Who Said Lipsticks Are Cancelled? These Matte Lipsticks Will Stay Put Under Any Face Mask

 

 

Ever since quarantine began, eye makeup has taken centre stage and we’re not talking about just a simple cat-eye. Bold, out-of-this-world eye makeup looks are dominating our social media feed, pushing lipsticks completely out of the picture. If you are a beauty enthusiast, then you’ve probably heard that lipsticks are no longer a trending topic since face masks have now become a necessity.

But whoever said lipsticks are cancelled in 2020, is definitely wrong. We’re here to tell you that lipsticks are still in and your pouts don’t need to go bare in the pandemic world.

While creamy lipsticks have to sit this one out, matte formulas are now having their big moment. Unfortunately, matte lipsticks have got a bad rep in the past for drying out and damaging lips. Because of this, many are apprehensive of using them. But here’s the thing, it’s 2020 and there are plenty of brands that add nourishing ingredients to their products, so it’s time to invest in a few matte lipsticks if you want to look and feel your best, even if it’s just for yourself.

Matte Made In Heaven

 

Aside from longevity, many matte lipsticks available in the market are enriched with moisturising oils that are comfortable on the lips and keep them hydrated. To make your life a bit easier, we’ve scoured the Internet and picked the must-have matte lipstick shades. 

Until now, we’ve been searching for mattes that stay put after every drink, meal and kiss, but now you can add a face mask to this equation. Check out these lipsticks that won’t dry out the lips and are mask-proof.

This long-lasting lipstick is enriched with moringa oil that moisturises and smoothens dry lips. It’s also highly pigmented so whether you choose to wear by itself or create a gradient effect, this hue won’t smudge and is sure to get everyone’s attention once the mask is off.
