Matte Makeup


I know what you're thinking. 'Matte? It can be so... boring!' Not this time around! Makeup has taken matte to another level. From the notion of flat and bland, matte sure hasn't had a good reputation. With improvements in cosmetic texture, matte makeup has evolved to more than helping you look good but also helping your skin feel good as the products are lasting longer, delivering rich color. Avon's global color creative director Jillian Dempsey has stated, "I think it's going to be a matte world pretty soon."
