I've been looking for the perfect brown lipstick for a while. I even bought a few, but none were worth talking about, except this one. Antique Velvet is actually a part of the new matte collection and don't worry, they are not limited edition.

At first glance, this seems very similar to Sin, also by MAC. However, the moment I swatched both of them, I could clearly see the difference. They look nothing alike. Antique Velvet is a true dark brown and Sin is a beautiful burgundy.

This product is very pigmented and like any other matte lipstick from MAC that I've tried, this lasts a long time on the lips. Even though it's a dark color, it does not stain my lips and it's very creamy. I would highly recommend to wear this with a lip liner or apply it with a brush, as you can see I didn't, so it looked a bit rough around my mouth.

This is actually the darkest lip color I own. It's absolutely stunning and I truly love it. This looks incredible on any skin tone. If you are daring and enjoy distinct shades, this is ideal for you.
