A Makeup Minimalist's Guide to About-Face Products

I'm not usually one to line my lips, but I decided to give it a try with the Matte Fix Lip Pencil ($12) in the color False Alarm. Let me tell you, this matte liner glides on my lips like a dream, and if it could talk, it would say, "I'm here to stay, and I'm not going anywhere." I use it to line my lips and then lightly fill them in so that they look softly tinted. The color lasts for hours even after eating and drinking.
