I remember Cyber being matte in the early 2000's. Maybe they changed the formula. At least I think it was. I don't remember it being creamy or shiny.

^Leeny, Try Lip Erase to diminish the pigmentation of your lips before applying lippie. This may help.
I think a bit of concealer over lips may work too.
Thanks Fiberluver, you reminded me that I have a Lip Erase somewhere in my stash that I need to dig out and try, no idea why I got it and never used it.

I always find that concealer sucks the moisture out of my lips and I dislike the way lipstick sits on it. I tend to put a generous layer of balm on before I start putting on makeup and then blot away some before I apply lipstick or gloss. I feel like trying to get concealer to stay put on top of balm would be a challenge. Time to experiment!

Ugh why'd they have to go and change it!?

I'm not 100% sure if the actual finish was called a matte but I just don't remember it being creamy or shiny. I thought it was rather stiff and I couldn't get it to work for me back then. Not to mention I don't think I knew how to wear those types of colors then. I returned it.

Do you have Smoked Purple? If you like matte, you might like Smoked Purple.

Oh, yeah! I am so on Team Purple...


I have all three. Belladonna Lip Tar is great, i was so sorry to hear it's discontinued. I think Illamasqua Kontrol will look good on you, it's very blue violet and it is matte, it should bring out your eyes. And, of course, MAC Cyber is a classic.
Thanks! Kontrol looks like a true blue purple, really awesome

I got two Belladonna's just in case. If I decide I don't need the BU I already know someone that wants it, so it isn't going to waste. I'm still not sure about Cyber. Maybe I would like Smoked Purple better because it's a matte?

I have Cyber (2000 version) and its a satin. But, it may as well be an old style matte because it is a bitch to apply. Really uneven and drying. I was going to B2M it until I discovered Prep And Prime. Now I love it, but it does lean into goth territory on my uber pale skin.

Is there any ladies with tan or darker skin that can post their pics of the MAC Mattenes? I think I want to purchase them all but... I don't know what they'd look like. Thanks in advance.
