    I bought this lipstick to provide natural looking color when I am wearing foundation. While it does bring out a great color in my eyes, I find that the purple base color also brings out the color...

    Over the years I have purcahsed numerous MAC lipsticks but tend not to use them after a while as they either dry out my lips or I just go off the colour. I have dark pigmented lips that look two...

    I'm a pale girl. I wanted something that would stand out without being too garish. I absolutely love this shade because it's dark enough to be different but great for everyday. Would definitely buy...

    Don't care too much for this color. It looks way to dark for my pale skin.

    This has been a regular color for me for 15 years. When I first bought it, the girl at the counter said it was her "vampire" lipstick because she said it makes you look dead, but in a good way. ...

    I love this lipstick. It is a nice brownish nude color. This lipstick is good for a neutral makeup look and its good if I have bright eyeshadow because it balances out because my lipcolor is not...

    Mac's "Taupe" is my favorite brown/red tone lipstick of all time. When I first purchased "Velvet Teddy", the color was too nude for me and the brown pigment was weak. Taupe is like an intensified...

    I'm a NC30, and the shade and matte finish are perfect for making my lips look natural, clean, and smooth. It covers up all the minor imperfections of my bare lips. Nobody can tell on first glance...

    I really find the name of this shade frustrating. It's not 'taupe'. Taupe doesn't have terra cotta in it! Ahhhh! Anyway! Once I get past the name it's awesome. :) On my light/medium...

    For reference, I'm an NC45. Though this is a matte formula, it doesn't feel as dry as matte lipsticks that I have. In fact, it feels kind of waxy. The color is a nice nudish pick me up kind of...

    I'm with my 5th on this lipstick. Really love the red-brown combination. Not to dark nor to light. Perfect on my skintone. Gives a peachy radiance on my NC35. And the matte didn't dry-out my lip....

    This is a terracotta shade of lipstick. I am NW 20 and it is maybe a tiny bit too warm for me. I find cooler or brighter colors enhance my skintone better. However it is nice in a way it is...

    I'm already on my 4th tube of this lipstick! If you like browns or bronze, then you can't go wrong with this color. It doesn't make you look pale, and it's definitely not nude, but it gives the...

    I've repurchased several times. Nice warmish nude for those who don't want their nude l/s too pale. No frost, semi-matte finish, lasts very well. I wear it with ivory, light warm corally pinks, and...
