Packaging
The packaging of the Balm’s liquid lipsticks are sooo cute! I love the cardboard container that holds the lipstick, it’s done up like a newspaper with a dễ thương black and white photo of a guy (matte hughes?) và girl sharing a milkshake with the caption “Bright, smooth talker seeking: Girl with a great smile.” Adorbs!
The lipstick itself has the same cute photo with the Balm’s hình ảnh below it on the tube & features a doe foot applicator.
The SMELL is divine! My husband và I both agreed that it smells like Flor de Cana, which is a vanilla spiced rum. I could smell it all day!
Application
I had a slight issue applying this lipstick. Normally when I apply a liquid lipstick I will apply it on my bottom lip, then rub my lips together before touching up the cupids bow. I donot recommend rubbing your lips togetherbefore the lipstick is dry. For some reason it pushed all of the pigment to the outer edges of my lips leaving the centre bare.
I have to do the full instagram swatch thing where I swipe the lipstick across the bottom & top lip separately. It’s not a big deal, just something I have to get used to since my usual way of applying lipstick doesn’t work.
You need to lớn let this lipstick sit on the lips for a minute or two to let it dry. It’s tacky at first but it will eventually dry down to a matte finish.
Performance
Aside from the issues that I initially had with the application of the Meet Matte Hughes Liquid Lipstick overall it wears pretty well. I need to be careful eating & drinking, we had a mojito & pizza night & it was gone by the end of the night. But keep in mind that I did eat alot of Pizza!
It didn’t fade un-naturally or smudge all over my face either which was a bonus.
When I’m just going about my day normally I have maybe a cup of coffee and a snack in the afternoon và I’ll typically need to lớn touch up my makeup after the 4 hour mark.

I don’t think that Meet Matte Hughes liquid Lipstick is nearly as long wearing as The Balm claims, it’s literally written on the packaging và I don’t find that it lasts any longer than a liquid lipstick from ColourPop. I’m not going to complain for the $9.99CAD I paid for this lipstick, but I don’t think I would buy another if they priced it khổng lồ match the American SRP.
Pros:Smells greatno featheringdoesn’t cake into lip linesfades naturallyCons:Not as long lasting as I hopedExpensive (in the US)Application is a little trickyHave you tried the Balm Cosmetics?
Let me know what you think of the Balm Meet Matt(e) Hughes Liquid Lipstick? The packaging gets an A+ from me, và the performance is a solid B. This isn’t my perfect lipstick but I certainly lượt thích it enough lớn buy more shades if the price stays under $10CAD!
