MACximal Matte Lipstick - Beige

The MAC Macximal Silky Matte Lipstick offers a true matte finish with no discernible sheen. The 'Silky' aspect refers to its comfortable feel and smooth application, not its finish.

While individual wear time varies, this lipstick is designed for long wear, typically lasting several hours. Longevity can be extended by prepping lips with a primer and liner, and by blotting between layers.

Beige shades are generally versatile. This specific beige is formulated to complement a wide range of skin tones, offering a neutral yet sophisticated look. Its appearance may vary slightly based on individual lip pigment and skin undertones.

This matte lipstick can be effectively removed using a dual-phase (oil and water) makeup remover or a dedicated lip makeup remover. Gently press a cotton pad soaked in remover onto your lips for a few seconds, then wipe away.

Store your lipstick upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme heat. This helps maintain its texture and prevents melting or drying out.

Ensure lips are exfoliated and moisturized prior to application. Apply a lip primer for a smoother base.

Thoroughly moisturize lips with a balm before applying. If irritation persists, consider a lip primer or discontinue use.

For extended wear, apply a first layer, blot with a tissue, and then apply a second layer. Using a lip primer and lip liner can also improve longevity.

Gently push the bullet back into the tube and store it in a cool place. Avoid twisting the lipstick up too far during application.
