According to M.A.C, Velvet Teddy is a deep-tone beige. (I think this is one of MAC's few accurate lipstick color descriptions. Ha.) It is a neutral, deep beige so it's neither too warm nor too cool.
Although the finish is matte, it is non-drying. Just make sure to exfoliate the lips prior to application so it doesn't highlight cracks and flakies. And as expected of matte lipsticks, it is long-wearing.

Velvet Teddy is a universally flattering shade. Fair ladies can get away with just this lipstick for a subtle or classic look and it won't make them look pale or ghostly. Medium or olive-skinned women may wear this with a smokey eye makeup and it can be very sexy. This can also be a great nude for those with deeper skin tones!
This is a versatile color that's perfect for any day or event. It is such a classic and elegant shade -- which is why I chose to wear it on my very special day, our wedding. I think it suited the occasion really well! Simple yet classy.
M.A.C Velvet Teddy will forever hold a special place in my heart.
