Is Mac Velvet Teddy matte?
Yes! Velvet Teddy is part of the MAC matte lipstick range. It delivers opaque, shine-free colour with a creamy texture and all-day wear.
Matte lipsticks start with a special lipstick base that provides a maximum colour payoff combined with a no-shine texture, they contain several emollients plus a matting agent called Silica and Vitamin E and C derivatives as antioxidants.
There is a reason Velvet Teddy is a classic. It balances pink, peach, brown and nude tones together to create a universally flattering lip colour that’s perfect for all occasions. Try pairing it with the Lip Pencil in Spice for the perfect 90’s pout, and top with a gloss like Mystic Powers to create a high-shine finish. You may also notice that when you remove the lid from a Velvet Teddy lipstick you're hit with the delicious aroma and flavour of Vanilla. This is because our lipsticks contain a unique blend of a crystalline version of Vanilla to give it that blend that makes MAC lipsticks so beautiful.
If you love the colour of Velvet Teddy but would prefer a lipstick with a glossier finish, then the Amplified lipstick in Half N’ Halfwould be an ideal substitute! Our Amplified lipsticks contain jet-milled pigments that deliver pure, saturated colour and an even coverage. Not only do they contain dimensional pearlized pigments that help achieve the purest, brightest colours when applied to the lips, they also contain Ceramide 3, a conditioning agent to help repair the barrier properties of the lips.
