I searched high and low to find the perfect liner for MAC Rebel and within the MAC brand itself, I just wasn’t satisfied with anything they had. So, I looked elsewhere and found one for only three dollars and change within the NYX Slim Lip Pencil range in the shade Bloom. NYX has got a fantastic selection of colors and this was indeed the one. The pencils themselves are very good quality and if you have never tried them they are well worth the money. I have had MAC Rebel Lipstick in my collection for some time but only recently have fallen in love with it. It’s a cool berry that I feel would look good on many people. It’s a satin finish but it has an almost luminous quality about it.
Disclosure: I bought these products myself.
Mac Red Lipstick + Brick Lip Liner: This is my favorite classic red. Mac Red has a satin finish and is such a great bold color. I wear it with brick lip liner for a tiny bit of a darker contrast around the edges. Great for parties, the holidays, and if you’re going for a more. MAC lip liner and pencils shape, line and fill in lips with creamy colour-true formulas that glide on fluidly with a long-lasting finish.

Mac Rebel Lipstick Review and Swatch
Mac Rebellious Lip Liner Before And After
By Contributor: Sharmistha Chowdhury
Ever since I saw Kareena Kapoor in the Talaash Song “Muskaanein Jhooti Hai”, I was on a hunt for that particular Lipstick. I have thoroughly researched a lot for this berry shade, watched videos on YouTube , read reviews on Blogs. Phew! Anshita also suggested that its MAC Rebel that Kareena is wearing so I had to get it. So today’s review is on this beautiful Mac lipstick from the permanent range.
Mac describes the shade as Mid Tone Plum. The color I feel is a deep plum shade with berry tones with a subtle shine in it. In the tube it looks darker and resembles some kind of vampy shade but on lips it looks so beautiful and sexy. A single swipe is enough to cover any pigmentation on lips. The lipstick comes in a satin finish which is slightly on a sheer side.
The texture is creamy and smooth and that helps to build the intensity of the shade. MAC Lipsticks are highly pigmented and the staying power is amazing. On my lips it stays put for 6-7 hrs with meals and tons of gossips. The lipstick is from the the permanent range so a typical black bullet with signature Vanilla Fragrance.

Only drawbacks which I feel are that it fades unevenly and looks quite awful. Its quite a difficult task to remove this lipstick as it leaves behind a strong stain. So I suggest that you use baby oil to remove it.
The Good things:
- A cult favorite shade
- Looks almost similar to the shade which Kareena Kapoor wore in movie Talaash
- Madly pigmented shade.
- Signature Vanilla Fragrance.
- Amazing staying power.
- Satin Finish which glides on lips very easily.
The Bad things:

Recommendation: Mac Rebel is a deep berry plum lipstick which would suit a lot of Indian skin tones. The texture, pigmentation and staying power is absolutely good. It’s a lip color that can turn you into a diva within minutes!
