I'm using this product without a single complaint. The only downside is that it's frequently out of stock online.

MAC really knows how to nail these colors! I'm thrilled to be back to MAC. First off, when you open the case, that signature MAC chocolate scent is just divine! If you have a deep undertone, I'd recommend this even more. It's matte, but not overly drying.

매트 립스틱 [토프]

I was really surprised when I first applied it, but the more I used it, the more I found myself reaching for it. It's the only MAC lipstick I've almost completely used up.

I absolutely loved that it's a true brown lipstick. It's not an orangey brown, but more of a reddish-brown tone. Because of this, it doesn't make you look washed out, but actually quite pretty. When applied lightly, it looks natural, and as you layer it on the lips, it becomes more muted and deep.

The color payoff might vary significantly depending on your natural lip color.

It's a MLBB shade that matches my complexion well. I think it would have been even prettier if it had a bit more color saturation.

It transfers easily onto everything. I'm generally quite forgiving when it comes to cosmetics, so apart from the transfer issue, I think it's pretty good. However, because it smudges so easily, I can't really wear it with a mask. I only use it when I want to look my best for someone special, willing to put up with the inconvenience.

My skin is on the darker side and I have two-toned lips, so choosing lipstick colors has always been a challenge. But Taupe is just so easy to apply - a quick swipe and a bit of blending, and it looks absolutely beautiful. It's MAC, so... what more needs to be said? The absorbs well, and the color payoff is excellent. Just a heads up - don't rely too much on the swatch photo! It was taken in low light, so there's quite a difference from how it looks in person.

It's a tad dark, but honestly, I don't have any real complaints. It's just good overall.

The autumn deep shade is a perfect match! The staying power is great, and it's so easy to apply.

While I was a bit disappointed that I used it up faster than expected, I've already repurchased it and continue to use it.

It's a perfect blend of brown and red that you can find in drugstore brands!

When used alone, it can look a bit earthy, and it tends to accentuate dead skin cells.

First off, it's perfect as a deep undertone base. While using bright red or other high-saturation colors can make you look terribly tacky, this shade gives off a sophisticated vibe.

While the color payoff is good, it seems to fade rather quickly. It's a bit tricky to use on its own, but works well when combined with other products.

The color is truly beautiful. I love MAC's signature scent - it's almost like chocolate.

It's not extremely matte, but sometimes when my lip condition is at its worst, it can slightly emphasize dead skin cells. However, the color is so incredibly pretty that I can forgive this flaw.

Wow, I was totally obsessed with nude brown shades after binge-watching foreign beauty gurus' makeup videos. After much deliberation, I finally got this love-hate Taupe shade. Looking at it now, I still want to repurchase it. Would you be interested? It's beautiful. No, it's really beautiful. I mean, it's just gorgeous.

Since it's a darker shade, I found it works better when layered with a lip color that has a bit more of a reddish tone, rather than using it alone.

The staying power is quite poor. It doesn't stain the lips at all. I used it without major issues, but it might not be suitable for those who prioritize long-lasting wear.

The color payoff and application are great. It glides on smoothly without being too matte. The color leans towards brown, so it might not suit those who prefer lighter or pinkish lip colors.

This shade is definitely not for everyone. If it doesn't suit you, it really doesn't suit you.

Depending on your skin condition, this product might make you look a bit under the weather. When used alone, it can cause slight irritation (dryness) on the lips. It comes off easily, especially after eating.

Personally, I love the scent of this product. It reminds me of a souvenir I bought in Canada instead of maple syrup!
