Let’s Just Get to the Point:
Velvet Matte Sheer ($14), the latest launch from Victoria’s Secret, finally does the impossible and combines the nourishing factor of a balm, the stay-put power of a matte lip paint and the sex-pot vibe only a lip stain gives off—and won’t break the bank.
If You Want to Know More:
Welcome to the latest—and most permanent—addition to your day-to-night makeup bag. Available in five shades ranging from an everyday rose-nude to a firey red-meets-coral, every stroke of the creamy, lightweight formula leaves behind a watercolor, just-kissed effect without a need to blot. If your lips are notoriously chapped, the pigment is unfused with shea and cupuaçu butters to smooth and hydrate dry patches and makes lips look pillow-soft in seconds.
