MAC Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolour Collection ($20 each) at Nordstrom

The matte lip trend started some time last year, and it has definitely trickled into 2016 with at least a couple of brands continuing with newer versions of this classic formula.  The MAC Retro Matte lipsticks have been around and popular for quite some time, and the new Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolours seem to be just as popular an addition to the range- at least going by how quickly they seem to have sold out at my local Nordstrom.   These liquid lip colours are similar to lipglosses in the creamy liquid texture as well as the packaging - tube with a flocked applicator - but the similarity ends there.  These liquid lipcolors are bright, pigmented, and pretty much opaque with none of the glossiness that's usually associated with a lipgloss.  The finish is described as "liquid suede," and it does settle into a powdery velvety finish.   The color range is mostly superbright-red-dark, but the matte finish does give most of these colors a modern, easier-to-wear look.  Scroll on for swatches.
