TEDDY MAKEUP IS ALL ABOUT
 COZY SOFT GLAM

Luxurious statement neutrals – from structured camel skirts to chocolate-brown leather sets – are trending on the runways. The season’s must-have item? An oversized teddy coat with soft glam makeup to match.

Inspired by the cozy textile that bears its name, M·A·C Velvet Teddy has been beloved by celebs for decades. “Teddy Makeup feels very, very expensive,” says Terry Barber, M·A·C Creative Director of Makeup Artistry. “It’s the timeless classic supermodel beauty brought up-to-date with creamy textures, satin finishes and balanced neutrals.”

Combining pink, peach and brown, Teddy is a classic shade that now comes in a family of finishes and variations for an on-trend monochromatic look. Reach for the remastered M·A·Cximal Silky Matte Lipstick in Velvet Teddy or try the brand-new Warm Teddy for a deeper, tonka-bean tone. For a peachier, nostalgic look, grab the viral Powder Kiss Lipstick in Teddy 2.0. Finish your neutral makeup look with Eye Kohl in Teddy, a soft brown eye liner that gently defines eyes.

As a universally flattering shade that covers a range of undertones, Teddy Makeup takes the guesswork out of the season’s neutrals. “Finding the perfect neutral is almost like finding the perfect pair of jeans,” says Barber. “It’s the thing that makes everything work.”


“FINDING THE PERFECT NEUTRAL IS
ALMOST LIKE FINDING THE PERFECT PAIR
OF JEANS. IT’S THE THING THAT MAKES
EVERYTHING WORK.”

—TERRY BARBER, M·A·C CREATIVE DIRECTOR OF MAKEUP ARTISTRY

M·A·Cximal Silky Matte Lipstick in Warm Teddy has a slightly deeper, tonka bean-inspired tone.
