Milani Matte Flirty Color Statement Moisture Matte Lipstick Review

Hello all,

Milani Color Statement lipsticks are not new and have been around for a while and a few shades have been already reviewed on IMBB ( “Darling”, “Passion” , “Iconic” etc). I recently picked up a few more shades from this range. And today I am reviewing the shade “Matte Flirty” for you. Read on to find out more about this shade.

Product Description:
Meet your matte. Your fantasy matte. The matte that not only feels great (yes, you read that right – it’s actually comfy) but also lasts for hours and has “a-mazing Instagram selfie” written all over it. Infused with grape seed extract imported from Italy, this smear-proof lip soother delivers mega color that won’t budge, even after a close encounter with a cappuccino cup.

My Experience with Milani Matte Flirty Color Statement Moisture Matte Lipstick:

Packaging: This lipstick comes in a beautiful gold packaging with a band at the bottom matching the color of the lipstick. The cap shuts tight and there is no danger of the cap coming off loose even if you toss it around in your bag. The packaging is pretty simple. But it looks classy and does not look like a 6 dollars lipstick at all.

Shade: “Matte Flirty” is a deep reddish-purple-berry shade. It is a shade which screams fall and looks gorgeous. I find it a little too dark for every day office wear but it is a lovely shade nevertheless. Also, it is a shade which will look good on all skin tones.
Lipstick packaging

The pigmentation of the lipstick is quite decent. One swipe is enough to deposit enough color on the lips. I would recommend two swipes for a more even finish. Multiple swipes do not make the application patchy.

Texture/Finish/Pigmentation:  Even though this is a matte lipstick, the texture is quite creamy. The lipstick glides effortlessly on the lips and there is no tugging at all.  The finish of the lipstick is matte, but it has a slight sheen which prevents it from looking flat.
Swatch on hands

The lipstick does not feel particularly drying, but it is not moisturizing either. It does cling on to dry patches and hence exfoliation of lips prior to application is strongly recommended.

The matte formula makes the lipstick stay long – it stays on for around 5-6 hours with light meals. The lipstick fades evenly and this particular shade leaves a light stain behind.
Lip swatches

This lipstick has a mild vanilla smell which I find quite pleasant. It does not stay for too long and hence should not be a matter of concern to sensitive noses.
