I really love the Velvet Teddy Matte Lipstick color so I knew I had to get this set. If you have your eye on this neutral lip set act fast! I suspect it will sell out very soon.Īll the colors in this set fall under the same neutral color family with slight variations in undertone and finish. My two other Matte favorites from MAC are Velvet Teddy and Kinda Sexy.MAC has some really cute sets out for the holiday season! I’ve ordered a few as gifts this year and and ordered the Velvet Teddy’s Party Crew Vault ($80, value of $145) for myself! I managed to buy it before it sold out at Ulta and Macy’s last week and today it just launched online at MAC Cosmetics.

If you have a very light skin tone like myself, and want to try the 90’s lip trend (which still seems to be very much alive, which is awesome!) but can’t pull off those brownish colors, definitely checkout Whirl. I can imagine that for many people, this will might a MLBB color, but not for me since I’m way too light. I absolutely love Whirl and think it’s a great, classic and timeless color. I definitely recommend exfoliating and prepping your lips prior to applying Whirl, but that’s a bit obvious when it comes to matte lip products. Whirl has a matte finish, but applies smoothly, it doesn’t tug on my skin (which sometimes was an issue with the lip liner when filling my lips with it) and wears for good six hours. MAC describes it as a “dirty rose” which I think is quite perfect. The lipstick definitely has more of those rosy vibes and it’s a bit less brown.

Now, I don’t think that that both “Whirl” lip pencil and the lipstick are identical shades, but they are pretty close and do go great together. Oh… who am I kidding, I’d probably feel the need to buy it anyway, especially because of my deep love for the lip liner. Do you guys remember how much I loved MAC’s lip pencil in Whirl? It’s no surprise that I went a little crazy when I found out that MAC The Matte Lip Collection for Summer 2015 will include a “Whirl” lipstick.Īfter seeing some of my favorite beauty bloggers talk about the beauty that “Whirl” is, I knew I had to have it.
