Admittedly something I'm not used to and something my Mum voiced she wasn't a fan of.
But applied directly onto my lips it's more of a muted medium-dark beige with a pink undertone. But nevertheless, this matte shade from MAC is worthy of its cult status - could it possibly be the best nineties nude? Velvet Teddy is described as "deep-tone beige" with a matte finish. Bur fast forward a few months and we all now know that isn't necessarily the truth. Velvet Teddy has an acclaimed reputation as the lip product behind Kylie Jenner's infamous pout and consequently was a sell out. So, it wasn't long until I popped the ever so popular shade into my basket and on its arrival straight onto my lips. It’s gorgeous blue tones give it a beautiful pink colour that’s going to be a staple of yours, it’s easy to fall in love with.After putting out feelers via a Twitter poll as what MAC lipstick I should purchase next (enabling at its best), MAC Velvet Teddy came out top, dominating 48% of the vote. Snob is another that is fabulous for wearing every day, taking your daily makeup look to another level. It’s as pink as you can get, I absolutely love it! For all girly girls Saint Germain is a must have, it’s one of Mac’s oldies but goodies. Saint Germain is what I like to think of as the ultimate bubblegum Barbie pink. Now Myth doesn’t have the best reviews online, but I’m here to prove that it doesn’t look like you’re slicking on concealer, well not on me anyway! Myth was one of my first ever Mac lipsticks, I wanted to go for something quite safe, and you can’t ever go wrong with a nice nude. My boyfriend chose it for me so I honestly was really pleasently surprised when I tried it for the first time! Blankety looks gorgeous and is subtle enough for every day wear, or team it with a darker lipliner (I like Spice from Mac) to ramp it up for more of an evening look. So, like almost every other girl on the planet, I wanted to give the Kylie Jenner lips a try! Enter Velvet Teddy, which after much deliberation on whether to get this, as frankly it’s completely out of my comfort zone and far darker than I’d usually go for – I’m really glad I gave it a go! It’s a rich colour that lasts ages and really stands out if you want to jazz up your makeup or outfit.īlankety is my go-to nudey-brown kind of colour. The Mac lipsticks are not cheap so you want to know you’re making the right decision before you buy!įrom left to right these are the swatches of: Velvet Teddy, Blankety, Myth, Saint Germain and Snob.Īs you can see, I have quite pale skin, so if you do too then you can get a good idea of what these shades would look like on you. This is for all of you who would like to buy a new Mac lipstick but are agonising over which shade to pick – I hope this helps.
This is my first ever blog – and I’m not the most technical person ever – so please bear with me!
