MAC Staunchly Stylish Pro Longwear Lip Pencil ($19.50), available now at MAC counters, stores and maccosmetics.com. I know it looks kind of dark in the swatch, but it’s like the color of nude lips on a kisser. The perfect barely-there lip pencil, and talk about flexible. This is the SpellCHEX dictionary for online spell checking. On my lips: I’m wearing MAC Staunchly Stylish Pro Longwear Lip Liner, MAC Revved Up Patentpolish Lip Pencil and NARS Striptease Lip Gloss. How do I feel overall about the MAC Studio Sculpt Shade and Line trios? In the comments yesterday a couple gals mentioned that these weren’t getting rave reviews elsewhere online, I guess, but I think. MAC Staunchly Stylish is a cool-toned, brown with a matte finish. It is a permanent lip liner that retails for $19.50 and contains 0.04 oz. Jump to a particular section if you know what information you're looking for!

I found my first dupe! Unfortunately, I stumbled upon it while I was looking in my container of lipsticks, glosses and liners and realized that one of my new MAC lipliners looked exactly like my first ever NYX lipliner. Oops…

The color and functionality on the lips is really where the similarities of this dupe ends. I’d recommend both products, the color is amazing for daily wear!

Wear on the lips is very similar in application and wear with a lipstick or gloss on top of it. The MAC liner is a Pro Longwear product, and it does last a LOT longer than the NYX formula does, but that is to be expected. Even in just swatching and trying to wipe off the liners from my hand, the MAC swatch stayed even after much rubbing and swiping with a baby wipe.

That being said, I have such a hard time with product staying on my lips because I talk/eat/drink so much anyway, I either give up and forget to reapply or am resigned to having to reapply consistently anyway, so I think the NYX liner is a great value for its money.

MAC Staunchly Stylish Pro Longwear Lip Pencil

MAC Staunchly Stylish Pro Longwear Lip Pencil($19.50) is a soft, rosy-beige long-wearing and transfer-proof lip pencil with a creamy, 'fluid-like' texture that glides to the lips with rich, saturated color.
Lip liner is one of those things that I neglect to use every day, even though I prefer the look of my lips with lip liner. I suppose it's mainly a convenience thing - I like a simple daily routine, and most of the time I just apply what I find is necessary. I do love lip liner though, especially MAC Lip Pencils. It's pretty much the major brand I use, with Oak, Stripdown and Subculture being my go-to shades. I became curious about their Pro Longwear line of lip pencils that launched late last year, as often times I only apply my liner in the morning and it's gone within a couple of hours, so finding a lip liner that will last me for several hours would be wonderful!
The formula of these pencils are pretty nice. They are no doubt creamy and glide easily across the lips. The liner doesn't tug or pull at the lips - just smooth sailing. They dry down to a budge-proof matte finish.
Alone on the lips, the pencil makes my lips look dry and crackled, as the formula really 'clings' to the lips. So, I wouldn't wear it on it's own (or this shade anyway). I like wearing it as a base for my lipstick, or simply applied lightly on the outline of my lips and blended in. I don't find it to be drying when combined with another lip product. I also notice that when it's on my lips, it feels the slightest bit tacky - kind of similar to some formulas of long-wearing lipsticks.. dry, but somewhat sticky? Very minor, though.
MAC doesn't give a length of time that these lip pencils should last, but I find that it holds up really well throughout the day. It holds up well after my morning coffee, and partly goes away with a meal (which typically would be completely gone). If I don't eat or drink, it doesn't budge. It's hands down the longest wearing lip pencil I own.

My only complaint about this lip liner is that my lips seem to react to it, in that while it's on my lips I can feel a slight burn/tingle. I don't really notice it until I pay attention to it - that's how faint it is, but it's definitely there. I've had this problem with few lip products before.
Despite that minor flaw, I'm overall really satisfied with this lip liner and I would try additional shades in the future. Nice n Spicy looks like a nice (very similar) every day shade. For swatches of all of the shades of MAC Pro Longwear Lip Liners, check out Karlasugar.

The Round-Up

Pros:

• Glides easily across the lips without tugging.
• A good shade for daily wear - pairs well with most of my everyday natural pink and nude lipsticks.
• Doesn't dry out my lips (although Temptalia found them to be drying - I didnt. Results will vary.)
• Long-lasting - lasts longer than any other lip liners I own.

Cons:

Mac Staunchly Stylish Lip Liner Color

• Looks a bit dry on the lips when worn alone.
• I'm not sure what ingredient it is, but I get a very mild allergic reaction to this lip liner. I can't tell when I'm wearing other products, but when I'm wearing it alone, I can feel a light burn/tingle.
• It's a bit expensive for a lip liner. A standard MAC lip liner costs $15 and contains more product than the Pro Longwear Lip Liner which is $19.50.
