MAC Macximal Silky Matte Lipstick - Red

A 'silky matte' finish indicates that while the lipstick provides a non-glossy, matte look, it is formulated to feel smooth and comfortable on the lips, avoiding the dryness often associated with traditional matte lipsticks.

For optimal results, gently exfoliate your lips to create a smooth canvas. Then, apply a thin layer of hydrating lip balm and blot off any excess with a tissue before applying the lipstick.

Matte lipsticks can sometimes feel drying. Prioritize lip care by regularly using a hydrating lip balm, especially before applying the lipstick. Blot off the balm before applying the Viva Heart lipstick.

To prevent feathering, always use a lip liner that matches or is close to the lipstick shade. Apply the liner around your natural lip line before applying the lipstick. You can also lightly powder around the lip line with translucent powder.
