Will you be claiming the VAT back?

As I always say, makeup is made to be experimented, so don’t forget to have fun, and no being afraid of trying out new things! That means you can’t go without a lip primer, like the Prep & Prime underneath, without which you can kiss your lips goodbye. Today, we’ll talk about the shades for the best MAC lip liner for dark skin and brown skin – shades that medium skin tones can use as well as many Asian and fair skin tones too! If you have rather fair skin, I would probably apply the Chestnut lip liner all over your lips and then coat with the Spice Lipglass. All that’s left to do, as I always say, is to have fun and experiment – that’s what makeup is for, after all!

In the end, you know your skin tone better than I, who have never seen you, and most importantly, you know what you like in makeup. And if you’d like to discover even more amazing MAC Cosmetics products, here are a few guides you might really enjoy: See if you’re down to try new mixes with some brighter shades like the Beet lip liner and the Cherry lip liner, or if you’d just like to find a new MAC lip liner shade to wear on a daily basis like Vino, Nightmoth, or Chestnut!

Later on, I’ll write many more guides about other shades of the best MAC brown lip liner names, like Stripdown, Chestnut, Chicory, and Mahogany, which I all count amongst some of my favorite light, reddish, and dark brown lip pencils. This richly textured, long lasting lip liner in a sleek pencil form, outlines, defines and enhances the natural shape of lips. Its unique texture is firm enough to draw a precise thin line, yet soft enough to blend and wear alone for a matte finish. The creamy formula glides on smoothly and comfortably, and is an indispensable artistry tool to prolong the wear of your favorite lip products. It keeps lip color in place to prevent bleeding, feathering and collecting in corners of lips throughout the day. On the eyes, you can go really nude with some light yellow eyeshadow, or if you’re feeling playful, a mix of mauve with the Chestnut lip liner on the lips will allow you to play with more rainbow eyeshadows! The lip pencil is an essential makeup product to enhance your lips and give radiance to the entire face. It allows you to play with your lips’ size, shape, and color, highlighting them naturally or making them more voluptuous according to your desires. To be effective, a lip pencil must be well-maintained. Therefore, a pencil sharpener is always important in your makeup bag. That way, you’ll always have a sharpened pencil ready for use. Drawing on the traditions of fine artists and illustrators Laura Mercier, a painter herself, designed this liner to deliver the ultimate control when making fine lines and filling in the lips with color.

Today, we’re going to be looking at all the best MAC brown lip liner shades for brown skin, medium and dark skin, Indian skin, Asian skin, olive, and fair skin tones.

Hopefully, this guide will have sparked up something interesting in you, like the will to push makeup boundaries further! You wouldn’t think, but I was actually as smitten with the Spice Lipglass as I was with the Fenty Beauty Fenty Glow Gloss Bomb – that’s how good it is. I worked as a makeup artist for MAC Cosmetics for quite some time, between their store in Paris on the Champs-Elysees and one of their makeup stores in London, in the heart of Covent Garden. I’ve talked a lot about the best MAC lip liners for Indian skin, fair skin, and other skin tones here, but I feel like it’s time I actually talked about colors: so today, we’re going to focus on all the best MAC brown lip liner shades. I remember distinctly wearing the Spice lip liner and Lipglass combo for days in a row when I used to work at MAC Cosmetics, simply because it is just so beautiful.

If you have medium to dark skin, I’d probably apply Chestnut around the edges of your lips, blend out, and then apply the Spice Lipglass. If you’ve ever wondered how to wear brown lip liner, it doesn’t really matter whether you know about the best MAC brown lip liner or not: you need to know how to use it first.

With that, wear some gold eyeshadow, or maybe even some bright blue eyeliner– that would provide great contrast!
