The Anastasia Beverly Hills Matte Lipstick in Royal Red is designed for anyone seeking a bold, highly pigmented matte lip color that makes a statement. Its creamy texture ensures comfortable wear despite a rich matte finish, perfect for enhancing any makeup look from day to night.

The Anastasia Beverly Hills Matte Lipstick in Royal Red delivers a commanding presence with its rich, high-pigment formula. Upon application, you'll notice its creamy texture allows for a smooth glide, contrasting with some traditional matte lipsticks that can feel dry or drag. The matte finish is sophisticated, making it ideal for creating a focal point in your makeup. For optimal performance, ensure your lips are prepped and smooth. The long-lasting characteristic means it will endure meals and drinks with minimal fading, maintaining its vibrant color throughout your day or evening. The Royal Red shade is particularly effective for making a bold statement, perfect for an evening out or a professional look where you want to exude confidence. Its ability to make lips look fuller and healthier contributes to a polished overall appearance.
Preparation: For the best matte finish, gently exfoliate your lips to remove any dry skin. Follow with a light, non-greasy lip balm and allow it to absorb fully, blotting off any excess, a few minutes before lipstick application.
Application:
Start by outlining your lips with a matching red lip liner to define the shape and prevent feathering.
Begin applying the lipstick from the center of your upper lip, working outwards towards the corners.
Repeat the process for your lower lip, applying from the center outwards using gentle, even strokes.
For an extra sharp edge, use a small flat brush with a tiny amount of concealer around the lip line after application.
Care:
Store the lipstick in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain its creamy texture and prevent melting.
Keep the cap securely closed to prevent the product from drying out.
