One of the many difficulties any beauty lover will find is the search for that perfect nude shade that matches your skin tone like a dream. My journey to finding that perfect colour came to an end about three years ago when I caught word of a mac lipstick that would majestically look good on every skin tone. But does such glorious things actually exist? Short answer - YES!

Velvet Teddy by MAC is my go-to nude lipstick; and I swear to god, it's looks good on every skin tone! Velvet Teddy has been on the beauty map for a few years now, ever since Kylie Jenner stated that is was a lipstick that she loves - every single person has had to have it since. p.s if your looking for a dupe for one of her lip kits, this is probably the colour to go for.



This lipstick is completely matte, however not drying what soever. Whilst it's not as long-wearing as a liquid lipstick, it can certainly stand the test of time. The only time you really need a touch-up is after your morning coffee or lunch feed. It's easy to apply, smooth and has a nice brown undertone rather than your traditional pink undertone that you'll find in traditional nude lipsticks. This is what I'd attribute to this colour suiting 80% of skin tones! While Velvet Teddy suits every skin tone, it also looks completely different on every one, which makes it so unique.

So if you're on the hunt for a great, long-lasting nude lipstick, Velvet Teddy by MAC is definitely my #1 recommendation!
