Just what I was looking for!
'Impressive' is a really easy-to-wear light-weight lipstick. It's a little darker than my natural lip-colour, which for me gives an ideal 'my lips but better' look. It feels really silky and glides on effortlessly.

The only negative for me is that this doesn't stay on very long before I need to reapply, but it's not a deal-breaker. Luckily, for me it fades really evenly so it doesn't end up looking patchy.

I would definitely repurchase.

Have this and Ultra Darling, which is similar but slightly more pink. Both lovely wearable shades that enhance your look without being obvious and garish, especially when a little older. The texture is lovely, feels nicer than a balm, just the right amount of shine, Very impressed. I usually struggle with lipsticks, but bought these after looking at reviews on here, so thanks girls!

Love this lipstick. Perfect color and consistency to wear everyday rather than wearing a tinted balm. It made my lips feel moisturized and look polished. I will always keep this one in my bag as a quick fix of color when I'm keeping it low key.

This is my HG lipstick. The shade is absolutely perfect for me. It's a rosy brown color. I am NC45, and I have struggled to find a decent "nude" lipstick for my skin tone. My lips are large and extremely dry, so finding lipsticks that aren't too bold and won't show every flaw on my lips is very difficult. However, this lipstick is creamy, has decent lasting power, and makes my lips look so nice and juicy. It looks great with any eye look and with any blush. I can apply it in the dark. I will repurchase this as long as it's available.

This is by far the most perfect lip color for me. It is exactly what I have been searching for, for years. I love Brave and it's the only lipstick that looks good on me, but I really wanted something a little richer in color, without being too dark - and this was it. I find Creme in your Coffee slightly more berry, Twig is a little more rose, and this is more neutral. I listed this as something I would be buy again, but unfortunately, this has shea butter, and since I'm latex sensitive - I'm allergic to shea, so I had to return it (didn't think to check before I bought it, I was so excited about the color). I'm so bummed, because it really is the perfect shade. These lipsticks are really soft and to me, they are somewhat like an extremely thick lip gloss, so the color does fade pretty quickly, but it doesn't leave a strange shade on your lips. I think if you're looking for a neutral pink/brown shade that isn't too dark, too light, too orange, or too blue, this is the one to try.

I looove the colour of this lipstick! It's almost the same colour as my lips except a bit darker. Great for natural redder looking lips. Creamy too.Also love the subtle vanilla scent like the rest of MAC's lipsticks

I love these lipsticks, right on target for this years glossy lips and lids combination. The SA said this lipstick is very soft and not to twist it out further than the case or it will break. It is gorgeous, glossy like a lip gloss without the stick feel and more pigmented. This is the HG for me.

I went to the MAC counter to take a quick peek at the Sheen Supreme lipsticks that were supposed to come out today but they weren't there, but I did end up buying this shade. It's described as a "gilded plum with pearl" and the color looks EXACTLY like my natural lips which are sort of a dark warm mauve. Now, in the summer, my skin tone is NC30. (It is usually NC25.) Soft pinks which are MLBB for some girls actually are a dramatic look for me (such as MAC Angel.) Previously, I had only tried Cremesheen lipsticks from MAC which were really drying and required smooth lips to be worn. This formula is gorgeous! It is smooth and creamy and surprisingly, gives amazing coverage. (I do enjoy sheer lip products because they are easier to pull off and reapply outside, though.) I will probably reach for this often because it doesn't clash with a lot of things since it is a my lips but better type of shade for me, and it's so easy to wear and feels so nice. The only negative (although it's not really a negative) is that the lipstick is very soft and you seem to use more per swipe than drier lipsticks, so you'll go through it quicker. This lipstick is Impressive!

I am in love with this product! I am into berry colored glosses and sticks but decided to try this not-so-nude color. Every time I wear this, I get compliments on how nice the shade is on me. It is a very good day time shade but could also be worn at night with a slightly smoky eye. The consistency is great. It moisturizes your lips like a lip balm but gives you enough color that a gloss can't. I will definitely hoard!

This is almost an exact dupe for Benefit's Good to Go, the shade that everyone went gonzo over after it was used on the girl in Twilight. Which by the way I already own. SO did I buy this one anyway? Yep. Why? Texture texture TEXTURE. Not nearly as mushy as Benefit, lasts 2x as long and more moisturizing. Yea!

I am a Slimshine lover so this new line was way overdue in my opinion, but I am not disappointed at all. I love the texture which to me is a little less slippery than Slimshines and definitely thicker. Its not too shiny. Lasts for a few hours and leaves my lips looking full and supple. The colors are sheer but build-able. The packaging is nice. Nothing amazing. My cap seems to stick a little which is better than being loose. As many people have mentioned it is a good "my lips but better" type color if you have rosey lips naturally. I love this type of color because nudes tend to look bizarre on me. I have big pink lips... I'm done trying to fight it. I can see myself buying more if/as more colors are released. I'm going to have a lot of neglected lip gloss...

This for me is my lip colour but better, i have very pigmented rosey lips.
And this is a rosy - brown neutral pink.
I really love this, its glossy with out having to use a gloss and the packaging is super sleek.

Would repurchase and also recommend.

Holy smokes I love these l/s. These are ultra smooth and moisturizing and feels just like a lip balm. I love the texture of these l/s. I bought 3 colours thus far:
1. Impressive (which I wear with minimal eye makeup (only liner and mascara)) (It pulls a deeper brown/pink/plum on me).
2. Ultra Darling (also wear with minimal eye makeup) (this is a corally pink shade),
3. Bare Again (which I wear with any makeup - cool or warm) (this one is a lovely nude pink which gives me a MLBB look).
I am loving all of them. Will definitely repurchase.

This doesnt look at all like Bobbi Brown rose brown to me. BB is more reddish sienna brown while this more pink brown with plum on me. My new HG changes color while Im wearing it, to more pink the longer I wear it very nude neutral. Will be getting more before its d/c like slimshines.

On my PPP skin, this is a near dupe in color, formula and tube (with the cap off) for BB's Creamy Lipcolor shade in Rose Brown. BB is a tad darker. Basically, it's a nice, neutral pinky-brown shade that isn't too dark, isn't too light, isn't too sheer and never looks too bright on me. I wear Impressive with a bunch of different lipliners and like the look with each - Chanel's Nude; LM Plumberry; EL Fig; MAC Whirl. I think this is a nice everyday lipstick.

This lipstick is nice, but too boring for my taste. It's very similar to Maybelline's Caramel Kiss lipstick, for anyone who is looking for a cheap dupe.

I tried this and was very unhappy. I have been wearing lipstick for most of my life - I love it!! I have tried everything on the market and everything new that comes out however I keep going back to the best product on the market which is Chanel. They have three types: a thicker creamier lipstick (which is what I use), a more transparent line and the lipgloss type. The one I use keeps your lips soft and moisturized, is highly pigmented and stays on your lips the longest of anything else on the market.
