    Got orangy coral after 1/2 hr, wanted to like it looked nice in the tube, a warmer shade.

    This is a really good colour for the MLBB effect. In my case it's almost the same colour as my lips, but my lips are more garishly purple! So this is like my lips without all that purple that makes me look so frostbitten or something!

    I just adore this color! I always carry it in my purse, perfect for daily use when you dont want to have the over-done nude-lip.

    A lovely coral-pink, great for spring and summer. Finish is glossy but with staying power. Very comfortable feeling, no need to add a layer of balm (unless you want to add some SPF).
    EDIT: MAC Cut-a-caper is a great dupe for this if you can get a hold of it at a CCO. Another dupe would be Smashbox lipstick in Splendid.

    Received this in a swap. I wasn't sure about the color because it looked different in pretty much every swtach i found on google. I'm glad i took on a chance on this though, i love it! it's a pretty pinky/coral shade on my lips but not too over the top bright. it's listed as a frost, but i don't notice any frost to it on my lips...it looks more matte/creme on me.

    A while back I set out on a mission to find a lipstick that screamed your lips but better for this NW20. After many a failed attempt, I tried the MAC store. How hard must it be to find a pink that isn't an 80s Barbie mess or leans to far to the coral/red side? After a few misses I found this gem. Seeing as how I'm not blessed with very pigmented lips, this was perfection in a tube. A natural looking medium yet light looking pink that accented my lips without shouting out to the world I was wearing lipstick. It's now the perfect weapon in my arsenal when I'm going for the natural look.

    One of my favorite lipsticks in the whole wide world. As I have gotten older and my career has gotten more corporate, I have gotten away from the crazier MAC lipstick colors. Skew is one of those lipsticks that makes me look young and girlish, but still professional.
    As noted by other reviewers, this is a GREAT summer color. Also, great for red heads.

    This is a great color! It's neutral looking and the coral really warms up your face. It's a great every day color. I also like MAC lipsticks because they last a long time without being drying to your lips.
    I have an olive/gold skin tone but I think this color would be very flattering to many skintones. I highly reccommend this color, especially for summer.

    Skew is SOOOO gorgeous. I wanted a coralish pink color for spring, but I didn't want it to be too orange and voila! I found Skew. Skew is a medium toned pink with some coral tones to it. The opalescence is really unique and to me, makes the lipstick. If you are looking for something a little more coral, try NARS Niagara.

    MAC calls this a soft coral duochrome with pink opalescent shimmer. Upon first application, Skew appeared to be a pinky coral, more pink than coral. I did not see any opalescence, frost or shimmer and was perplexed that this was labeled a frost formula. But when I got into my office, which has lots of natural light, I was shocked to find an intense lavender-ish sheen on my pinky-coral lips! I would not wear this to work again, but this is a very unique and fun color for days off and nights out.

    i love this lipstick. it makes my teeth whiter, and i feel that it brightens my face. on me- nc 40-42- it comes up as an interesting corally bright pink. i had it on today with a few dabs of moonbathe l/g (LE, from Moonbathe collection, looks a lot like silly girl i hear) which comes out as clear to medium orangey pink tinted on me and it looked fabulous. i really love this color!

    Skew is such a strange (but good) color. I hate the texture and when it wears off I have a weird white ring on the inner part of my lips which only this lipstick causes, so no repurcase for me.

    Beautiful flattering colour, which can be dressed up or down. I had this at the MAC counter with a really strong smoky eye and it balanced out. The colour makes my teeth appear loads whiter. Definite repurchase

    Bought Skew together with Plink and Moonstone lip glass which comes in a nice black pouch at Changi Airport in July. Love how Skew flatters my skin colour. The best weekend colour so far.
    I tend to wear stronger colours with satin finish for work, X-Treme, Marrakesh, Twig, Spirit. Lighter colours with lustre or glaze finish for weekends, Skew, Plink, Syrup, Plumful, Lipblossom.
    Coral tends to work better on my skin than pinks. All in all, MAC lipsticks and lip glosses are the best I have used so far. Just love it's wide range of colours and finishes.
    Just bought Finery, Plum which comes in an antique-inspired, small clutch bag of woven cream/silver metallic fabric with a royal crown detail on ivory moulded plastic frame. Features three plum-toned lip colours: Ultra Madame, a muted pinky brown, and Culture Class Lipsticks, a deep plum with gold pearl, and Contessa Lip Gloss, a silver pink with silver sparkle. Can't wait to try them.
