Long-Wearing Lip Powders Are the Newest Way to Matte Your LipsWho knew a pretty, powdered pout could be so satisfying? |
I love a good lip. In fact, if I had to pick one favorite makeup product, in a close tie with CC cream, I'd always pick a pretty pout. It wasn't until I was 22 years old that I really learned the magic of a lined and filled lip but, once I did, there was never any going back. What started as an absolute obsession with the post-breakup confidence that Too Faced's Melted Matte Lipstick in Melted Fuschia brought me, quickly turned into an all-out need to try any and every lip product. For years that meant mixing up my daily shades and textures, constantly going between traditional sticks and longer-lasting liquids. But then, I discovered lip powders.
If the thought of applying lip powder on chapped-prone lips sounds like a visual disaster waiting to happen, fear not. The powder melts into your lips for an ultra-lightweight, matte stain. It won't flake and last for hours. And if you do prefer a more hydrated feel, lip powders play well with lip balm and gloss.
Whether you're searching for a barely-there nude or a bold red, here are seven of the best lip powders to add to your collection. Pretty soon, you'll be just as obsessed as I am.
