This lipstick is perfect!! I have light to med color with yellow undertones and this is a great "nude" lip for me. It is a pinky peach color so it works with anything. This glossy lipstick feels good on my lips and last just as long as a regular lipstick. Love it!!

I love this lipstick! One of the best MAC lipsticks I've ever bought. I am an NC42/44 (in the summer) and this flatter my skintone. Its pigmented and kinda peachy pink which looks natural. I like the finish of it, its has a sheen to it so I don't have to wear lipgloss over it. The texture of this lipstick is quite soft so it can melt (make sure you put it somewhere cool not near sunlight or radiators). As the texture is quite soft, it runs out quite quickly. It is pricey but its worth the money. I don't think i would be able to find a drugstore product that is as good as this lipstick! I love, love, love it and I will be repurchasing, and will try other shades in this finish. I highly recommend it!

This was my first lipstick from MAC, I wanted a nice everyday colour that accentuated the natural colour of my lips. Sheen supreme lipsticks are very moisturizing, pigmented, and long lasting (considering how moist they are). The colour of this lipstick is a kind of pinky brown colour, a good nude for medium skinned women who think colours like angel (very light pinkish nudes) wash them out. I usually just swipe this on my lips for a nice toned down look or if I want it a little bit darker and fancier I use NYX chesnut lipliner and put this over it. A word of caution, exfoliate and moisturize your lips because this can settle into lines but it's not a huge deal. Definitely my favourite everyday lipstick and I WILL buy this again and recommend this to anyone who isn't into pinkier nudes and more into a brownish nude.

When I first saw this ; in my mothers makeup bag; I questioned myself. It seemed like a mature women's lipstick. But, I tried it on and absolutely adored it. It's the perfect pink- beige color on my skin tone, and a great everyday lip color. This lip color even looks great on fair skin( preferably pink undertone skin) . Only thing is, the creamy consistency causes it to fade a bit, but that's okay. I'm already on my second one, and will keep repurchasing .

I love this lipstick! It's such a nice and natural colour and the lipstick is really creamy and goes on easily while moisturising my lips. Usually I avoid lipsticks because I find that they are drying out my lips but this one doesn't.
It's not as pigmented as a normal lipstick so in my opinion it's the middle-ground between a lipstick and a tinted lip balm.


The only downside is that it doesn't have great staying power but most lipsticks wear off quickly anyway.


I would compare this Lipstick to Revlon's Colorburst Lipbutter #001 (Pink Truffle) although the Mac Bare Again is slightly more pinkish/peachy.

It's a great lipstick and I just love this colour!

This tube is great, the smell is great and the color is great. I have not worn a lip stick in a long time as I tend to stick with glosses but this is beautiful. I love it and would buy again when this is out!

While shopping for a new MAC lipstick, I came across the Sheen Supreme collection. I really like the sleek cylindrical packaging of this lipstick and I love the color even more. It is a dark brown-pink that is very flattering on all skin tones. Most nudes and pinks from MAC do not look good on my NC 30 complexion as they are either too blue-toned or too light and make me look like a corpse. This color is absolutely perfect. It is like a "your lips but better" color and the consistency is very creamy and silky. It leaves a sheen on your lips as if you wore a gloss. It has the typical MAC lipstick scent- a light vanilla.

Love this lipstick!
So creamy and easy to apply.
Smell is great! :)
It's moisturizing and stays on my lips for about 4 hours then I have to re-apply just one wipe across the top and bottom lip :)
It's a pink peachy nude, colour goes with everything.
It's great for my complexion all year round. If you have olive/tan skin and light brown-black hair it's looks great and doesn't make you looked washed out at all!
If you buy it and it is a bit too dark for you liking you can always lighten it up with a light pink or peach gloss.
Great lipstick I'll be buying it forever!

NOT A NUDE AT ALL! This is a very nice odor but...NUDE IT IS NOT!
The name gives the impression that it's going to be a bare color but it's quite dark.
Beautiful finish and feels amazing on lips but...I like nudes.

This is a great lipstick. It makes my lips look even and pretty but super natural. My favorite everyday lipstick. Looks awesome. Feels comfortable on the lips. Perfect paired with a smokey eye. Go check this out. For reference I am nc15.

If you are in search of a everyday wearable neutral color this is the right lipstick for you.

Color
I have a pigmented lips, it comes of pinky - pale nude. I can get away with any eye make up with this lip color. I really love it!

Coverage
Medium and very buildable

Finish
It easily glides in your lips like butter. Its very creamy but not sticky.

Dupe
The closest dupe I can think is Maybelline nude blush, sadly its discontinued.

Staying power
Given this has a creamy texture this transfers easily and fades fast. Youll have to re-apply 1-2hrs.

I love the smell of this lipstick, it buttery sweet. Its very hydrating. Love it! Highly recommend.

This was my very first mac product. I love it. It is a nice caramely nude that I think is soft and modern at the same time. It's so neutral for any other type of makeup you want to use. It has a soft buttery consistency that is relatively long lasting. It was very hard to find anything close to this color, it is so warm and not orangy, or too light.

This is the perfect colour for me. My lips are pigmented, kind of mauvey pink. This peachy-pink nude looks great and is so easy to wear. Very moisturizing and the scent is nice. Yay all the way.

I adore this lipstick! I bought it when I was trying to find a lipstick that was comparable in color to my Nars Chihuahua lipgloss. This was a great alternative and it not only looks great but feels great on the lips.

This doesn't have the best staying power of all MAC lipsticks, but the color is worth the hassle of having to reapply a few extra times. Besides, if you are like me you sorta secretly find it fun to keep putting your lipstick on. Something about lipstick is just romantic to me, so putting it on again and again is usually more of a treat than a pain.....usually. Of course the product seems to disappear faster as a result.

I am almost out of this product, but I will be repurchasing it soon. It is a great color that has been versatile the whole year round. It is a great product from a great company. I love MAC!

I was so disappointed when MAC discontinued the Slimshines, but I'm very happy with the Sheen Supremes as a replacement. For me, Bare Again Sheen Supreme is definitely comparable to Bare Slimshine. Bare Again is the perfect pinky-nude for my NC20 complexion. It's not too pale that I look like a zombie and not too beigey-nude that makes me look like I have concealer lips. It's just perfect! This is a nude that's very wearable for everyday, and with a smoky eye for evening. The formula is creamy, glossy, and just a bit sheer (reminds me of a glossier Lustre formula, which is my favorite of the MAC lipstick formulas). I also love how the packaging snaps very tightly closed (no worries that it's going to open in my bag). I would repurchase Bare Again in a heartbeat.

When looking for a nude lipstick shade, the MUA picked this out for me, trying it on it glided on smoothly, the color was very close to my lip colour, and it had a nice glossy finish. The finish was similar to Anna Sui glossy lipsticks. I use this everyday, and lasts a few good hours, I only reapply after eating. I have no problem with the packaging. It's a nice glossy black tube. I guess thats a reminder to whats inside. I have read a couple of reviews saying the lid is hard to take off. Well I would rather have a lipstick that seals properly rather than have one that falls apart in my bag. It's not nice seeing an opened Anna Sui lipstick in your bag and the product been contaminated by the dust and dirt particles. Overall a great base shade for NC20 skin, I feel I'm going to go through this lipstick within a couple of months cos it is so glossy its like lip balm. I can't wait try other shades though I would probably buy this color again.

Absolutely the most pigmented glossy lipstick, comparable to Esprique. Anna Sui's glossy lipsticks are as faint as balms. Dior lipsticks come on a little sheer. If I had any gripe about the MAC sheen supreme lipsticks, it's the small range of colours. The packaging is not fantastic either, just a slim glossy black tube. The lipstick gets used up at a manic rate because of how glossy it is. Love the chocolatey scent, different from the other ranges of MAC lipsticks. Doesn't settle into creases, but on dry days I still use a balm underneath.

This is a really nice shade with an awkward formula. Am I alone here? It's a nude with a slight warm pink cast which really helps avoid the attractive "death lips" look. It's good and creamy. However, application is a bit strange for me; it goes on easily enough but seems to just sit on top of my lips. So I rub it in to blend and avoid that layer of lipstick look. Then, after all that, it's gone within 15 minutes. Bizarre. If anyone can recommend a similar shade with a better formula, that would be awesome. The hunt for nude lipstick is so annoying. Found my perfect red immediately!

This is a GREAT color for everyday use! When you're at a loss for what to wear on your lips, this is the one to go to! It goes with everything from dramatic to naural looks. You don't even need a lipliner with this. This lives in my carry on makeup bag, it doesn't get lost in my vanity like most of my other lipsticks do. It's creamy, shiny and moisturizing. And it seems like there's more in the tube than regular MAC lipsticks (I could be wrong bc the weight isn't printed on the tube, it's on the boxes and I threw mine away), but for the same price. It's a wearable pinkish nude. Heard it was a dupe for Bare Slimshine. Perfection. For referance I'm about an NC25-30 skintone.
