1 in a Million

MAC 1 in a Million Lipglass ($17.50 for 0.10 oz.) is a dark plum with subtle, warm undertones and violet sparkle. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that applied without streaking, but the color settled into my lip lines. The texture was light-medium weight feel with a moderately tacky texture. It wore well for five hours and was lightly hydrating.

Formula Overview

$17.50/0.10 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.

At Your Best You Are

MAC At Your Best You Are Lipglass ($17.50 for 0.10 oz.) is a slightly muted, medium-dark berry with subtle, cool undertones and a jelly-like finish with faint shimmer. It had semi-opaque color coverage in a single layer that applied fairly evenly, but it did sink into my lip lines. It had a moderately sticky consistency with a light-medium weight to it. This shade stayed on well for five hours and was lightly hydrating over time.

Brooklyn Born

MAC Brooklyn Born Lipglass ($17.50 for 0.10 oz.) is a golden beige with warm, yellow undertones and lots of pearl and shimmer. It had medium coverage (mostly from shimmer) that applied evenly and spread easily across my lips (this one was described as sheer, though). The gloss was noticeably tacky and plusher, but it wasn’t heavy. There was slight color that gathered in my lip lines, but it wasn’t noticeable from a normal viewing distance between the shimmer and glossy finish. It wore well for four and a half hours on me and was moisturizing while worn.

Li Li’s Motor City

MAC Li Li’s Motor City Lipglass ($17.50 for 0.10 oz.) is a muted, medium peachy-coral with warm undertones and barley-there gold pearl. It had good pigmentation that covered my lips evenly but there was slight product that sank into my lip lines within a few minutes. It had a tacky feel–typical of Lipglass–but wasn’t heavy or uncomfortable to wear and spread fairly easily across my lips. It lasted for four and a half hours on me and was hydrating.
