I wouldn’t call myself a makeup guru, but I would call myself a near expert at searching and finding the best vegan products! I love a good lip color, but I can’t stand when it’s sticky, smudges, gets on my teeth, or comes off super quick. Most importantly though, I need to be able to kiss my husband without it rubbing off and getting all over him! Long-lasting and matte lip color is where it’s at! I generally stick to more nude colors for my lips, but occasionally I like a moodier brown or crimson!
KVD BEAUTY
Okay, these have been my absolute favorite! They go on matte and stay on through lots of eating and drinking. I might have to touch up just once throughout the day for a more consistent finish. I could not recommend these enough! I have shades Ludwig (pictured above), Hawkind, Lolita, & Bow N Arrow.
KYLIE COSMETICS
I’m not a big Kardashian/Jenner fan, but I have to give props where it’s due. The Kylie Matte Liquid Lipstick is awesome. I find them to have long-lasting wear with minimal reapplication, however, my darker red shade smudges easier than my nude/pink colors — not sure why that is. Their stock online is super limited right now, but the brand is planning on launching brand new products in Fall 2021!
Because I only do my makeup a couple of times a week, I don’t go through it that quickly. I don’t like buying in excess, so I generally just replace what I run out of and maybe a little more. Below are a few kinds that I have yet to try but are on the list!
