MAC (LE) Cut-a-Caper Lipstick! Swatches & Lots of Comparisons!

MAC Cut-a-Caper (Limited Edition)
MAC Cut-a-Caper (Limited Edition)
MAC Cut-a-Caper, is a limited edition, lustre finish lipstick from the 2010 "Tarten Tale" collection. The color is a semi-opaque, pinked peach/coral. The color is quite pigmented and can be built very well. It is vibrant, but not nearly as vibrant as it looks in the tube. It has a glossy finish.

For comparison, here is Cut-a-Caper next to Jazzed and Everhip (both limited edition). Sadly, I don't own Ravishing, but it's another lipstick that is often compared to these.

Here are all three swatched on my hand..
Swatches from left to right: MAC Cut-a-Caper, MAC Everhip & MAC Jazzed.
All three lipsticks are very similar. They share the same vibrancy and depth. Cut-a-Caper has the strongest pink tone of the three. Jazzed has the most orange/coral tone. Everhip is the "in-between". It's stronger in pink than Jazzed, and more orange/coral than Cut-a-Caper.

Here are a bunch of comparisons for you.. (I forgot to add Illamasqua Obey in the bunch - which definitely belongs in the category)
