Overview

Meet MAC Powder Kiss Liquid Lipcolour in Date-Maker, a warm nude shade designed for everyday versatility. The lightweight formula glides on with a cushiony, non-sticky feel and settles into a soft, powder-kissed matte finish that looks natural yet finished. Date-Maker pairs well with a broad range of eye looks and skin tones, making it a practical option for quick weekday routines or relaxed weekend moments. The shade can be layered for more intensity or worn alone for a subdued, everyday glow. The result is a modern nude lip that reads polished without heavy shine.

Texture and finish

The formula is lightweight and cushiony, delivering a comfortable, non-sticky sensation with a velvety matte touch. Expect smooth color deposition and edges that feel soft rather than sharp.

• Weightless feel that minimizes lip fatigue
• Even color payoff with a natural matte look
• Low transfer for a steadier finish through the day

Color and wear

In consumer testing, 92% reported the color remained true throughout wear, supporting a consistent look from morning routines to evening plans.

• Long-wearing color with fewer touchups
• Resists feathering for clean, defined edges

Who it’s for and how to use

Date-Maker is a versatile nude that suits many makeup styles, from a clean office look to a relaxed weekend vibe. It pairs well with neutral eye makeup and can be built up for more drama when desired.

Tips for best results: apply to clean lips, allow a moment to set, then layer for increased intensity. Using a nude lip liner can help define edges for sharper looks.
