MAC Cremesheen Glass Subtropic Review, Swatch, FOTD

Claims : Lip finish that fuses the creamy, sheen-filled nature of Cremesheen Lipstick with the shine of M.A.C Lipglass. Soft, comfortable, non-sticky. Applies with a doe-foot applicator. Use as a top layer to its namesake Lipstick or on its own.
Price : Rs 1,150

MAC Subtropic Cremesheen glass is a part of Semi Precious Collection. For some reason it is not listed in the official mailer. Don’t know why. Anyway!
Subtropic is a mid tone semi opaque warm coral color with very fine shimmers. It is actually a super close dupe of Fold and Tuck Lipglass that came with the Art Supplies Collection. I completley finished using that some time back and now this one is an awesome replacement.
Creemsheen glasses are not sticky, have a lovely vanilla fragrance and stays on for approx 2 hours on me.
Subtropic is a medium pigmented glass. The micro shimmers just give a nice sheen to the lips without feeling gritty. It goes on smooth on lips without settling the the fine lines. Also, creemsheen glasses are not thick in texture so they feel quite light on lips.
Subtropic is a fantastic shade for most Indian skin tones.Also, it’s once in a while that you get to find such a pretty shade of coral. It doesn’t wash out color form your face and it’s so easy to pull off. Except may be the staying power, the gloss is beautiful. The pigmentation is on the medium side so even those who have pigmented lips wouldn’t be disappointed with it.
And this is how it looks on me. 🙂 I wear MAC foundation in NC 35 shade.

very pretty shade Rati..but wil it look good on nc40 skintone?I tried this cosmo lipstick at MAC yesterday and I felt it was too pink for my colour..:(
preetha yeah corals are universally flattering colors and look good on loads of skin tones, do give this a try. 🙂
ohh ok then wil check it out Rati..one more query..which concealer would u recommend for oily skin?The MUA suggested select moisture cover for me.Is it good?
no it would slip preetha. try prolongwear.
ok then Iam going to exchange it tom..am sorry for askin too many questions..pro longwear or studio finish?..The MUA tried studio finish in NW35 and it looked great..but she said I dont need such a heavy concealer..everytime I go to MAC lookin for a concealer,they always suggest select moisture cover.This happened with my cousin too..y?
You both must be going to the same MAC and they must be knowing only one concealer O:)
very funny Sanjeev..but give me a solution na..can I exchange it?It is unused.
Depends… on how loud you can bawl… waise biwi might be able to tell better O:)
preetha give prolong wear a try.
they’d exchange if you have the receipt and if your product is unused.

Hi rati,
Loved your makeup, top, and neckpiece. The lipglass is looking fab on you. I have a question as to whether it is geo pink or subtropic. In the MAC Semi Precious Collection Lipstick, Lipglass Photos, Swatches post (https://makeupandbeauty.com/mac-semi-precious-collection-lipstick-lipglass-photos-swatches/), I think the shade is mentioned as Geo Pink. Please confirm as I want to buy it sooooooo much.
Hi Kumkum, geo pink has pinky undertone.s this one is also a part of the same collection bt somehow not mentioned in the official press release.
luv ur look, the shade is beautiful and so is the top, neck piece is stunning and above all the lady is gorgeous.
