MAC lipsticks have been a mainstay in the makeup industry for years. They’re super affordable and provide a variety of colours that can be matched to your skin tone. But how do you find the best MAC lipstick colour for you?
There are so many shades to choose from, and it can be hard to know where to start. From light pink to dark purple, I’ve got you covered.
Retro Matte Lipstick – Ruby Woo
If you’re looking for a MAC lipstick that’s perfect for darker skin tones, then I recommend Retro Matte Lipstick in Ruby Woo. A beautiful bright red, not too dark, not too bright. Very versatile and works on all skin tones.
Retro Matte Lipstick – All Fired Up
A fun, playful pink. All Fired Up is very pigmented and a good choice for any occasion. A very close second to Ruby Woo.
Matte Lipstick – Lady Danger
Lady Danger is a stunning bright orangy-red that will make you stand out. The colour pigments in this one are incredible.
Matte Lipstick – Taupe
Taupe is an excellent nude shade that works on all skin tones. Perfect for people who want a versatile everyday lipstick that can be dressed up or down.
Matte Lipstick – Diva
Diva is my absolute favourite. A deep purply-red that’s perfect for darker skin tones. Very unique and will set you apart from everyone else in the room.
Satin Lipstick – Rebel
Rebel is a deep dark purple that gives serious bad girl vibes. Very pigmented, gorgeous, and perfect for making your complexion pop.
Satin Lipstick – MAC Red
MAC Red is a darker red with so much brightness to it. Wonderful in a satin finish for any occasion when you want a bold look.
Amplified Lipstick – Morange
Morange is a glossy bright orange that’s brilliant for darker skin tones. Very pigmented and fun, great for a vibrant playful look without going too dark.
Amplified Lipstick – Smoked Almond
If you want something more laid back, Smoked Almond is a gorgeous pinkish-nude that matches any skin tone. Perfect for everyday wear from a walk in the park to a night out.
Amplified Lipstick – Brick-O-La
Brick-O-La is a glossy pink that is brilliant for darker skin tones and achieves a natural look with just enough colour. Versatile enough to wear all year round.
