MAC Loud and Clear Lipsticks: Yash, Baroque the Internet, Fleur D’Coral, Sugar Sweet Cameo and Sugar Dada

February 18th, 2020 by Karen 8 Comments

I keep vacillating over which of the five lipsticks in the new MAC Loud and Clear collection is the most “noteworthy.” One the one hand, there’s warm nude pink Baroque the Internet, and mid-toned coral-pink Sugar Sweet Cameo, both of which have more than enough oomph and color to compliment smokey eyes, wings and just about every eyeshadow look imaginable.

But then there’s also deep natural matte Yash, which is nowhere near as flashy, but you can throw it on with almost anything, so it’s also super flexible.

Four of the five lipsticks are in MAC’s classic Matte formula, so expect soaring pigment, a nearly flat finish, and longevity for days (OK, more like 4-5 hours).

The odd woman out is Fleur D’Coral, a sheer light peach MAC Lustre with the faintest hint of a sheen.

And oh: If you like your makeup early-’90s style (I’m guilty of this from time to time), you’ll be sweet on Sugar Dada, a warm brownish orange matte. I, along with half the population of my former high school, rocked a similar shade circa 1992.

If I had to pick a standout, it would be Yash for me, because it’s one of those nudes like MAC Velvet Teddy that you’ll end up wearing all the time without realizing it. Before you know it, you’ve finished the tube, and you know me — I like things that are practical and useful.

My second choice would be a tie between Baroque the Internet (which looks like it’s pretty much sold out online, so check your counter) and Sugar Sweet Cameo. Both, again, practical and useful…but with extra POW! 👊

Neutral lovers, don’t miss the Loud and Clear and Glow Play collections. They’re among the best work MAC’s done in a while.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

      Yash is the BEST! Seriously I wear it everywhere. I even wore it today to take Connor to the playground. 🙂

      YES, GIRL! Just add your black and white polka dot shirt with the sheer sleeves! (Which you bought from Contempo Casuals, of course.)

    Baroque is definitely my fave of the bunch. No surprises there. I think it’s because it’s been cold and windy (so dry, chapped lips) but the matte isn’t appealing to me at the moment. Just looking at it makes my lips feel dry. HAHA!

      Cold wind is the worst, because for some reason it gets deep into my bones, gah! Is it still snowy around your way?

    I’m kinda thankful that these are sold out most places. I feel like the two I’m most interested in (Fleur d’Coral and Baroque the Internet) I already have something similar in my collection. Actually many multiples of the two are probably in my collection. I think I need to declutter my makeup before I buy any more of it.

    Yash all the way! Can’t go wrong with a sophisticated, almost MLBB shade.

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
