Name a makeup brand more iconic than MAC—go ahead, we’ll wait. It’s arguably one of the most omnipresent, heritage brands in the beauty industry, and, if you’re anything like us, is probably one that’s associated with some of your earliest makeup memories. It also always has been (and we’re willing to bet always will be) a staple among professional makeup artists. There’s no shortage of cult classic MAC products to pick from, but their plethora of lipsticks really takes the cake.
“You can’t beat the color range that MAC offers, with over 150 shades of traditional lipsticks plus almost 40 shades of liquid lipstick. There is literally something for everyone,” says celebrity makeup artist Bryan Cantor, who also raves about the high quality of all the formulas. Per the point of the options being super extensive, we went ahead and made things easy for you by narrowing it down to a dozen of the best MAC lipsticks out there.
Below, find the best MAC lipsticks, according to the Byrdie editors.

“This muted, brownish-pink, is ideal for those who don’t want a super bold lip and it works on all skin tones,” says Cantor. (He adds that it’s one of his universal bridal go-tos.) It should come as no surprise that it’s also one of the brand’s best-sellers.

Your hunt for the perfect, classic red lippie ends here. Cantor says it’s truly a perfectly-balanced red, with undertones that are neither too cool nor too warm, again, flattering on all complexions. Fun fact: It consistently ranks as the brand’s number one best-selling lipstick in the U.S., says Cantor.

- Matte finish
- Long-lasting
What We Don’t Like

The matte texture coupled with the super pigmented, nude beige hue screams the ‘90s to us—in the best way possible. It’s also one of those rare beige tones that looks equally as beautiful on fair complexions as it does deeper ones.

What We Like
- Lightweight
- Moisturizing
- Buildable formula
What We Don’t Like
- Not as long-lasting as other options
Byrdie Editor Holly Rhue loves this MAC lipstick formula, which boasts a weightless and moisturizing, yet still matte, texture. Cantor calls out that it’s also one of the brand’s more buildable options, easily layered depending on how pigmented you want the result to be. There are 23 shades to choose from in this variant alone, but we’re partial to this vibrant red-orange, a perfect summer shade that makes a serious statement.

What We Like
- Proceeds donate to a good cause
- Doesn’t appear muddy
- Matte finish
What We Don’t Like
- May not work on all skin tones
One of our all-time favorite fall hues, this is the third iteration of the brand’s Viva Glam line, first launched in 1994 to help men, women, and children affected by HIV/AIDS. In fact, 100% of the proceeds still go to the cause. The tone hits just the right balance of brown and plum, without ever appearing muddy.
Cruelty-Free: No | Byrdie Clean: No
Best Berry: MAC Cremesheen Lipstick in Créme in Your Coffee

What We Like
- Moisturizing
- Comfortable wear
- Glossy finish
What We Don’t Like
- Not as long-lasting as other options
Lip balm devotees will appreciate the uber hydrating texture of MAC’s Cremesheen lippies, made with shea butter and olive oil, says Cantor. The cushiony feel makes them extra comfortable and they have a glossy finish. That sheen looks especially pretty on this gorgeous berry shade, a mid-tone pink with the perfect amount of brown undertones.
Cruelty-Free: No | Byrdie Clean: Yes

What We Like
- Great for everyday wear

What We Don’t Like
- Can be drying
Another one of Cantor’s favorites, he describes this shade as a “neutral, peachy rose color.” Think of it as the perfect everyday color to reach for when you want to give your lips a little something-something, but not necessarily look like you’re wearing a ton of lipstick.

- Great color payoff
- Creamy
- Makes teeth appear whiter
What We Don’t Like
- Reviewers note color doesn’t match the pictures
“The Amplified lipsticks contain finely milled pigments, allowing for three times the pigment payoff of other formulas,” explains Cantor. “They’re full coverage with a creamy texture and semi-lustrous finish.” He’s partial to this vibrant fuchsia, whose blue undertones have the added benefit of making teeth appear whiter, he says.
Cruelty-Free: No | Byrdie Clean: Yes

“This is my go-to color for a vampy lip,” says Cantor. The deep red/burgundy tone, coupled with the matte finish, does indeed make for the perfect pairing when you want to go dark and dramatic, and, yet again, works well on all skin tones.
Cruelty-Free: No | Byrdie Clean: No
Best Pink: MAC Frost Lipstick in Angel

What We Like
- Buildable formula

What We Don’t Like

If you prefer your lipstick to have a touch of sheen, consider the brand’s Frost lipsticks. “They have medium, buildable coverage and a semi-lustrous finish that ranges from pearlized to metallic,” says Cantor. When it comes to pink options, he loves this one, a soft, baby pink with a slightly pearlized finish.

What We Like
- Long-lasting
- Doe-foot applicator
- Matte finish
What We Don’t Like
- Can be drying
For those who want to think outside the standard tube, Cantor suggests checking out the brand’s liquid lipsticks, which have the added benefit of having some of the longest staying power. He’s especially partial to this warm, mid-tone nude. Bonus points for the doe-foot applicator, which makes it easy to outline your lips with the tip, then fill in the color with the flat side.
Cruelty-Free: No | Byrdie Clean: No
Final Verdict
You really can’t go wrong with a MAC lipstick. But if you’re overwhelmed by the sheer array of options there are to choose from, here are a few top contenders. MAC Lipstick in Twig is a universal fail-safe, a wearable nude that flatters all skin tones. Prefer a classic red? Check out MAC Lipstick in Ruby Woo and you’ll quickly see why everyone is obsessed.
What to Look For in a MAC Lipstick
The Formula
Cantor says this is the most important thing to consider when choosing a MAC lipstick (since they all come in such a wide array of shades). They differ when it comes to everything from the finish to the texture to the pigment level. For example, the Matte, Retro Matte, and Liquid options are great for long-lasting, high-impact color that doesn’t require a lot of touch-ups, while the Lustre or Powder Kiss formulas are great for those who want more sheer color for everyday wear.
Color
In the quest for finding your perfect lipstick, shade matters. Mac has a wide array of colors, and pinpointing your undertones will typically steer you in the right direction for choosing the shade of your dreams. Luckily, Mac offers many universally flattering shades such as Ruby Woo (mentioned above). Celebrity MUA Jo Baker says, “every person on the planet must have it if you have the desire for attention in the most flattering form. This classic, true red has slightly blue undertones and brightens up every complexion, from pale redheads with freckles to the darkest of skin tones.”
Beeswax
It’s important to note that many lipsticks today are formulated with beeswax, and may not be vegan-friendly.1 Always check ingredient lists before purchasing a cosmetic product for any personal restrictions.
