I have to admit that Mac's taupe lipstick has definitely become by ultimate favourite! When I applied this matte lipstick I immediately fell in love with it! I always have preferred the matte finish on my lips and always will!
Although I only just recently realised that my Taupe lipstick is exactly the same as my Revlon's Matte Coca Craving lipstick!


There were hardly any differences between the two lipsticks. The textures are very similar, although Coca Craving seems much more creamier and easy to just glide on.


Both of these lipsticks are a nudey, burnt red/bronze colour and it suits many skin tones, especially darker complexions! I love this shade of lipstick because it brings the best out of my complexion and makes my face just pop! I absolutely love wearing these as every day lipsticks.

As you can see above, the shades are pretty much identical! Revlon's Coca Craving is the perfect dupe of Mac's Taupe lipstick. And I would certainly recommend this to anyone who is looking for that perfect every day, natural lipstick!

Hey everyone!

Last year too, I flagged off the new year with a MAC product review on the Blog, and this new year too, I will continue with this ‘tradition'! Lol, just lends more weightage to the review! 😉

So I'm reviewing the MAC matte lipstick Taupe today! Read on to know why I love it so much!

About MAC Matte lipstick- Taupe: Colour plus texture for the lips. Stands out on the runway. Simmers on the street! What made M·A·C famous.

Price: Rs. 990 for 3g

Packaging: The lipstick comes in the standard MAC packaging- black case with matte-silver details.

Ingredients: Mentioned in the picture below 🙂

My take on MAC Matte lipstick- Taupe: I had been on the lookout for my HG n*de lipstick for a long time, and I finally found it in Taupe. MAC describes it as a muted reddish-taupe brown lipstick, and it is just that. A little brownish in shade, this one goes on as the perfect n*de on my NC-42 skintone and pigmented lips. It has medium pigmentation, covers my lip pigmentation completely, and has a matte finish. You need well prepped lips before applying this one, because matte+ n*de can be a bad combo for chapped, dry lips. Otherwise my favorite shade to wear with heavy smokey eyes. Stays on for a good 3-4 hours, after which a bit of touch-up with lip-balm+ lipstick can make the combo stay for a couple of more hours. It has the signature MAC vanilla fragrance, which I kinda like. Overall, a great n*de shade for a lot of us with yellow skin-tones 🙂 Do try it 🙂

Pros of MAC Matte lipstick- Taupe:

  • Smooth texture
  • Matte finish (my favorite)
  • Stays on for a good 3-4 hours
  • MLBB shade for those with yellow skin undertones

Cons of MAC Matte lipstick- Taupe: None, except you need nicely scuffed/ prepped lips before application, else the dryness may make the lipcolor patchy.

Verdict: If you, like me, have been on the lookout for an MLBB (my lips but better) shade, do give this one a shot. Try it at the store before buying, though. I personally have found my HG n*de shade, and I'm totally in love! <3
