KIKO Milano Velvet Passion Matte Lipstick - 332

The Velvet Passion Matte Lipstick is designed to provide an intense matte finish. While the texture is creamy upon application, it dries down to a comfortable matte.

Wear time can vary depending on eating and drinking habits, but it is formulated for long-lasting wear. For best results, avoid oily foods that can break down the matte finish.

Yes, this lipstick is dermatologically tested, making it suitable for most users, including those with sensitive lips.

Use an oil-based makeup remover or a micellar water designed for long-wear or waterproof makeup for effective and gentle removal.

The creamy texture can potentially feather if not applied carefully or if lips are not properly prepped. Using a lip liner can help prevent this.

This line includes a variety of shades, such as Black, Purple, Pink, Brown, and Red, among others.

Ensure lips are exfoliated and moisturized. Apply a thin layer of lip balm, blot thoroughly, and then apply the lipstick. For a more even application, use a lip brush and build the color in thin layers.

Apply a very thin layer of hydrating lip balm *before* lipstick and blot well. Alternatively, apply a small amount of clear lip gloss in the center of the lips *after* application to add moisture without sacrificing too much of the matte effect.

Apply a second thin layer of lipstick. Ensure lips are not overly dry, as this can affect color payoff. Consider using a lip liner in a similar shade to prime the lips.
