The M·A·C Icon

A Bold Lip

Step 1:


Apply primer first to condition the lips, whilst creating a matte base for the lipstick to stick to.


M·A·C Pro Tip: Apply the primer all over the lip, and over the lip edge to prevent bleeding. Allow the product to go tacky before you apply your other lip products.


Step 2:


Line your lips in your desired shape. It will glide perfectly over M·A·C Prep + Prime Lip.


M·A·C Pro Tip: Focus on lifting the outer corners of your lip for a fuller appearance.


Step 3:


Create the perfect bundle by matching your lip pencil to your Matte Lipstick. Swipe lipstick onto lips directly form the bullet for a high-impact pout.


Step 4:


Layer with Clear Lipglass for a luxurious, lacquered finish.
