its own, over lip pencil or lipstick” and will “condition lips.” MAC could use an update on the description as some shades are more pigmented than others but several are sheerer and likely intended to be that way. The formula has a very glossy, high-shine finish with a light-medium weight and moderate tackiness.

I have found that newer Lipglasses (over the last couple of years) are smoother and not quite as tacky as the formula was many years ago. They wear from three to six hours on me and are usually lightly hydrating. MAC recently updated the shade range and packaging for the range (though the formula was said to be unchanged), so worth noting is that with that packaging change came a reduction in quantity to 0.10 fl. oz. (was 0.17 fl. oz.), which may matter for some but not everyone.

For the Frill of It

MAC For the Frill of It Lipglass ($17.50 for 0.1 oz.) is a pale pink with subtle, warm undertones and fine, multi-colored pearl. It had semi-sheer color coverage in one layer, which applied much more evenly than I expected, and while there was some product in my lip lines, it was so little compared to the “norm” for this type of milky shade. From a normal viewing distance, I didn’t notice the settling at all. The consistency was moderately tacky, light-medium in thickness and heavier than the typical gloss but didn’t feel glue-like or truly heavy to me. It wore nicely for four hours and was moisturizing while worn.

Heartmelter

MAC Heartmelter Lipglass ($17.50 for 0.1 oz.) is a muted, medium mauve with subtle, warm undertones and a cream finish. The pigmentation was nearly opaque in a single layer, and the color went on evenly without emphasizing my lip lines, but it looked bubbly–like there were little pockets where color didn’t come through. It had a light-medium thick texture that was moderately tacky but didn’t feel so heavy that it was uncomfortable to wear. The gloss stayed on well for five hours and was hydrating over time.
