Review of MAC Matte Lip Collection Lipstick Pander Me

Check available space mac. By Contributor: Aditi

Okay so all of you kylie jennner fanatics (including me) who have been going to every nook and corner for the kylie jenner lip color, MAC just got all of you!! You can just go rob 1450 bucks from somewhere and rush to your nearest MAC store and buy PANDER ME, get your kylie lip and rest in peace like I am. Few days ago MAC matte lip collection came out and PANDER ME which I will review and swatch today is a part of it. So I grabbed LAVIE EN ROUGE and PANDER ME from this collection.

On their site, MAC describes 'Pander Me' as a 'soft peachy mocha.' The description is what caught my initial attention back when I first heard about the collection. Soon pictures started popping up, though, and I started seeing a brown and an orange and, overall, a color I wasn't completely into. Auto mouse clicker mac. Mac os x history.

MAC Claims: The Matte Lip is here to stay. Create a standout look with the fashion-forward new shades of our iconic matte lipstick. Vibrant hues like fuchsia Velvet Violet and La Vie En Rouge are a bold contrast to the rich burgundy of Fashion Revival and nude of Styled in Sepia. For the best in colour intensity, Pro Longwear Lip Pencils in super-saturated shades to make a modern statement. Go for the cool rouge of Trust in Red or boost it up with new Bespoken For, a dark, creamy plum. For a polished finish, accent with the soft, pinky hues of Pro Longwear Blush – long-lasting colour that's purely fabulous.

My Review:

  • You can see Pander Me's real-life affinity with actual terracotta in the above right pic, a shade which is paler than many imagine. It is not a pink and only reads remotely that way in cool shade, really. Compare it to MAC Mehr and you'll see they're not in the same family.
  • MAC Retro Matte Lipstick in 'Pander Me' Christina 3:02 AM.

Shade: Mac Pander Me is an antique rose color or a rosy beige, on our Indian skin tones it looks more brown, to describe it exactly its a brown with rose undertones. If you always are on a look out for nudes that won't wash you out then Pander Me could be a good choice.

Pigmentation: opaque in one swipe, this is with all the lipstcks in the range.

Texture: As the name suggests, its matte in finish but creamy at the same time. It feels really light on the lips, after a few hours you would feel as if its not there on your lips at all but certainly it is there. Doesnt feel drying on lips.

Packaging: Despite being a new LE collection, it comes in the regular black mac packaging. I hate this, continously mac has been releasing collections with the regular packaging.

Staying power: For the staying power, I would say its anywhere between 5 to 6 hours and since its almost my lip colour so after 4 hours or so its not very clearly detectable but you can still feel a tint.

Pros of MAC Pander Me Matte Lipstick:

  • Comes in my favourite matte finish.
  • The iconic kylie jenner lip color
  • Would suit Indian skin tones as the classic nude without washing out.
  • Doesn't bleed
  • Doesn't transfer from the lips
  • Would be a perfect combination with a lot of heavy eye makeup looks
  • Long wearing
  • The vanilla fragrance
  • Despite being matte, its not very drying on the lips

Cons of MAC Pander Me Lipstick:

  • Availability, you see mac lipsticks vanish from the stores like crazy
  • Comes in the regular packaging (grumpy face)

Price: Rs.1450

VNA Rating: 4.5/5

Conclusion: Its a nice nude shade for our Indian skin and I totally recommend you guys to pick up as many shades as you can from the matte collection, they have an array of shades for different people and different moods, there is something for everyone.

Hi everyone. Sorry for the delay - remember when I said I had a sinus infection a couple of weeks ago? Well, for the past week my mom has had fever on and off, and she was finally diagnosed with bronchitis after seeing two doctors. Isn't fall in New York the greatest thing?
Anyway, if you saw my sneak peek post regarding MAC's The Matte Lip collection, then you know that I purchased three of the seven limited edition lipsticks that launched with it, amongst other products. Today, I'm here to share my first of three reviews related to this collection: my thoughts on the lipstick 'Pander Me.'

In my sneak peek post, I mentioned how 'Pander Me' wasn't actually my own pick when I placed my order for part of the collection two weeks ago. It appealed to me at first, and then it didn't, and then it did again and didn't again, et cetera. Even now I can say that if my mom hadn't picked this lipstick, I still wouldn't have had second thoughts about it based on continuously emerging reviews and swatches across the web. Yet here it is with me, and here I am with you to say what my thoughts about this color all amount to.
Let's get right to it, then.

On their site, MAC describes 'Pander Me' as a 'soft peachy mocha.' The description is what caught my initial attention back when I first heard about the collection. Soon pictures started popping up, though, and I started seeing a brown and an orange and, overall, a color I wasn't completely into. Now that I have this lipstick in my possession, I would describe it as a terracotta.That inarguably sums the color up. Terracotta. Period.

Truthfully speaking, I see this color and I think 'fall.' I would say it is the lipstick in my collection that best represents this earthy, depressing season. Okay - ignore the 'depressing' in there, as that doesn't sound appealing at all. This color is appealing. It's a beautifully burnt orange-brown that makes me think of pottery, crumbling leaves, and the softening warmth of summer. It's a straight-up terracotta that pulls either more brown or more orange, depending on your skin tone. Hence all the varying pictures that were scantly surfacing online over a month ago.
I personally wanted more of a warm brown, than a brown-toned orange, but I got something in between the two - perhaps leaning more towards brown than orange (yay). I want to say that the swatch above is the most color-accurate of all the pictures in this post, but it may be pulling a bit more brown than it appears on my lips (or my lips may be bringing out the orange in the color a bit more - who knows).

As for the above lip swatch, where this lipstick clearly pulls more orange, I would say the difference is partly due to the influence of the sun that I use as my (indirect) source of lighting. Either way, the above color is definitely a terracotta as opposed to an orange. I was relieved by this because I almost thought that 'Pander Me' might be a neutral orange, much like Revlon's limited edition 'Jungle Peach,' which I enjoy, but not enough to want a duplicate of. I didn't include comparisons of the two in this post because they are actually nothing alike, thankfully.
Anyway, I've gone on long enough regarding the damn color of this lipstick. As I said before, 'Pander Me' is limited edition and, as suggested by the collection's title, it has a matte finish. Of the three matte lipsticks I purchased from The Matte Lip, 'Pander Me'wears the most drying. It does apply smoothly, and feel for the most part comfortable on the lips, much like MAC's previous collection's mattes (here and here), but the color just looks drying on my lips much sooner than my other semi-creamy mattes from MAC. This may likely be due to the soft yet bright color, which makes lip lines and any 'cakey' pooling harder to hide.
As for the actual finish, 'Pander Me' is definitely a matte, even if it starts with the slightest sheen directly after application. And, as a matte, the color is rich and long-wearing.
With all that being said, although 'Pander Me' is a lovely warm, earthy color that applies smoothly and wears comfortably for a matte - and is

unique in my collection - it's just not my kind of color. I like it, and I will use it and enjoy the fact that it's very different from what I own, but I will always love and, inevitably, prefer colors with some form of pink/purple in them. Brown is actually my least favorite lip color**, and orange is ironically my second least favorite (I say ironically because my absolute favorite color is pink-coral, which is only perfect when it has a noticeable amount of orange in it). Earthy tones are also my least favorite colors in general although, again, I don't dislike them - I simply prefer jewel-tones and pastels.

if you enjoy the color and want the matte finish, since the formula is quite comfortable and noticeably nicer than other MAC mattes ('Candy Yum Yum'). Again: don't misunderstand me. This lipstick is a beautiful color. I mean, really - I only spoke about the color in around three chunks of text! Haha.
Would I repurchase it, though? No.
I hope you found this review helpful, and thanks for stopping by. 'Til next time! ('<>')>
