I will gladly hold my hands up and proclaim my love for matte lipsticks. They are just so easy, so bright and my favourite to wear. I am aware that lots of people fear the power of a matte pout, which led me to think about the opposite of matte... which is glossy. Like photo paper, as I explained to my Dad. The lipsticks shown are Ruby woo (matte!) and Lady Bug (sheer!)
Pros of Matte
- Bold, saturated colour
- Long-lasting - depending on the lipstick in question, we're talking surviving through meals
- Decreased fear of the dreaded lipstick on teeth syndrome
- Quick and easy - can make you look 'done' in 2 seconds with minimal other makeup
Pros of Sheer
- Very easy to slick on, maybe even sans mirror depending on the lipsticks
- Comfortable to wear/non-drying
- Harder to look overdone, and goes with a lot of looks
- Less obvious when it fades
I'd love to know - which do you prefer? :)
