“What it is:
Meet your matte. Your fantasy matte. The matte that not only feels great (yes, you read that right – it’s actually comfy) but also lasts for hours and has “a-mazing Instagram selfie” written all over it.
What it does:
Infused with grape seed extract imported from Italy, this smear-proof lip soother delivers mega color that won’t budge, even after a close encounter with a cappuccino cup. In eight luxe, go-the-distance shades, from the oh-so-sweet, pale pink Matte Innocence to the va va voom, fiery-red Matte Passion. This matte? So major.
Why I love it:
I usually find that with nude lipsticks, especially matte formulas, they settle into the fine lines and wrinkles of the lips, making for a not-so-flattering look. This is not the case with Milani 61 Matte Naked. It goes on feeling rather creamy, and settles to a stunning matte finish. At first, it seemed just a plain, beige nude. However, once photographed, I noticed that it appears more of a pinky-nude on my skin tone, which was a nice surprise since I like color. While it was still a drastic change from my normal bold lip colors, I found it pretty flattering and grew to love it over the week I tried it out. I disagree slightly with the claim that this lip product is budge-proof. That being said, it does still have decent wearability and to be honest, I’m usually willing to put up with a few reapplications if I love the color!
