MAC Versicolor Varnish Cream Lip Stain

I am VERY disappointed in this lip stain. The color does not last more than an hour, and I really hoped for a more neutral shade. I absolutely loved the old stain made by MAC 5+ years ago (photo attached), and I have been waiting patiently for them to bring it or something similar back. The old formula was amazing, it lasted well over 12 hours, and there were a few beautiful, neutral shades. I have not been able to find a replacement product in any other makeup line. I’m still waiting for that perfect lip stain to come back!

I think people don’t get this. It goes on like a creamy, non-sticky, semi-opaque gloss. Once that surface wears off, you have a stain remaining. You can reapply or top w/ a gloss or even a lip moisturizer. It is my absolute fave lip product. Wish they would bring back the nude color they once offered.

No Interruptions is a beautiful color. I'm not a super fan of high gloss, so after applying, I blot, and oh my, the stain is so pretty. Like strawberry plum, but looks natural! Does it last? Not really. I had to re-apply after eating, but that's not a big deal to me. Most lip stains only last a couple hours, if that. My lips feel moisturized which is a lovely bonus.

I bought this and it is not a long wear lip gloss. Very disappointing. Coming from MAC I thought it would hold up to its name bit it does not!

PURCHASED (TRY TO STOP ME- 105) YESTERDAY- NOT LONG WEARING WND NOT FULL COVERAGE. I was assured it was a lip stain, but it is not like any lip stain I've ever tried. It stained my hand, but not my lips. I easily wiped it off. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Love these lip stains! They go on like a lipgloss but give non- drying bold color with a slight stain as they wear off.

It is moisturizing, it does shine in the lips and do not stay . I had given one as a gift to a fiend and and she too did not like the shine and it wears of quickly. Pigmentation is not great either This line of lip colour is not my kind at all. I would not recommend or buy this range again.

I specifically asked the assistant if this would be glossy as I didn't want a gloss. This is really glossy and doesn't stain at all. Really disappointed.

Got it a few days ago. The formula is absolutely anazing, hydrating, glossy, like nothing on the lips. Yet,opaque full on colour! Probably the best i got so far . Thank you Mac. Devoted and happy customer.

I bought this online in the color crushing it thinking I was getting a light peach...instead it came off on the lips as a dark orange almost brown color. I bought many lip stains recently and discovered some are pretty true to the color you see and others you must try on before you buy. I know many of the make up counters will except returns gladly because they know people can’t try stuff on during COVID ...But I am trying to stay out of the stores so unfortunately I threw my money away on this one. The formula is pretty nice so if someone found the right color this would be a win. I’m giving two stars because it’s a decent formula.

My lips have a natural blueish purple tone which makes me look ill.I have chronically dry lips as well. I used to try Korean brands of lip stains, and they made my lips very uncomfortable. Last purchase, I got to select one of these lip stains as a sample. This was my favorite color. I read the reviews before completing my order, and was encouraged that many said that it doesn't dry out the lips. I put it on after washing my face before bedtime and over a bit of Vaseline so that I could wake up looking healthier and not so depressed. I could smell and feel that it was a stain, even though, as others said, there was some gloss to it. It stayed on even after breakfast the next day, and some after brushing my teeth. With a warmer coloring to my lips, I felt less afraid to look in the mirror and more ready to face the day. The color seemed to get bolder in my sleep, as the gloss wore off.

I love this collection and this colour. It doesn't dry out my lip and make it even glossier, fuller naturally. Also it stay on pretty well
