Setup, Compatibility & Care
Application / Setup Instructions
- Prepare Lips: For the smoothest application and best wear, gently exfoliate your lips if needed and apply a thin layer of lip balm. Blot off any excess balm before applying lipstick.
- Outline (Optional): For precise application and to prevent feathering, you can outline your lips with a brown lip pencil that matches or complements the 'Whirl' shade. This also helps prolong wear.
- Apply Lipstick: Glide the MAC Macximal Lipstick directly from the bullet onto your lips, starting from the center and moving outwards. For more control, use a lip brush.
- Build Color: Apply additional layers to achieve your desired color intensity. The formula is buildable for rich payoff.
- Blot (Optional): For a softer look or to set the color, gently blot your lips with a tissue after the first application.
Compatibility
This lipstick pairs perfectly with MAC Lip Pencils in brown or neutral tones to enhance definition and longevity. It can also be worn alone for a quick, impactful look. Its versatile shade 'Whirl' complements a wide range of makeup looks and skin tones.
Care & Maintenance
- Storage: Store your lipstick in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain its texture and integrity.
- Hygiene: To prevent contamination, avoid sharing your lipstick. If you notice any change in scent or texture, it may be time to replace it.
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the outside of the lipstick bullet with a clean tissue if needed. Do not use water or harsh cleaners on the product itself.
