11 Cult-Favorite MAC Matte Lipsticks You Have to Try At Least Once

Though I prefer the low-maintenance vibe (and price) of lip gloss from my local beauty supply, MAC lipstick remains a must-have. Rihanna declared her love for Ruby Woo in 2013 and like everyone else, I decided red lipstick would be my love too. Eventually, with my Bad Gal fandom still intact, I realized that red lipstick actually doesn’t go with everything. In fact, it’s a bit too fancy for my just-rolled-out-of-bed aesthetic. Thankfully on the rare day when I actually want to play dress-up, there are plenty of other MAC matte lipsticks to choose from.

Like the iconic Ruby Woo, shades like Sin, Velvet Teddy, and Smoked Purple are just as vibrant but not, well, red. I’ll never forget the first time I discovered Heroine and decided that purple had always been my makeup version of the little black dress. This is–dare I say– the magic of MAC lipsticks. Yes, there’s an overwhelming amount of colors to choose from, but they’ve mastered formulating shades that look singular at first glance, but actually flatter anyone who wears them.

This is especially true when it comes to their dizzying array of matte options, 11 of which may as well have cult status. Thanks to solid reviews and solid sales, we can confirm these are the standouts you have to try at least once; especially if you’re new to MAC products.
