It doesn't matter if you're new to makeup or have been playing with eyeshadow since high school – lipstick will always be the star of your routine. So why don't we start with which shade complements your personality? It's time to pick the perfect lipstick formula, matte or satin; take your time and choose what suits you! From soft nudes to bright pinks and statement-making reds, there's a bedazzling shade for everyone.
Here's a quick primer on the various lipstick formulas available. Choosing the right lipstick makeup means knowing what it is.
You can make your lipstick game strong by choosing one of these types of lipsticks:
Matte Lipstick
You can't go wrong with killer matte lipstick if you want an eye-catching pout. Even though this formulation dries out somewhat, it has a velvety texture and a matte finish. The excellent color payoff makes them ideal for pigmented lips.
Lip Crème
Whenever you think of care, think of crème. Because lip crèmes are primarily wax-based and have a higher oil content than their competitors, they are super moisturizing. It's easy to blend mattes and glosses with cream formulations, making them perfect for everyday wear.
Lip Crayon
Multitasking is what these chubby sticks do best. You can line your lips, fill them in, or layer them with a gloss - this beauty excels at every aspect of lipstick makeup. Moreover, it provides ease of application, making it ideal for women constantly on the go.
Lip Gloss
Next, choose a nude pinky brown shade to add subtle dimension or a high-octane fuchsia for the statement lip. Your choice! Remember, the combination of well-prepped lips and the right intensity takes your game up by many notches. Lather on generous amounts of lip balm prior to applying glosses to keep them looking smooth.
Lip Stain
It's great for all skin types, easy to apply, and can be touched up quickly. It won't cause any irritation or clog your pores like powdered blush might. For better results, using a blending brush or sponge is best. That way, you will get an evenly distributed color that looks naturally blended with the rest of your makeup.
Lip Liner
An all-in-one package! Originally lip liners were meant to define your pout and keep bold colors from bleeding, but slim sticks have come a long way. They're used by new-age makeup lovers to line and then fill their lips.
Liquid Lipstick
Magic wands, oh my! After application, these become matte or semi-matte and last literally days. There is no doubt that these matte wonders are currently atop the lipstick chartbusters.
