I am going to admit something that may sound insane to a lot of beauty lovers. I have never been a huge fan of lipsticks. I typically wear balms maybe a little gloss but never really went gaga over a lipstick. Well, that has all changed. The Milani Color Statement Moisture Matte Lipstick collection just blew my mind. They are pigmented, moisturizing, non-shimmery goodness. There are eight shades and each one is just amazing. Like… AMAZING. I can’t get over it.
There are two additional shades in this post that are from the regular Color Statement line that are new. They aren’t matte and you can spot them in the swatches because there is a shine to them.
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. 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.
I tool a lot of photos of these lipsticks because I just couldn’t quit staring at them. The colors are so vibrant and even the nudes look just… amazing. They are so pretty and pristine like this that I didn’t even want to swatch them. I did. But I didn’t want to.
*le sigh*
So for the swatches. The 4th and 7th swatches are actually of the two shades that are from the regular Color Statement line. The rest are all from the Moisture Matte range. Aren’t they beautiful? What I love about them is that they are all more neutral. Even though some lean warm or cool, there is something about them that are easy to wear.
Swatches L to R: Matte Innocence, Matte Naked, Matte Blissful, Catwalk Pink, Matte Diva, Matte Matte Orchid, Power Pink, Matte Glam, Matte Passion, Matte Confident.
Each of the Milani Color Statement Moisture Matte Lipsticks will retail for $5.99 and you can find them on the brand’s website.
