Ok, so I may be a little late to the party on this one, but I'm finally here.. Why didn't anyone tell me how convenient liquid lipsticks are!? I recently got a matte liquid lipstick in my Ipsy bag and it's been pretty much all that I've been wearing!!
The one.. And only.. One I have is from The Balm's Meet Matt(e) Hughes Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick and I can't really sing its praises more!!! First off, the shade I have, Committed, is my go to shade. I love the natural rosey shades and this is perfect!
I always start out by lining my lips first. This gives me a bit of a guideline to make sure my lips look even. Then I apply the liquid lipstick. The nice thing about using a liner, it allows you to manipulate the color of the end product a bit.
What do I love about this product ..
1 - The color! It's an easy and every day shade!
2 - Easy to apply!
3 - Quick drying! Plus when it drys, there is no transiting!!
4 - The smell! It's got this chocolate mint smell. It's not overwhelming and is gone as soon as it dries.
5 - Long lasting!! I apply when I leave the house for work in the morning and don't have to apply all day!!
One thing I don't like; the typical cracking and drying out that liquid lipstick does.. Trick for that; apply just enough Chapstick that we moisturizer the lipstick and then it will reset and be like you just applied it!!
Below are two pictures I took with different lip liners to show how you can manipulate the color a bit to match your look!
I am definitely interested in trying out more shades in this line! This color specifically, I think should find a place in everyone's collection!!
