A matte lip is a go to for me. I’m not a huge fan of glossy lips simply because my face is already an oil slick.  However, a matte lip can be tricky sometimes.  For me, achieving that even application is dependent on how moisturized and smooth your lips are.

One must prepare the lips properly before applying a matte lipstick because this could leave your lips looking a dry crumbling mess.  Don’t panic just yet, we’ve got you. The key to achieving baby soft lips is to exfoliate. I usually mix a little sugar with olive oil or honey and gentle apply to the lips in a circular motion.  You can also use a soft tooth brush or wash cloth in the same way to get rid of the dead skin on your lips.  Also, a recent discovery of mine is the Elf exfoliating stick; it is just like a lipstick.

Here is a tutorial demonstrating how you can achieve baby soft lips for the perfect matte lipstick..
