Amplified Lipstick - Dark Side

Dark Side is a vampy berry color in a shiny, moisturizing finish. I love the color but for some reason the texture really catches onto and accentuates dry spots on my lips in a way that only the driest of mattes have ever done. I definitely didn't expect that from such a hydrating lipstick! I think the Amplified texture just doesn't agree with me, which is a shame. The color is …Read more

Very saturated cool, deep purple berry. Wears long and is gorgeous! Can layer to make alternately lighter or darker in value.

My favorite shade of MAC lipsticks!
I've never been into nude, corals, purples, etc but dark red/burgundy is my go-to color. I also own Sin (Matte), which is very close to Dark Side (Amplified). I prefer the finish that Dark Side offers compared to Sin, because it gives off healthy shine without being too shiny. The application is smooth and it doesn't smear easily. It does …Read more

This is my #1 favourite lipstick! The texture is creamy and moisturizing and it stays for hours, although I do have to reapply after eating. I adore the colour and I think it goes really well with my fair, yellow-toned skin. Also, it smells AMAZING. I LOVE IT SO MUCH

I love the colour of this - a perfect dark burgundy that really suits my pale, slightly yellow-toned skin and dark brown hair/eyes. Unfortunately the finish isn't great - it doesn't last as long as other Mac Amplified lipsticks and dries out my lips, making the colour look flaky and uneven, even though my lips aren't particularly dry. I find the similar colours Diva and Media look …Read more

I LOVE THIS SHADE AND FINISH! I'm an Asian with fair skin with yellow undertones and this lipstick colour is so flattering on me! It is also hydrating and does not feather out even without the use of a lipliner. It is not smudgeproof though, so it is abit of a hassle when I am eating or drinking. But other than that, perfect colour and it stays on for a long time if your lips dont come into …Read more

Normally I go for pink but decided to give this a shot and I absolutely love it. I like mixing it with other colours. But it's way better alone.

Very dark, very nice vampy Burgundy! I used it today with my semi goth make up. My daughter dressed as a vampire, so I dressed as a modern vampire mom. This color got a lot of attention. It's definitely a fall/winter color. Very pretty.

Finally! This is what I wanted from MAC Rebel and Revlon Black Cherry, with the crucial difference being Dark Side's Amplified Creme formula that makes it much more comfortable to wear. Rebel dried my lips terribly (no idea why; other MAC Satin lipsticks work fine) and I had to get rid of it, much as I loved the color. Revlon Black Cherry was somehow both extremely drying *and* too slippy …Read more

Omg! I'm in love with this colour. I saw this on one of the MUA at the counter and it looked stunning on her. I tried it in the store and it came out as a lovely, pigmented burgundy/maroon colour. It's so creamy and doesn't bleed. Looks great on my nc40-42 skin tone! A perfect colour that you can pair with a subtle smokey eyes or on a night out.

I recommend everyone to …Read more
