I have never used any lip liner from MAC and this is my first liner from this brand. Most of the lipsticks overflowing in my stash are either nudes/browns/beige or coral neutrals. Therefore, I wanted a neutral/nude liner to match up with all my lipsticks. MAC Naked Liner Lip Pencil wasn't easily available in India. I actually had to wait for a long time after which I placed an online order. Finally, I got my hands on it. Read on to know my take on this product.


About MAC Naked Liner Lip Pencil:

MAC lip liner in Naked is from the Mac too fabulous collection.

My Experience With MAC Naked Liner Lip Pencil:

Packaging: This beautiful pencil is encased in a sleek matte wooden fold with a black cap. It is not retractable. The packaging is similar to all the other MAC lip liners.
Shade: The shade is flesh toned beige which is very similar to a concealer. This particular shade cannot be worn bare on Indian skin tones as it would look like a concealer. Therefore, you can either use this as a base or to conceal the lips to achieve a fuller lip.



Texture: This lip pencil glides over my lips without a bit of tugging or pulling and the texture is absolutely creamy. It is very comfortable to wear I would say.
Pigmentation: It is highly pigmented and that is the best quality of this pencil. But if any pressure is applied while application, it can turn out to be a mess. Gliding it too much over lips will make it uneven as the liner is a bit unforgiving.


Staying Power: I never wore this liner on its own but when this liner is used as a concealer or as a base lip color, it helps to stay the lipstick to last for 6-7 hours with little snacks and drinks in between.
Summing up the pros and cons.

Pros Of MAC Naked Liner Lip Pencil:
  • Non-drying formula.
  • The texture is creamy; hence it can be applied over the lips without any tugging or pulling.
  • Great color payoff. Single swipe is enough to make the color come out.
  • Beautiful pigmentation as it completely conceals uneven lips or any dark patches on lips.
  • Helps the lipstick to stay for a long duration.
  • Reasonable pricing as it is worth every penny spent on this.

Cons Of MAC Naked Liner Lip Pencil:
  • This isn't a conventional color and not everyone can pull off this shade. It best suits light toned complexion.
  • Indian skin tones will find it difficult to use.
  • The pigmentation is a bit unforgiving.

Diva Likes Rating:

3/5

Final Note:

Light skin toned people can pull off this shade better. This can be utilized as a base color or to conceal uneven lips for people with dark skin tones. I don't think I need to buy this pencil again as it would last long. Moreover, I hardly use it.
