Have you finally gotten your hands on the ever so popular Velvet Teddy lipstick? If not here is all you need to know about this outstanding colour. Not only is this one of the famous Kylie Jenners go to favourite lipstick, it is also one of Macs most popular lip product. This colour works on almost every skin tone! It is the most popular nude lipstick out there, with a mauve brown colour to it. Velvet Teddy goes on the lips so smoothly, and does not dry them out even though it does have a matte finish. For those of you who have yet to use a Mac lipstick, you will be more then pleased to know that Macs lip sticks all smell like a vanilla cupcake. Who can resist the smell of cupcakes being lathered on their lips? The hype around this lipstick is no joke. Velvet Teddy has a mauve finish which look beautiful for any occasion, fancy or casual and literally all year round. Whether it be on a warm summer day or a cold winter night Velvet Teddy defiantly is the perfect accessory for any outfit.
Velvet Teddy is a perfect match for almost any Mac lip liner. The number one go to lip liner for Velvet Teddy is Macs Whirl lip liner. Now most of you probably have not gotten the chance to purchase this liner yet, due to the fact that it is almost ALWAYS out of stock in Mac stores. Whirl lip liner is a pinkish- brown colour that can be worn with lipstick or just on its own. It is a long lasting colour that only needs to be applied once a day! Whirl lip liner is a perfect lip colour for an evening look considering its darker tones. Whirl lip liner matches with Velvet Teddy lipstick almost perfectly! These two products together look like a match made in heaven. Both Mac products have outstanding reviews, they are completely true to the hype.
There are a bunch of Kylie Jenner lipstick tutorials using these two products, so almost anyone can get the Kylie Jenner lip look..This link right here shows a demonstration of how to apply the lip liner and lip stick to get the Kylie Jenner look https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zEAfD0mvdw. You tube offers a wide range of makeup tutorials that will also give you the Kylie Jenner lip look.. These two Mac lip products have received nothing but positive feedback on www.makeupally.com if you wanted to take a look at some feedback from Velvet Teddy and Whirl lip liner users I defiantly recommend taking a look at this website to view feedback on Mac products. Although both of these colours are hard to get your hands on due to their popularity, I most defiantly recommend Velvet Teddy lip stick and Whirl lip liner.

These are two products you can not go wrong with buying. Visit Macs website to take a closer look at these lip products! www.maccosmetic.ca Stay tuned for my next blog on Macs make up!
What girl doesn’t lust over a makeup bag full of MAC? Here at The Dupe Diaries, we LOVE MAC products but sometimes, you just can’t afford to splash out €20 on a lipstick.
We’ve searched high and low to find some pretty convincing dupes for our favourite MAC nude lipsticks and lipliners (this is The Dupe Diaries, after all).
We’ve photographed our favourite MAC nudes with their dupes. MAC products are on on the lower lip, while we’re wearing the dupes on our top lips.
Sara’s Picks
MAC Faux lipstick €19.50 Vs Essence Cool Nude €2.89
Faux is such an easy-to-wear nude, with substantial colour, for those who don’t like a really pale nude. It’s a great natural colour without making you look washed out. This Essence lipstick is a fantastic dupe for Faux. The colour is extremely similar and the texture is also a really good match.
MAC Kinda Sexy €19.50 Vs Wet’n’Wild Just Peachy €2.99
This is one of my all time favourite lipsticks from MAC. It’s an extremely flattering shade and another great neutral for day or night. This Wet’nWild number is an almost perfect match but with a slightly more moisturising texture so for those of you who don’t like a really matte lipstick, this would be a great one to get.
Claire’s Picks
MAC Velvet Teddy €19.50 Vs Wet’n’ Wild Bare It All €2.99
Velvet Teddy cemented it’s cult status when it became a go-to for Kylie Jenner, and again it’s a great shade for flattering all skin tones. I personally find it a little drying as it’s a matte finish, so I usually wear it with lip balm, as you can see from the photos below. I actually prefer the finish of the Wet’n’Wild dupe, as it’s creamier. In terms of durability, both last for hours, and are staples in my makeup bag!
MAC Hue €19.50 Vs NYX Summer Love €5.99
Hue is a firm favourite for many Irish girls, as it’s a pinky nude and very wearable for day and night. Although they don’t swatch similarly as you can see below, once on the lips, they are pretty much identical. I get similar wear time out of both, and because they are a little creamier (Hue is a glaze finish), they don’t last as long as the matte finishes.
MAC lip liner dupes
We both love MAC lip liners. The colours are great, they’re very long wearing and the pencils themselves are very long (neither of us has managed to use up a full pencil yet), but at €16.50 a pop, they’re a tad pricey. We’ve found some great dupes for them at a fraction of the price. Some of the dupes don’t have quite as creamy a consistency as MAC but the difference is barely noticeable and they last just as long.
MAC Boldly Bare €16.50 Vs Rimmel Spice €4.79
MAC Subculture €16.50 Vs Wet’n’Wild Willow €1.99
MAC Spice Vs Catrice Upper Brown Side €1.99
MAC Dervish Vs Catrice That’s What Rose Wood Do! €1.99
