Try a vibrant shade of red for a sophisticated, evening look and a pretty pink lip for daytime. Matte lips can be a harder look to achieve than the usual satin and shine finish lip colours, in which Bobby Brown advises: using a creamy texture lipstick will make colour last longer without drying out lips. Bobby Brown has developed a Dreamy Matte Lip Color in 12 different shades, available for \u252c\u00fa14. For those not wanting to break the bank, but explore The Matte Mouth, a particular favourite of mine is Revlonsmatte lipstick collection, \u252c\u00fa7.49 from Boots.<\/p>\n<p>Matte lipstick can look striking against a flawless bare complexion, although if this feels too bold, add colours to contrast your matte lips with a rosy blusher for dewy cheeks, and soft eye shadow shades in browns or smokey pinks for shimmery eyes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beauty tip<\/strong>: To avoid cracks and dryness, prepare your lips well by applying plenty of lip balm, then leave for a few minutes before buffing with a toothbrush or damp flannel to remove dead skin.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2012\/10\/Revlon1.jpeg\"><img
