MAC Oh Goodie & Can You Tell Lustreglass Lipsticks Reviews & Swatches

MAC Oh Goodie Lustreglass Sheer-Shine Lipstick ($22.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a light-medium pink-leaning coral with moderate, warm undertones and a cream finish. The color payoff was mostly opaque and buildable, though it was supposed to be sheer. It had a lightweight consistency that was thin (without being clingy) and emollient enough to glide on, though it did not apply as evenly as ideal. It wore well for four hours, but it was marketed to last for eight hours (which would have been quite the feat for this type of formula).

Formula Overview

$22.00/0.1 oz. – $220.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have “sheer, buildable colour” that is moisturizing, while also being long-wearing with “six hours” of shine and “eight hours” of color.

First and foremost, these have an unexpectedly long long-wearing claim. Eight hours of wear is a feat for any lipstick, let alone one that is sheerer, more luminous, and hydrating. It likely comes as no shock that they did not wear close to eight hours. The wear ranged from three to four hours, which was in line with other, more luminous formulas of similar coverage-level and was a little longer than the average Lustre lipstick in the past (though more consistent with recently released Lustres).

The updated take on the Lustre finish is more emollient, creamier, and has more consistent coverage. It is still a lighter-weight, thinner consistency relative to MAC’s other lipsticks and most other lipstick formulas on the market. The colors that were brought back in the new formula were fairly consistent with the prior versions.

Most of the shades applied evenly, didn’t seem to catch or emphasize texture imperfections on my lips, and weren’t prone to settling into my lip lines. That being said, the current range is heavier on mid-tones, and it is often very light shades that can be the culprits of both.

The coverage ranged from semi-sheer to medium, and most shades were buildable to semi-opaque coverage, though they tended to wear down to more medium coverage within an hour or so of wear. I found that once some of the shine wore down, e.g. if one drank from a glass of water or blotted lightly, the color that remained was more like the initial layer of product.

They were vanilla-scented but had no discernible taste.

MAC Can You Tell Lustreglass Sheer-Shine Lipstick ($22.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a medium coral with warmer undertones and a natural sheen. It had medium, buildable pigmentation, which was a little more in line with the sheer, buildable coverage it was marketed to have. The lipstick was lightweight, emollient but thin, and comfortable to apply and to wear.

I was impressed by how it didn’t cling to texture as much as I would have expected, though you’ll want to exfoliate prior for the best application. While the product did not last anywhere close to the eight hours marketed, it did wear for three and a half hours and felt lightly hydrating over time.
