A Definitive List of the Best Brown-Girl Beauty Products of 2016

Milani’s Amore Matte Metallic Lip Creme collection features bold, pigmented matte lip colors with a metallic finish. My favorite for the holiday season is its gilded cranberry hue in Pretty Problematic, the perfect sultry red for brown skin. It applies to your lips like velvet and provides a subtle sparkle, making it extremely wearable for daytime or holiday parties. To prevent my lips from feeling dry I prep them first with a hydrating lip primer, then continue to apply the color.
