1 Woman Tested Longwear, Matte Lipstick in the Moroccan Heat to See If It Stays

7:30 a.m: Rise and shine! It's already almost 100 degrees, but the air conditioning in my room fools me into thinking otherwise. I slick on sunscreen and minimal makeup and reach for Clinique Pop Matte Lip Color + Primer in Rose Pop ($19), a rich blue-toned pink. I apply a double dose, blotting in between, in the hopes that it'll give it a fighting chance. Will it withstand a day in Morocco? I'm not convinced. I am, however, surprised how nice the lipstick feels. The built-in primer gives it a creamier texture than I'm used to from mattes, though it dries down to a suede-like look. It feels lighter than the liquid mattes I've tried in the past. In fact, it's almost as if I'm not wearing lipstick at all.
