The most challenging thing about wearing a matte liquid lipstick is dryness. After a few hours, most formulas leave lips feeling like the Sahara. Ciaté London Liquid Velvet Moisturizing Matte Liquid Lipstick, $19, contains hyaluronic acid to keep lips feeling dewy while still looking matte. Check out the Deep Teal shade for a fun, edgy look Kylie would love.

If even the most moisturizing matte lipstick is too drying for you, this semi-matte version might be your best option. Buxom Wildly Whipped Lightweight Liquid Lipstick, $21, is whipped so it feels soft and creamy when you apply, and it doesn't dry and tighten up like so many other formulas. Instead, it feels like a thick balm while still giving you a matte effect.

The pretty colors of Tarte Tarteist Lip Paint, $20, are derived from natural mineral pigments. This formula feels especially silky when you apply it, but it turns matte after a few seconds. And the shade names like TBT and Bae are sure to appeal to the millennial in all of us.

Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick, $20, comes in a zillion (28) colors ranging from full-on black (Witches) to navy (Echo) to neon pink (Backstage Bambi). And the only thing more remarkable than the range of shades is just how long this matte liquid lipstick lasts -- we're talking 24-hour wear. Plus, it's vegan and cruelty free.

Matte shimmer may sound like a contradiction, but somehow it's possible with Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick, $24. There are both shimmer and shimmer-free colors available, but even the shimmery versions dry down to a nice satin finish. Thanks to avocado oil, this lipstick feels comfortable all day.
