I sometimes do not anticipate essentially the most hydrating components from a matte lipstick, however I do not need it to suck each drop of moisture from my lips. Fortunately, the XXL lipstick feels snug — at occasions I forgot it was there — and it wears fairly effectively all through the day. It lasted by way of numerous drinks and the previous few bites of a pizza slice. Should you’re nervous about any potential dryness, you possibly can apply lip balm beforehand, which is what I did, or exfoliate and use a hydrating lip therapy, as New York Metropolis-based make-up artist Tommy recommends. 

Even when you do not have a lip exfoliator, he says you possibly can attain in your toothbrush, however ensure that it is dry. It will not be as harsh as a scrub, however it is going to get the job completed. Whenever you’re completed exfoliating, apply a lip balm or one other moisturizing therapy, however do not instantly swipe in your liquid lipstick afterward. 

“Lips may be moisturized however should not be oily or slick for matte liquid lipsticks,” Tommy explains. “I at all times give my balm time to ‘soak’ whereas engaged on different options, then I blot off extra moisture with a tissue earlier than making use of.”

Whenever you’re prepared to color your lips, he says to start out on the middle then work your strategy to the corners. I utilized a lip pencil beforehand, however Tommy recommends doing it afterward, giving the colour a minute to take a seat first. “Pencil comes second on this case as a result of, like overly-moisturized lips, we do not need the pencil to compromise the components’s dry-down and longevity,” he shares. Additionally should you’re a fan of gloss, let the lipstick dry fully earlier than including that layer.

Although I cherished the shade Deep Mesh, just a few others caught my eye. I really like combining Low-Lower (darkish gingerbread) with Flip-On (caramel) positioned within the middle of my lips. The brighter colours additionally put on superbly. Each Stayin Juicy (fuchsia) and Pink Hit (scorching pink) gave me the right Nicki Minaj-approved rosy hue to fulfill my internal Barb. 

That stated, Stamina may simply change into my new favourite crimson lipstick as a result of — OMG it is simply so beautiful. It is obtained the right blue undertone. Commerce author Angela Trakoshis examined out the crimson hue and enjoys its “fluffy, mousse-like” components. “The Lip Lingerie XXL Matte Liquid Lipstick’s components is near excellent, if not is,” she shares. “It is a long-lasting matte that does not dry out your lips.”

These lipsticks are it for me. I discovered a number of shades that I actually like, a matte components that feels snug on the lips, and every shade’s obtained an intense pigment. The lipsticks even have a slight vanilla scent that is beautiful however not too overpowering.
