Whoever said diamonds are a girl’s best friends, didn’t know about lipsticks ;) Who doesn’t love to pucker up with beautiful colors and grab eye balls? When we enter the world of lipsticks, there are a million types out there – glossy, long wear, matte and what not! But I have always been a fan of matte lipsticks. I mean, they are perfect for office and college wear. They are subtle yet effective and are not in-your-face. Also, matte lipsticks are relatively long wear and do not smudge as easily as glossy ones do. Also, they are less transferrable ;)

This, by far, is the best matte lipstick ever. It’s a super gorgeous shade with pink and coral undertones. The color is very buildable and you can control the intensity. Easily available in all MAC outlets, this MAC matte lipstick tops my wish list ;)

Another pretty product from Lakme, this lipcolor is a winner. This color can be worn for college and office without any fear of inappropriateness ;) Peach Carnation is a misnomer, though. The Lakme matte lipstick color is more of a pinkish brown and leans more towards nude.

This, my friend, is the holy union of lipstick and cream and matte finish. A wonderful fuchsia pretty pink in a wet stage, it transforms to matte finish on lips and gives an incredible staying power. The only complaint is that it settles into fine lines after 3 hours, but that is so okay with the pretty color right? ;)

This is a nude-brown lipstick which is super matte and a little drying. Apply some lip balm beneath to avoid the dryness because this lipstick is absolutely amazing with its staying power and color pay off.
