This color is so perfect. I usually only wear nude lipsticks, and I mean every day, but this is the only pink color I'd wear. It's so pretty and I really think it compliments every skintone. I keep trying other pinks, but nothing compares to this. Such a fun color!

I love this lipstick!! It's definitely one of my favorites, love the color a pastel pink. I had to go back to the store and get a back up.

Edit:: While I love the color of this lipstick, I hate the texture. It has a milky texture on your mouth that makes your lips look chapped. It doesn't give you a full solid look no matter how much you apply.


So while I love the color, the texture of this lipstick is just awful.

i adore this colour in the tube, and on most people ive seen it on, sadly it doesnt look quite as awesome on me. id been searching for a proper barbie pink for ages, and this seemed to be perfect on paper (or online to get technical), the only way i can wear it (so far) is to dab it on very lightly, smudge it in with my fingers and then pop a clear gloss on the top, which for me defys the whole point of buying it, i wanted something i could just put on and go. i still love it though and am determined to find an easier way of being able to wear it!

This is a fantastic color, but it definitely does not work on everyone. Personally - I love it. I'm fair skinned with blonde hair and blue eyes, so dark pink lips tend to wash me out. Saint Germain is light enough of a pink that it doesn't make me look pale & it's just an added bonus that it's such a bright and fun color. It's a matte color, so if you want gloss - you'll need to apply something overtop - but I prefer matte lips. All mac lipsticks apply so smoothly and the smell is another favorite of mine! Doesn't smell like most lipsticks, I think it has almost a cookie dough type of scent. The wear is pretty good, but I do use it with a primer just in case. I would not reccomend this for people with darker skin since it may look a little TOO bright on your skintone, but if you're pale and struggle with finding a lipstick shade that is complimentary - try Saint Germain. continued >>

I love this! It is so bright and pink and neon and just amazing. I love the creamy formula but it can streak a bit and leave some lines where the lips meet. But with my pale skin and dark brown hair this just looks neon, but I love that. This is true barbie pink in a tube but it's not very wearable for those who don't wear a lot of bright make up. I wear St Germ with a fairly neutral shimmery eye as otherwise I fear looking like a 5 year old! I love it, but it is expensive, and the people at MAC where I live are very rude! I got this for £7.50 with a voucher but I would have paid full price as the formula is nice, if a little drying. Amazing. And pink...really really pink. x

Love thiiiisss!!
I was looking for a light pink lipstick after watching one of the Gossip Girl episodes with Jenny sporting a light pink lip (yes referring to GG lame i kno) and this is a perfect match!.
It's an Amplified lipstick so comes out very strong, definitely need to rub my finger over it lightly to make it more wearable but gorgeous colour.
Price was pretty pricey, bought it in Australia for $35. But love the payoff.

AMAZING DOLL PINK LIPSTICK!!!!


Hiiiiiighly pigmented but perfect when you want to make a statement. I put on a little Smashbox "Pout" Gloss and that seems to soften it a bit.

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!

I love this lipstick, but I have to tone it down. Using a more natural lipliner and a calmer pink gloss gives a slightly more natural, nude colour, which looks great. this does look fabulous on its own, but you have to be pretty confident. If your a bronzer fan, when you apply this lipstick you get a very bimbo-ish look about you, and its not a good one. I suggest calming the bronzer on days when you use this colour, but it works great with a very soft, light peachy pink blush. Packaging is great as usual.

I love this color in the tube. I can't decide if I love it or hate it on.... LOL, maybe i'm just too old for it. I'd say if I were in my teens-20s it would be cute but i'm nearly 42. I uploaded a pciture of me in it here on the review page and the color is pretty accurate. What I don't like about it is it's not really easy to apply, I have to apply clear OR SIMILAR COLORED GLOSS OVER IT TO GET EVEN COVERAGE.
