MAC Twig vs MAC Cosmo Lipstick Photos, Swatches

twig vs cosmo 01 MAC Twig vs MAC Cosmo Lipstick Photos, Swatches

 

MAC Twig lipstick and MAC Cosmo lipstick are sisters but not twins. I was quite confused myself when I saw Twig for the first time but on swatching and trying out both the shades, I’d could figure out the difference.

 

Twig is a rose brown color , which is more on the brown side. It is a satin finish, super pigmented and can be slightly drying after a few hours;. Read full review HERE.

 

Cosmo is also a rose brown color but more pink than brown. It is a creemseen lipstick, is quite pigmented but id not drying. Read full review HERE.

 

Twigs is a great shade fo those with medium to dusky skin tones. People who feel that Cosmo washes them out, they should definitely try Twig.

Good thing I saw this comparison! I actually have Cosmo now and was thinking of buying Twig next because I wanted to try a Satin finish lipstick. But after seeing how similar they are, I think I’ll just find another Satin shade that’s a little more different.
