+mollyxiong1 I can definitely get that going... I do have my favorite lipstick pairings by liner in my blog post. bit.ly/1VDTriw Please feel free to check that out in the meantime! xx
This video was so helpful because I wanted to buy some MAC lip pencils online but I was sure what the colours would look like on my skin or if I trusted the colours in the pictures. But now I know which ones I want to thank you! :)
That very first color you showed was so beautiful I am a big nude lip fanatic so I loved a lot of the colors your showed! Great video thanks for sharing :)
BeautyInAmin I'm not kidding when I say that Buerre is one of my favorite lip liners of all time... Also a little bird told me that the creme stick liners will be discontinued in the near future.. SO if you like it I would suggest going to try it on and stocking up if you fall in love :) Thank you for watching xx
Gabriella D Thank you so much!! it's definitely one of my faves :) What's your favorite lip liner brand? I've been thinking of branching off of MAC... let me know! xx
+Kerry Davies I've noticed with the Prolongwear lip liners that you need a professional grade sharpener or else a regular sharpener will eat the product.
+ReeRee HoShing www.graytracy.com/new-blog-1/2015/8/4/mac-lip-pencil-collection-review this link leads to the blog post where I give my top three suggested lipsticks to each lip pencil. Hope this helps!
+Rainbow3264 I will definitely start working on it! I wasn't sure if it was of interest!! Be on the lookout! Thanks for letting me know you'd be interested! xx
+nnylda haysia I use either a sharpener from MAC ($10), from Anastasia Beverly Hills ($6) or from Dior, I would definitely use a professional grade pencil sharpener or the pencil will be ruined!!
+flokwiatkowska hi! Sorry I'm not sure I follow what you mean.. if you have any questions on color, please let me know I'd be happy to clarify :) Also here is the link to my blog post, this may also help! www.graytracy.com/new-blog-1/2015/8/4/mac-lip-pencil-collection-review
Great video, I found this so helpful. I currently own 3 lip liners from mac (half red,magenta and redd). I love them so much and wanted to pick up a few more but with the selection it can be kind of overwhelming. After watching your video...I now have a list of which one to get. 😁
It's Ablaze! Ahh its a limited edition liner - if you like this shade the closest I've seen at MAC is Chic Trick lip pencil, which is permanent. Let me know if that helps!
Absolutely, it can look completely different if your skin tone is lighter. That or depending on when I got my pencil versus when you got yours, the formula/shade could have shifted a bit. (Lol, that's just the unfortunate truth about makeup.) Thanks for watching love! Xo
GrayTracy thanks for the reply. I am so glad I found your video, as I'm looking for the perfect Mac lip liner for me. I favour the dirty pink look with the tiniest, tiniest hint of brown. I want it to look like I haven't got anything on my lips, but I also have....if that makes any sense? Lol. You've convinced me to get Soar and possibly Dervish, Edge to edge is just a little too pink....but I'm getting it again as I still like it.
I'm so happy you've found this video helpful. I would also suggest checking out Whirl - it's similar to Soar but browner. 💕 I think you would really like it!
GrayTracy I was thinking of Whirl too, but not sure as I tend to prefer it being more pink than brown. But I will swatch them all on my hand when I next visit the Mac store. I always feel like they're watching me like a hawk when I'm doing that though, I wish I could feel more relaxed when shopping! Again, thanks for the help 💜
I know what you mean, but... Speaking from someone that used to work for MAC, lol, I don't think they're watching you to be awkward or make you feel like you're being watched. When I would see someone looking at a lip liner or lipstick I was trying to understand what shades they were at for to help guide them to something to pair with that item. 💜 Happy swatching love!
Hi new subbie you had me at lip liner junkie this was very helpful and informative love MAC and there is never too much MAC in my opinion agree with you on so many points Stripdown does nothing for me as well
Hey, i wanted to ask you actually about application. I recently started wearing makeup and i am struggling so bad at applying lipliners... If i literally color my whole lips it just looks way too cakey and if i just do a couple of strokes and try to blend it the lipliner is so unblendable it hurts, so i end up again coloring the whole thing... If that even makes sense... Anyway i would appreciate it if sb helped me out here... Also do you wear lipliner alone without lipstick on top? Thanks in advance! New subbie here also ;)
+dailyuser1000 I would suggest investing in a lip primer- my favorite is MAC prep + prime lip, if you would like a more affordable option I have heard good things about the Colour Pop lip primer. This will help with smoother application, longevity and true color payoff. I love wearing lip liners alone, just has to be the right color :) Thank you for watching! I hope this helps
I'm wearing a shade called Ablaze which unfortunately is discontinued! The closest shade I could recommend to you would be Fruit Cocktail Lip Pencil by MAC :)
You are absolutely stunning! You're videos are amazing, you deserve wayyy more subscribers than you have! I've subscribed and will look forward to more of your videos!
HELP! I currently own 4 nude Mac lipsticks: Whirl, Taupe, velvet teddy and mehr. Which Mac lipliner should I get to kind of match all of them? I've been told stripdown is a good one, do you agree?
Hi! Loved your video and I'm one to rarely comment on videos :) Just wondering, do you happen to find Beet a bit dry/patchy looking and hard to apply on your lips? I have it and it's a beautiful color but it looks weird when I apply it, it looks darker in places where I applied a bit too much pressure and idk what to do :(
+berrymerrymakeup HI! Make sure sure to always exfoliate your lips to avoid patchiness and the pencil feeling dry. You can also try warming up the pencil on the back of your hand before applying so it applies a bit smoother. I always always always apply a lip primer, my favorite is MAC prep + prime lip, especially before applying a lip pencil to ensure it glides on smooth! I hope that helps!! xx
+Ritza Herrera Hi! So the main difference is that stripdown has a lot of caramel brown undertones, where oak is far more neutral (not too orange, gold or pink). Also, stripdown is darker than oak! Hope that helps!
Well, now I know more about the lip pencils by MAC, I really thought that they did have a big selection but I was wrong, thanks again Tracy! XOXO #sharewithme lol
Marisol Gomez Thanks for watching love! They really do have a great selection.. The prolongwear range is pretty big and those are my next babies! I'm so happy this was insightful :)
Lol I just got spice today before I even saw your video.. I saw handash use oak and thought it was too dark for me so I went with spice - omg it’s the best lip color for me ever! It’s not too brown - not too red - not plum or pink - it’s perfect❤️ new holy grail - if you haven’t tried buxom lip pencils (the fat ones) hush hush is a great nude and has been my go to for years - just an FYI it’s a pretty nude as well
Can you do a video on what lipsticks you pair your lipliners with. Thanks.
+mollyxiong1 I can definitely get that going... I do have my favorite lipstick pairings by liner in my blog post.

Please feel free to check that out in the meantime!

Idk if anyone said it yet but the "buerre" is actually "beurre" like Butter in french
i was about to coment this
and it's pronounced, "burrrr"
This video was so helpful because I wanted to buy some MAC lip pencils online but I was sure what the colours would look like on my skin or if I trusted the colours in the pictures. But now I know which ones I want to thank you! :)
Great MAC lip liner video! One of the best on you tube! Please continue with your reviews!
You have no idea how much that means to me, I have a few things lined up! Thanks so much!!
GrayTracy ---that is great news for us on youtube thank you!! :) I'll be looking forward to your wonderful and comprehensive reviews-- yay!!
That very first color you showed was so beautiful I am a big nude lip fanatic so I loved a lot of the colors your showed! Great video thanks for sharing :)
BeautyInAmin I'm not kidding when I say that Buerre is one of my favorite lip liners of all time... Also a little bird told me that the creme stick liners will be discontinued in the near future..

I think I'm gonna buy all those nude lip liners! They all look so good!
+Yenyiyani Siegfried You really can't have enough nude lip liners!! Thanks for watching! xx
Ýý
Half red is beautiful on your lips. Made it look full and plump.
Buerre is not pronounced "beret" it's pronounced "burr". It's French for butter.
I met Ms. Gray at CVS, and Let me tell you... She's very Beautiful in Person and very Humble and Sweet like Tea
You're so sweet!!!
You are so gorgeous!!! Ruby Woo lip liner looks amazing on you
Gabriella D Thank you so much!! it's definitely one of my faves :) What's your favorite lip liner brand? I've been thinking of branching off of MAC... let me know! xx
I actually love the Palladio Herbal Lip Liners! They are really inexpensive, but are super creamy and long wearing! Definitely recommend them! :)
Gabriella D Okay great!! Thanks so much :)

Hi, just purchased Mac nice n spicey. Having a bit of trouble how to get the product out..... Love your videos.
+Kerry Davies I've noticed with the Prolongwear lip liners that you need a professional grade sharpener or else a regular sharpener will eat the product.
Thank you for sharing your collection. It would be useful to suggest more lipliner/lipstick combos.
+ReeRee HoShing www.graytracy.com/new-blog-1/2015/8/4/mac-lip-pencil-collection-review this link leads to the blog post where I give my top three suggested lipsticks to each lip pencil. Hope this helps!

Be on the lookout! Thanks for letting me know you'd be interested! xx
+GrayTracy I too would love to see it :)
How do you sharpen your Mac pro longwear lip liner? Thanks. Xx
+nnylda haysia I use either a sharpener from MAC ($10), from Anastasia Beverly Hills ($6) or from Dior, I would definitely use a professional grade pencil sharpener or the pencil will be ruined!!
I really liked your swatches, but the bits where you talk about a color with different on got me confused every time

Hunniebunches020405 I'm glad you found it helpful!! There really is a large selection, it's all about trying them on! xx
Love your lip color in the intro! Do you remember what it is?!
It's Ablaze! Ahh its a limited edition liner - if you like this shade the closest I've seen at MAC is Chic Trick lip pencil, which is permanent. Let me know if that helps!
I'm not sure why, but Edge to edge looks darker on me. Perhaps because I'm paler?

Hope that helps!
