I avoided lipsticks for the longest time because i didnt like the sticky glossy feeling on my lips. At the same time, i didnt like that i looked pale when i dont wear lipstick. (but i still used it for vain reasons and brushed off the sticky feeling) Thats when i turned to matte lipsticks. i love bold lip colours and bold colours look best in matte. (to me at least) AND it doesnt have that sticky feeling on the lips.
Picked up NYX matte lipstick in merlot and natural. Merlot is by far, one of my favourite shades of red lipstick. Its not exactly red, somewhere pinkish wine. Natural is what i describe as your lip colour but better.
These babies can last for quite some time. i put Merlot on after breakfast and went out for a full day of shopping with my mom, sister and bro-in-law. After lunch, i realized the colour faded a little, i touched up. It lasted until i got home for tea. The colour glides on smoothly and its very pigmented.

Sucky thing is, it does emphasize dry lips, so you may want to put on balm before putting them on.
