One of the current year’s most blazing trends is

matte lipstick. We’ve seen it on celebrity lane and

now is an ideal opportunity to try it for yourself.

Matte lipstick functions as both a day and a night

look.

It’s a dryer lipstick that is intended to keep focused lips for the duration of the day. You can

explore different avenues regarding diverse hues

without it being overwhelming. Matte lipstick

arrives in a wide assortment of spring shades like

hot pink, orange and red. These have an editorial,

high fashion look to it. It’s kind of like lip gloss’s

elder, more sophisticated sister.

It lends your ensemble "a straight from the runway" vibe without spending a fortune on designer threads. If you want a statement lip in a bold hue,

matte is the perfect option. Its velvety finish makes color look extra saturated and intense.

And since matte lipstick makes for a focal point on the face, you don’t need

much else in the way of makeup. Let your statement lip do all the talking. If your lipstick isn’t

kiss-proof, then it’s not doing its job. Lipsticks with a shiny finish can smudge and fade, but

matte formulas are known for their staying power. And that means fewer touch ups, even after lunch.

Matte lipstick isn’t a seasonal trend. A deep mulberry lip looks fabulous in the winter while an electric pink matte lip looks gorgeous in the summer. Matte lipstick is especially great in the hotter months, as it won’t melt or get gloopy in the heat, like lip gloss can.

High gloss lipsticks with a waxy finish feather more easily than other formulas.

Matte lipsticks, on the other hand, are heavily pigmented and tend to stay on your lips, right where

you want them. You can wear matte lipstick on the windiest day and you won’t have any stray hair

sticking to your lips.We like our cinnamon buns sticky, but not our lips.That’s why we love a matte

finish so very much.There’s nothing gloopy, icky or sticky about it.
