Is the Juicy Lip Look Over? 5 Matte Lip Trends Making a Comeback
Over the past few years, lip makeup trends have been led by juicy lips and glossy lips. Now, a shift is being noticed in the trend that once emphasized the lips with clear shine and a hydrated texture. Recently, matte lips with a soft texture and refined mood are coming back into the spotlight in place of excessive gloss.
If matte lips of the past focused on vivid color payoff and a bold impression, today’s matte lips have evolved in a softer and more sophisticated way. From muted brown and blurred pink to natural lip contouring, here are five of the trendiest matte lip makeup formulas right now.
1. The Era of Desaturated Brown
The most on-trend matte lip color right now is undoubtedly brown. While brown lips in the past gave a strong and mature impression, today’s trend is all about low-saturation rose brown and mauve brown. A soft matte texture like velvet makes these muted shades stand out even more beautifully. By matching not only the lips but also the cheeks and eye makeup in the same tone, you can complete a more sophisticated and atmospheric look.
2. Make Pink More Subtle with a Matte Texture
On a matte texture, the charm of soft muted pink becomes even more noticeable. Pink shades with less fluorescent brightness and redness adhere naturally to the lips, creating a clean and natural impression. Because the natural lip color appears to show through subtly, it creates a pure mood without looking overdone. It pairs especially well with blonde or beige-toned hair and helps refine the overall look into a softer and more sophisticated atmosphere.
3. Sharper and Fuller
Over lips look even more defined when created with a matte texture. The key is to use a lip pencil that is one shade darker than your lip color. After extending the lip line as much as desired, lightly smudge the inner area with a cotton swab or your finger to create a natural over-lip look. If you want more dimensional lips, try lip contouring. By adding a slightly deeper color to the Cupid’s bow and the center of the lower lip to create shading, you can achieve more defined lips.
4. Subtly Glowing Satin Lips
If matte lips feel intimidating because of flaky or dry lips, start with satin lips. They adhere lightly like matte lips while leaving a subtle sheen, making them easier to wear naturally. They add vitality without overly emphasizing lip texture, making them a great option for beginners trying matte-inspired lip looks. In particular, colors close to the natural lip shade, such as rose beige, mauve pink, and rose brown, blend beautifully with the soft texture unique to satin and complete an even more refined mood.
5. The Final Touch for Matte Lip Makeup
If you want to highlight the mood of matte lips, the textures of your cheeks and base should match as well. For blush, muted pink, mauve, and brown shades similar to the lip tone are recommended, and powder formulas are preferred over liquid formulas. This is because they naturally continue the soft and calm mood unique to matte lips. For the base, a matte or semi-matte foundation that neatly refines the skin texture works especially well. Unifying the tone and texture of the lips, cheeks, and base is the key to sophisticated matte lip makeup.
Matte lip makeup, which reduces shine and maximizes the appeal of texture, has once again taken center stage in beauty trends. Harmoniously matching the tones and textures of lip color, cheeks, and base is the secret to completing a sophisticated look this season.
