Huda Beauty Liquid Matte Lipstick - Miss America - Red

This liquid matte lipstick provides maximum color payoff and comfortable wear for up to 8 hours.

Yes, once fully dried, the formula is designed to be transfer-proof, smudge-proof, and mask-proof, meaning it won't easily come off on clothes, skin, or face masks.

No, it features a non-drying formula infused with moisturizing ingredients to keep lips feeling supple and comfortable, which is a common concern with many matte lipsticks.

Yes, you can apply a very thin layer of a non-oily lip balm beforehand. Allow it to absorb fully or blot off any excess to ensure the liquid matte sets properly for its transfer-proof finish.

For best results and to avoid irritation, remove the lipstick using an oil-based makeup remover, micellar water, or a cleansing balm. Apply it to a cotton pad, gently press onto your lips for a few seconds, then wipe away.

Yes, this upgraded formula is vegan-friendly.

Ensure lips are clean and smooth. Exfoliate gently before application. Apply a thin, even layer, starting from the center and working outwards. Avoid applying too much product at once.

Though the formula is non-drying, proper lip prep is key. Always apply a light, non-oily lip balm before the lipstick and allow it to absorb. Ensure you remove the lipstick gently at the end of the day and moisturize lips overnight.

The most common reason for this is not allowing the lipstick enough time to fully dry. After application, keep lips still and apart for at least 30-60 seconds. Avoid pressing lips together immediately after applying. Ensure only a thin layer is applied; excess product can prevent proper setting.

This lipstick is designed for maximum color payoff. Ensure your lips are a neutral canvas (no prior product that could dilute color). Apply in one even swipe, allowing the pigment to fully develop as it dries.
