So that’s that! MAC Mattes are really some of my favourite lipsticks, (the Retro Mattes even more so) as they’re fairly consistent, comfortable to wear and reasonably long wearing too! And well this is properly matte too, so I know I would enjoy wearing and bringing it out without fear of it melting (like the NARS). I guess I’m really in to that sort of color but never mind! This is a bright orangey pink, which I hazard leans a tiny more (neon) pink (Juliette is perfectly 50-50, but has shimmer in it). Lastly, I’m still not over my coral phase, so I picked the brightest of them all, Tropic Tonic (“full power coral”)! But it’s quite a bummer coz it looks so similar to my NARS Audacious in Juliette .

One caveat though with super deep shades like this is how to get it to appear even-as you can see below, the color thins out on my mid-lower lip. I also thought this would be hard to pull-off for casual wear but I wore it out recently and I didn’t feel too weird about it. This is exactly what I hoped it would be, a deep, purple color devoid of warm undertones. I chose Instigator as I seem to lack a truly deep plum lipstick.not berry, not wine, but a true-bluey plum.

But even before I can describe how it looks, I bet it’s going to look different on another skin tone anyway. It’s such an intriguing color! Though described simply as “dirty rose”, I can’t quite place the deep yet muted, pinky yet browny shade. Out of the four, Whirl has got to be the color I’m most excited about. This is my everyday lipstick at the moment! I usually use this with a lipliner but I’m surprised how natural it turned out here when worn without. I actually got it because of my Kylie lip obsession but aside from that, this is such a pretty, versatile pinky nude. Velvet Teddy has been part of the permanent line long before but is not available in our local MAC stores. Swatches (from L-R): Velvet Teddy, Whirl, Tropic Tonic, Instigator Their matte texture’s also very reliable I know already what to expect-like a dear old friend, these MAC mattes are. There’s no rhyme or reason for my color selection, I actually just picked from the promo photos and descriptions. I have quite a number of MAC mattes and for me nothing beats them in terms of value for money, shade variety and availability. MAC Matte Lipsticks in (from L-R) Velvet Teddy (old shade), Whirl (new), Instigator (new), Tropic Tonic (new) While they will all be permanent shades–and as such no real need for a rush, I knew I had to get at least a couple right away! Here are my picks!
poor me did not stand a chance when MAC launched 22(!) all-matte shades this summer.
