Just what is a “Cremesheen” lippie?
A Cremesheen lippie is a Mac lipstick that has it’s own special finish and feel.
You can get an idea of what this lipstick is about when we break up the word “creme sheen”.
Clearly the lipstick is creamy and it has a sheen.
Now it’s not as creamy as say Mac’s Amplified.
And it isn’t as pigmented either.
It does go on smooth and there is a softness to them.
Most of the popular nude shades fall into the Cremesheen finish.
Because of this finish, the wear isn’t going to be particularly long.
So you will need to reapply. The good thing is this finish does not slide around.
Some Cremesheens colors have a “frost” to them.
However it’s subtle and gives more dimensionality and fullness to the finished lip look on the mouth.
If that’s what you’re looking for in a lipstick, then by all means put it on your list.
