Dark neutral brown lipliner. Wears really well both as a liner and as an all over lip color. I find that I use this color less as i age because it's too dark, but it's gorgeous nonetheless, and...

Cork Lip liner is a nice light tan color for my lips. It looks great with nude glosses, and it doesn't make my lipgloss turn a different color when I use this. It's just a bare nice, clean color....

Old school staple for me. I've had this one pencil for years. So many years, they've changed the packaging! Seems to muddy when I'm trying to achieve a neutral look. I don't think I will buy...

this is a great lip liner if you want to define your lips without adding too much to the color of the gloss or lipstick. i tried chestnut before which is darker and fine, but wanted something a...

A nice liner to go with my lipcolors sweetie and hug me. I also had chestnut from years ago and find it too harsh for my skin tone (NC45). I like this one better...it blends very well with my...

To me this has a very 90's look, when everyone wore brown lip colors despite how unflattering it was on some skin tones. I got this with a bunch of other products so I didn't choose the shade,...

This is a staple in my makeup bag. I alternate between this one and Revlon's Espresso. I use this with almost all of my lippies. I found Chestnut too dark for my lips. I am c8 or MUFE duo mate 214.

Great dark nutmeg color. Very pretty, but it will definitely go better with warm browns. Perfect companion to MAC Photo or Chelsea.

This golden brown liner just doesn't work for me - I look dead wearing it. For my brown and nude lip colors, Spice just works better - there's a peachiness to Spice that gives my lips life.

My go-to lip liner. I wear it with everything. I have purchased multiple times. I had tried Chestnut, but it was too dark for me. For reference I am M GGG, NC45.

I use this color with everything and it just makes whatever I put on look better. I of course put it on with brown lipstick, but mostly love it with my BE cranberry suede lipstick. Or with a nude...

Too dark on me. Thought it would appear chocolatey but I just look dead using it. Use it sometimes to line my brows. :)

GGG NC45 My HG liner. I always reach for this over MAC chesnut liner because it's lighter. It applies smoothly and is long lasting. Looks great with any color.

Love this color, hate its texture. Some of MAC's liners are dry and others are not. This one goes on bone dry and even clumps on my lips! I have to put lip balm on before I use it every time;...

Finally freedom from Chesnut! Like a lot of women of color, chesnut was MAC l/l staple but cork blended better and I'm able to wear pinks and peaches w/o looking so frosty!

This is the worst color I ever purchased from MAC, it does nothing for me and I don't know what I was thinking when I purchased it. It takes up space in my make-up case. Not good on fair NW20...

Love love love this liner! I have been a devotee of Chestnut for years, and decided to try Cork based on the reviews here. I usually wear bronze and brown shades of lipgloss, and while Chestnut...
