Wearing MAC Cremesheen Lipstick in Coral Bliss
MAC went east — faaar east — for the 15 modern pinks, nudes and corals in their new Cremesheen + Pearl collection of Cremesheen Glasses and Lipsticks with a light-reflecting finish.
Each of the eight new Cremesheen Lipsticks ($15 each) and seven Cremesheen Glasses ($19.50 each) in the Asian-inspired collection contain crushed pearl for shiny, glossy lips with a luminous glow. They arrive on North American shores August 9 (and coming to international locales this September), but if you can’t/don’t want to wait that long, they’re actually available now online.
Looking for the right light-reflecting lips to go with your favorite bold eye look? MAC’s got ya covered. 🙂
Here’s a quick look at six of the new shades. I can’t wait to wear some of these with smokey eyes!
Cremesheen Lipsticks in Coral Bliss, Pure Zen and Shanghai Spice
Cremesheen Glass in Double Happiness, Rising Sun and Pagoda
I LOVE the product names and the overall vibe. It reminds me of the last time I went to the cherry blossom festival in SF’s Japan Town. My favorites here are probably the comfortable Cremesheen Glasses because of how moisturizing they are. Thinner than the Lipglasses and non-sticky, too, they just feel really, really great on my lips. Whenever I travel by plane, I always bring a moisturizing Cremesheen along to help my lips cope with the dry, recycled air.

Just a few songs to help get you going this morning. 🙂 Let’s you and I both have a wonderful day!
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

I like Rising Sun the most! Most pieces from this collection don’t really speak to me because I already own something similar, but Rising Sun is gorgeous!
Shanghai Spice, mm, product with my hometown in it always gets me sold.
I really like the way Shanghai spice looks! Thanks for the swatches
Loving Coral Bliss and Rising Sun! Can’t wait to try all of them when they come out! 🙂
I love Coral Bliss and Rising Sun on you! Definitely going to swatch them when I’m in the Mac store 🙂
wow they are all gorgeous but coral bliss is my fave!!!
Coral Bliss and Rising Sun look amazing….I think I’m going to come away from either the MAC counter or website with more than what I had originally planned….
I love Shanghai Spice, Coral Bliss, and Double Happiness. As always Karen, the rest of your makeup looks flawless.
Hellooo Shanghai Spice and Rising Sun! They look really really great on you, I hope they’ll look half that good on me!
Shanghai Spice is gawguuusss!!! And the name – sooo awesome!
Beautiful swatches! The Shanghai Spice is so pretty-going to have to mosey over to my Mac counter & chevk it out!
I am curious about the colors you are wearing on your eyes in these pics. I love the soft, smokey eyelook you have created. Sultry without being too heavy.
Thanks for your great blog. I really enjoy all the reviews you post!

I find Coral Bliss breathtaking. Love it.
shanghai spice and double happiness are calling my name. may have to answer the call.
I usually avoid too much shimmer on my lips, but I will have to check these out. They look so pretty!
P.S. – You look amazing in those lashes!
WELL, hello hottie in the first picture! You look gorg.
I really need to check out this collection, especially for the lipsticks. Pure Zen and Shanghai Spice look really nice.
I’m less excited about the glosses, although I love Cremesheen Glass comfortable formula, I feel like I already own similar shades.
I have to say, these lipsticks and lip glasses look like they were made for you. All of them suit you so well 🙂
Definitely going to check them out when they are launched here. Thanks for the swatches, Karen!
I like Pure Zen on you! Very natural, yet with a subtle touch of glam. Love it! I’d wear this myself.
I think Coral Bliss is exactly what I’ve been searching for! 🙂
holy cow those lashes are the bomb on you!
They all look very pretty and wearable. That rots about the lashes being a pain, though. They were the first thing I noticed in the 1st pic, of course. 🙂
Coral Bliss is definitely your color! It looks amazing on you. I wonder what it would look like on my fair fair skin? Welp, one way to find out.
