[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] If you’re curious about whether MAC lipsticks have their logo embossed, it’s a recent addition with the new MAC MACximal Silky Matte Lipsticks. Unlike traditional mattes, these lipsticks have a satin finish, which is a welcome change for those who prefer a smoother look over a matte finish.
The MAC MACximal Silky Matte Lipstick range includes 40 core shades and 4 Viva Glam shades, which are a mix of original and new shades. While MAC enthusiasts might easily spot the new additions, the standout shade, Ruby Woo, shines in this updated formula.
Shades from bottom to top: Keep Dreaming, Go Retro, Viva Planet (Viva Glam), Overstatement, and Ruby Woo.

And the classic Ruby Woo. To maintain lip hydration, a lip balm was applied underneath these lipsticks for the shine seen in the images.The actual finish is more realistic as shown in the swatch, the photos are primarily for color representation. Each lipstick costs £25 (previously £18). Find the swatches on the MAC website, categorized by shade and showcased on various skin tones. Additionally, an interactive lipstick icon is visible as you hover over the shades, adding a playful touch to the product presentation.
