Lipsticks – they’re an essential in any girl’s go-to makeup kit. The power of lipstick should never, ever be underestimated. It can liven up your face incase you decide to do the #nomakeupselfie. It can amp up your outfit for those days you literally want to step out in your pjs. And it’ll be your best friend – Makeup junkies, I’m talking to you 😉

Now, L’Oreal Paris always has my back when it comes to getting out some uber cool shades and hues that not only suit every desi girl out there but also makes sure that their mat lipsticks never dry out the lips. Take a peek at their collection:

Particularly for me, transitioning from summer to autumn/winter isn’t only about my outfit. My lipstick preference changes too. While their peachy-pink Delicate Rose shade will always be near and dear to me, my mind is closing in on their Arabian Night shade which makes for a perfect pout!

And here’s how our boss lady and Team MissMalini wore them:

Shade, Pure Garnet:

Shade, Pure Amaranthe:

Shade, Orange Power:

Shade, Glamour Fuchsia:

So, if you guys are bitten by the mat lipstick bug, you know what you have to do 🙂

Also, here’s a quick tip:

Since these lipsticks are already quite hydrating and super blendable, you can create an beautiful ombre using one light shade (incase you’re not ready to go darker) and one dark!
