The iconic product that made M.A.C. famous. Velvet Teddy is a warm tone nude. This shade is also one of the most popular lipsticks sold at M.A.C. that they had to make it in a smaller version.
Benefits:
How to Use:
You can apply it directly to the lips or put lip gloss over it, for a more shiny appearance. I have even seen it be used as eyeshadow on YouTube tutorials.
Ingredients:
Octyldodecanol, Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Silica, Tricaprylyl Citrate, Ozokerite, Isononyl Isononanoate, Paraffin, Phenyl Trimethicone, Microcrystalline Wax/ Cera Microcristallina/ Cire Microcristalline, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Caprylic/ Capric Trigylceride, Copernicia Cerifera (Carnauba) Wax/ Cera Carnauba/ Cire De Carnauba, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Tocopherol, Vanillin, Acrylates Copolymer, Polyethylene Terephthalate, Stearyl Stearoyl Stearate.
May Contain:
Mica, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron Oxides (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 774999), Blue 1 Lake (CI 42090), Carmine (CI 75470), Red 6 (CI 15850), Red 6 Lake (CI 15850), Red 7 Lake (CI 15850), Red 21 Lake (CI 45380), Red 28 Lake (CI 45410), Red 30 Lake (CI 73360), Red 33 Lake (CI 17200), Yellow 5 Lake (CI 19140), Yellow 6 Lake (CI 15985), Yellow 10 Lake (CI 47005).
My Personal Opinion:
This is a matte formula, yet it is not drying and is very comfortable to wear. It looks matte, but feels a little more like a M.A.C. satin, which is my favorite finish. There is probably cheaper color dupes of Velvet Teddy, but M.A.C.'s luxurious, creamy. long-lasting texture makes it worth the extra money. It looks very natural on my lips and compliments any make-up. Since, this is a natural color on my lips, I only have to reapply after a big meal. Otherwise, it's long lasting on the lips. ♡♡♡

I have always heard so much about this lipstick from famous makeup gurus! It seems like a beautiful shade that will tie together any makeup look.
ReplyDeleteI remember wearing MAC eyeshadow for dance, because it stayed on so well. I don't think I have tried their lipsticks though. However, I like the name Velvet Teddy, make up always has the funniest names.
ReplyDeleteThat is such a pretty shade!!! My biggest issue with matte lipsticks is that they can be pretty drying so I'm curious to see if this will be better than what I've already tried. The long-lasting factor mixed with a creamy application is what's making me contemplate a purchase for this line.
