  • (#5) Use A Lip Liner Before Applying Your Lipstick

    Since matte lipstick has a tendency to bleed and smear past the lip line, it's important to apply a lip liner first. This will serve as a barrier between your skin and the lip color, and also give you guidance as you apply the final coat of color.

  • (#4) If You Need To Touch Up, Start From Scratch

     

    Matte lipsticks are wonderful, but they're not magic. No matter how good your formula is, it will likely fade throughout the day, or at the very least wear off in the middle of your lips after eating and drinking. When that happens, you'll get the urge to reapply – but be warned, if you reapply on top of the first coat, you're asking for a dry, flaky mess. Instead, remove all the leftover lipstick and start from scratch. This will ensure a smooth, even application with no crumbles in sight.

  • (#6) Find A Color That Flatters Your Skin Tone

    You should always reach for lipsticks in shades that flatter your skin tone and undertones, but that's especially true of matte lipsticks. If your shade is all wrong, it will make any flakiness or crumbling even more noticeable.

    Identify your skin tone (porcelain, ivory, tan, caramel, mocha, etc.) and your undertone (cool, neutral, or warm) before selecting a matte lipstick color. Generally, lipsticks with blue undertones look best on cool skin; lipsticks with orange undertones look best on warm skin. 

  • (#9) Invest In A Lipstick Brush

     

    The applicator wand that comes in your matte liquid lipstick might be more trouble than it's worth, especially if you're using a drugstore formula. Lip brushes offer a level of precision and control that most applicators don't. The result is smooth, even application – and when your lipstick is applied evenly, there's less chance of it flaking, bleeding, or crumbling. Ditch your applicator wand for a high-end lip brush and watch your matte lipstick thrive.

  • (#1) Exfoliate Your Lips

     

    If your matte lipstick has a tendency to look cakey, then dead skin may be the culprit. Exfoliating your lips is key for sloughing off rough cells and creating a smooth surface for your matte lipstick to stick to. You can use a DIY sugar scrub or a soft-bristle toothbrush to do this, or reach for a product like this stick from e.l.f. Cosmetics.

  • (#2) Apply The Rest Of Your Makeup First

     

    If you're following a full lip care routine – including exfoliating, moisturizing, and priming – your lips could use a break. To give all those formulas time to sink in and do their jobs, finish the rest of your makeup before applying lip color.

    As you apply your foundation and brush on your blush, your lips will dry into the perfect, plump canvas for your matte lipstick. Plus, having foundation or powder around your lips will help keep your lip color from bleeding.
