I'm very fair with cool toned skin and find a lot of lipsticks have warm tones that wash me out. Captive is great for cooler tones and can be used as a daytime lipstick without looking too dark and...

Mid-tone plum. A lot of the photos online look quite pink (e.g. Temptalia) but on me this is a lot more purpley, which is exactly what I wanted! I love this shade! Fun but not too unconventional,...

I completely mistook this for Craving btw. It's better than Craving. I would have never picked this up on my own (the shade *seems* similar to many lipsticks I already own, including MAC Amorous,...

Oh lord. Magic in a tube for me! This looks so great on me; I've worn it lightly through the day and have also pulled off this shade at night by applying a little more. I'm (recently discovered)...

Love love looove it! I'm usually not comfortable with lipsticks but this one is perfect for day and night and it's buildable if you want to go for a bolder look.

If you tend to pull purple on your lipsticks dont buy this. It looked straight purple in my nc10-15 skin and im not a fan of the formula either. Its a little drying on my lips

Love this lipstick, something I can always reach for day and night. I first thought this lipstick would be very similar to Twig, but it really isnt. It is dark and is more on the dark pink / hint...

This is the first MAC lipstick I purchased and I have to say that I love it. I have noticed that it looks so different on different people-more so than any other lipstick I've ever used, which may...

NW20 here, deep soft winter, almost black hair, brown eyes. There seems to be a cluster of very popular neutral shades from MAC. I kept hearing about Plumful, Craving, and Captive. I wish I...

While it may works on many other people, this particular MAC lipstick just don't work for me. The Satin formula is extremely drying on my dry lips and it's really uncomfortable to wear even after...

Captive is everything I wanted Craving to be. FYI the shades look totally different on me. Captive is darker, more alluring. I'm around NW35 so it's not exactly "vampy" on me but it's probably the...

This must be my all time favourite lipstick from Mac. Such a beautiful plummish colour. I love this for a semi-vamp look. It stays on for a couple of hours. My only problem is I couldn't find a lip...

I don't know why it's taken me this long to "discover" Captive as it's just the sort of lipstick colour that I gravitate toward. It's a very pretty, flattering shade of pinky burgundy red that...
