Was not sure that the bronze Mac lipstick color would do the trick, but it surely does! There is often times when the long-wearing gels appear too dark. Well, this Mac Bronze color is perfect for giving a golden glow to the darker base shades of long-wearing lipsticks of today. After blotting, it is a wonderful top color for a beautiful golden luster, and it wears just as long as the long-wearing base underneath. I finally found a topper of golden glow that works.
