Too Faced When In Doubt La Matte Color Drenched Matte Lipstick ($22.00 for 0.11 oz.) is a light-medium, rosy beige with a semi-matte finish. It had mostly opaque coverage with a drier, draggy texture that applied evenly but looked dry and highlighted the natural texture of the lips. The color started to gather in lip lines after a half hour, and by two hours of wear, the color itself looked uneven in places. It lasted for three hours in total and was moderately drying.

Too Faced Sorry Not Sorry La Matte Color Drenched Matte Lipstick ($22.00 for 0.11 oz.) is a light-medium peach with warm undertones and a semi-matte finish. It had a medium-thick texture that had a dryness to it that reminded me of chalk, and it was extremely unforgiving as it emphasized lip lines and immediately pulled into them. The color looked “cracked” as soon as smiled–much as they can with matte liquid lipsticks–and was all-around difficult to make it look decent. I would recommend a lip primer and/or lip liner with this one. It lasted for two and a half hours on me and was lightly drying (wore it twice in a row to test hydration).

Too Faced The New Black La Matte Color Drenched Matte Lipstick ($22.00 for 0.11 oz.) is a muted, medium orange with warm, reddish tones and a satin finish. It had semi-opaque coverage with a creamier texture that was hard to apply evenly–the color would bunch up and clump in places. The color balled up over the three and a half hours it lasted. It was lightly drying. Tom Ford Beauty Misbehaved (49) (P, $57.00) is more shimmery, lighter, glossier (90% similar).

Too Faced Troublemaker La Matte Color Drenched Matte Lipstick ($22.00 for 0.11 oz.) is a bright, medium fuchsia pink with cool, blue undertones and a semi-matte finish. This was the best-applying shade in the entire range, as the color went on evenly and didn’t drag or tug. It lasted for four and a half hours on me and left a very subtle stain behind (which is, frankly, less than the average fuchsia-hued shade, matte or not). It was non-drying.

FORMULA OVERVIEW | Too Faced La Matte Color Drenched Matte Lipstick ($22.00 for 0.11 oz.) is supposed to be the “most comfortable matte lipstick” with a “high-pigment formula” that is “creamy” and “softens” against the skin,” while the formula is “non-drying.” There have been a lot of modern takes on the matte lipstick that have forsaken the days of dry, firm, tugging mattes in lieu of creamier, more velvety-feeling mattes that have a smidgen of sheen but are infinitely easier to apply and wear–these are somewhere in-between. They’re not the worst mattes I’ve tried, but half or more of the formula tugs, drags, and clumps up. They had a really dry, chalky consistency to me; thick and somewhat heavy. Some shades emphasized every flaw (and some I honestly didn’t know I had at all) on my lips. They were non-drying to moderately drying. The wear time was four to six hours, which is more in line with average across a typical shade range, but I had issues with color separating into lip lines and fading unevenly. The thicker texture gets harder to smooth back out and is extremely unforgiving to reapply over.
