The lipstick has great colour pay off, the formula is matte but not drying and it lasts all day without the need for a touch up. The colour is so opaque that you only need one layer of it. It glides on very smoothly. Even though the colour is so beautiful and vampy, just perfect for fall, I actually have a hard time wearing it around my family. When I attend family events I try to avoid this lipstick. Only because the colour is so deep that my family thinks its scary (LOL). I think they think its too "loud" because they are just so used to the typical red and pink lipsticks. 

Dupe

The perfect dupe for this lipstick is Colourpop's Limbo. On some people Limbo looks much more brown. I also think LAX by Colourpop also looks very similar to Antique Velvet. The Colourpop Cosmetics lipsticks retail for about $6.00, with shipping they end up being around $10.00 each. Which is half of what you would pay for Antique Velvet. I love MAC Lipsticks, but if you can get a cheaper option to get the same product then why not?
