Lip-Talk 37 : PAC Satin Lip Cream (SPONSORED)

Hi guysssss...

Yessss, it's time for another lippie recommendation from #Pink. No no, don't say "again???" just yet because guess what, i finally find my lip cream match from heaven! You know that i was never a big fan of matte lip creams right (i just don't enjoy the way they feel on my lips in general), in the past year or so i finally learn to tolerate them because they are everywhere and as a beauty blogger, it is impossible for me not to try out a bunch of them (and in turn, grow a tolerance for them) but i have never found one that i truly enjoy and would actually consciously pick to wear instead of my fave regular lipstick in a bullet - until now, ofc!

I finally find the love of my lip cream life... with PAC's newest product : PAC Satin Lip Cream!

PAC Satin Lip Cream is LUV!

I don't think i need to explain about the brand PAC anymore as they are super well known in Indonesia already, in short they are part of Martha Tilaar family and catered more towards professionals as their products are very high quality and meet the international standards. I have previously had the privilege of trying and reviewing their Studio Coverage Series which is their newest base makeup series (review of PAC Studio Coverage Series can be found here) and i explain a little bit more about their background there so you can go to that post to learn more about them too. 

I totally loved my experience with their Studio Series so i was more than just a little excited when they team up once again with Surabaya Beauty Blogger for this Satin Lip Cream collab!

The package arrived in this pretty gold colored box

Box filled with lippies can only be described as box of happiness!

There are currently 7 shades in this line of Satin Lip Cream 

Each lip cream comes in a black and white unicarton that is very PAC (meaning i could recognize that the product is from PAC from miles away)

Ingredient list (as usual, i only snap one of the shades, there would be a bit of variations especially on the coloring ingredients for each shade, but the main ingredients are all the same)

Each Satin lip cream contains 3g - and they are all anti-animal test! They are all also Halal and contains no paraben 

The actual lip cream comes in a frosted plastic tube with black cap, it is simple but sophisticated and i always appreciate transparent packaging that ensure user's ease when they have multiple of the shades from the same line

Here are the swatches of all 7 shades :

Under natural sun light :
L-R : 01 Silk Cherry, 02 Dolce Bennet, 03 Misty Chocolate. 04 Unbearable Goddess, 05 Lilac Power, 06 Pink Frontline, 07 Purple Demigod
They have pretty lovely shade range, from pink, purple to nudes. I would say that they are missing true reds and orange - but that might means new shade additions in the future? I am totally hopeful!

And this is under artificial light

As you can see from the swatches, they have satin matte finish (like the name suggested). They do dry completely (as in you don't feel any wetness on your lips but it doesn't look dead matte on your lips - which i like, i prefer satin-like lips compared to super dry matte lips!) but they are super comfortable! They are also very light and although they still transfer, it is minimal (this always means that the product lasts very long on your lips). The weightlessness and comfort means there are no cracking problems and i can wear it all day long without feeling miserable as they stay perfect and feels almost like i am not wearing anything! Sounds totally ideal, right? Coz they are! Didn't i already tell you they are my ultimate fave lip cream??? Yes, no other lip creams come close!

The formula is light and creamy. They are not runny but also not overly whipped, just smooth and application is easy too! The pigmentation is da bomb (as expected from PAC, i know their level and expect nothing less from them!) so i don't ever need to re-dip the wand for a full coverage. 

The applicator is pretty regular, the tip is pretty small but i don't find it to cause anything negative. To line my lips i flip it and the pointy tip makes it easy to line my lips neatly

PAC Satin Lip Cream contains UV Protection, moisturizer complex and bisabolol (as anti irritant) so they resulted in intense color, high coverage and are water proof. 

Even better? They smell gooood :D! They have a very yummy fruity candy scent, sometimes artificial candy scents in lip products can smell too artifical but not these, i personally really enjoy the scent as much as i enjoy the formulation and the shades - i hope you're not bored of me raving about this product yet because i really do love them!

I usually can't stand wearing matte lip creams for a very long period of time, the super matte one usually would make my lips dry as a desert and sometimes even flake off while the more comfortable ones would totally say bye bye after a meal - but this PAC Satin Lip Cream can stay on my lips for the whole day and i wouldn't even remember that i am wearing a lip cream, they also pretty much stay intact after heavy meals (i would only have to do some minor retouch if i eat very messily) - what's there not to love, you tell me!!!

Now let's talk about the shades :

PAC Satin Lip Cream in 01 Silk Cherry 

Silk Cherry is a deep pink toned red 

It's a gorgeous color and is one of my faves

PAC Satin Lip Cream in 02 Dolce Bennet

Dolce Bennet is a nude pink shade

For a pale person like me, nude pink can be the worst shade to wear as they wash me out completely - but Dolce Bennet is just the right kind of nude pink that it still compliments the pink in my skin tone and brings them out instead of blending out to nothingness *LOL* (hey this happens a lot of nude pinks for me). It actually still looks very good on me (if i may say so myself ahem), but i personally like wear it with darker shades to create an ombre look

PAC Satin Lip Cream in 03 Misty Chocolate

Misty Chocolate is a beautiful brownish, peachy nude

Again, they type of shade that i usually shy away from, but it is not so pale that i can actually still pull it off even with minimal makeup without looking sick. 

The tagline of this product is playful lips, and i find it to be very true as the shades can be mix and matched to create all kinds of effects. I personally really like to create ombre lips with the nude shades (02 and 03) mixed with the darker shades (in fact, if you see my current photos or IG stories, i mostly use them like this because i love the effect so much!) - they truly make my lips playful!

PAC Satin Lip Cream in 04 Unbearable Goddess

Unbearable Goddess is the only metallic shade in this line (ohhhh i hope they'll come up with more metallic shades! Metallic lippies can be very tricky, not every shade can look good on the lips but PAC definitely nailed it so i can't wait for them to bring out more metallic lippies!), it's wine colored and super duper gorgeousss

I pretty much LOVE all of the shades in this line it's hard to play favorites, but Unbearable Goddess might be it

PAC Satin Lip Cream in 05 Lilac Power

Lilac Power is a pale purplish pink

Again, this is the type of shade that scares me as it is pale but kinda neon and that type of shade doesn't usually look good on me. But hey, again, PAC knows what they are doing, it still looks good on me even with minimal makeup like this! Very sweet color for a playful girly looks, i am going to play with this shade more and see what kind of saccharine sweet look i can come up with!

PAC Satin Lip Cream in 06 Pink Frontline

I've said this many many times, not a fan of pink lipstick but look at how juicy and sweet Pink Frontliner makes my lips look!

Seriously, there is no single shade in this line that can make me dislike it....

PAC Satin Lip Cream in 07 Purple Demigod

Purple Demigod is a deep reddish purple shade, it's not as dark as it looks on the tube but still dark enough to make it fall appropriate

It's another fave of mine, i do hope that they'd come up with an even deeper purple that is more vampy!

I know i am very very positive throughout this post, and yes these are sent to me but i am not told to rave about it (nor i am paid to say so), but i truly, madly, deeply in love with PAC's Satin Lip Cream and when i am in love, i want the whole world to know it.

Let me recount all of their beauty to you : they are very comfortable, kind to my lips (no dry or cracky lips after wearing them non stop since i receive them), has gorgeous shade range, very pigmented, smells good, long lasting and they're still around the price range that i deem acceptable for professional lippies (i think they are around IDR 110k each) - they definitely meet all of my lips #xPACtation - what's yours?

Where can you find them? Everywhere actually, but if happen to be in Surabaya like me, get them at Centro Galaxy Mall because they are currently on promo there!

For more information on them, don't forget to follow PAC at Instagram (@pac_mt), Facebook (@PAC Martha Tilaar) and Twitter (@PAC_MT).

Thank you to PAC and Surabaya Beauty Blogger for the chance, i am super stoked to be able to experience these beautiful product and discover my true love!
