Way back in May MAC announced they were releasing a new permanent nail line that was going to be available August 2nd (though it is available on the website now and I’ve seen it in some stores…). When I first heard this news it didn’t pique my interest much as MAC is definitely not known for their nail polishes. But then I saw they were releasing a nail polish shade in the same color as my favorite MAC lipstick; Morange. That is when the excitement began and the color definitely did not disappoint!
Morange is a bright orange cream with distinctive red undertones. The color is lovely and quite flattering for an orange. The formula wasn’t great. It was a bit streaky though using three coats did solve that problem.
I was a bit skeptical that MAC would be able to match the nail polish shade exactly to the lipstick. MAC Morange lipstick is an amplified lipstick so it is rather bright. But, I did a comparison of the two (you can see it below the jump) on just white paper and the colors are identical as far as I can tell.
MAC nail polishes are rather pricey at $16. Considering the formula issues I would say pass on these nail polishes unless there is a color you just really want.
