For Lips as Plush as a Pillow
If even the most moisturizing matte lipstick is too drying for you, this semi-matte version might be your best option. Buxom Wildly Whipped Lightweight Liquid Lipstick, $21, is whipped so it feels soft and creamy when you apply, and it doesn't dry and tighten up like so many other formulas. Instead, it feels like a thick balm while still giving you a matte effect.

Mineral Magic
The pretty colors of Tarte Tarteist Lip Paint, $20, are derived from natural mineral pigments. This formula feels especially silky when you apply it, but it turns matte after a few seconds. And the shade names like TBT and Bae are sure to appeal to the millennial in all of us.

Options, Options, Options
Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick, $20, comes in a zillion (28) colors ranging from full-on black (Witches) to navy (Echo) to neon pink (Backstage Bambi). And the only thing more remarkable than the range of shades is just how long this matte liquid lipstick lasts -- we're talking 24-hour wear. Plus, it's vegan and cruelty free.

Matte Plus Shimmer
Matte shimmer may sound like a contradiction, but somehow it's possible with Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick, $24. There are both shimmer and shimmer-free colors available, but even the shimmery versions dry down to a nice satin finish. Thanks to avocado oil, this lipstick feels comfortable all day.

The Adult Version of Liquid Matte
Just because the matte liquid lip trend is huge among Instagram stars doesn't mean it can't also be a sexy, grown-up look. Hourglass Opaque Rouge Liquid Lipstick, $28, comes in wildly chic, classic shades with names to match (i.e.: Ballet, Muse and Empress), and the formula contains antioxidants and vitamins A, C and E to keep fine lines at bay.
