Matte lipsticks so beautiful that they’ll make your swear off shine for the rest of the season!
Why you should go matte
If you’re looking for a lip partner that’s going to stay put and give you an intense colour pay-off, try this. “New formulations mean that matte lipsticks are now more moisturising, making them more comfortable to wear,” says Elizabeth Arden’s senior makeup artist Lucoh Mhlongo.
