I have an infinite number of red lipsticks, none that actually manage to stay on my face. The boyfriend has frequently chastised me for the fact my lipstick always ends up all over him so the promise of a lip colour that wouldn’t budge really appealed to me. Truly Mattely Deeply is part of Sleek’s collaboration with PPQ and the gloss comes in two colours – Jazz – an orange toned red and Soul – a blue tinged pink. The easiest way to describe it is the finish of MAC’S Ruby Woo, with the closest colour match to Lady Danger but applies like a gloss. I tend to hate lip glosses and find them overly sticky but this guy lives at the other end of the scale. It’s a no budge matte finish gloss which is great – but it is also the most drying gloss I’ve ever worn. It almost feels chalky on the lips. If you can get by though the lasting power on this guy is amazing and it does have a lovely finish.
The packaging is sweet and it’s priced at a pocket friendly £4.99, available from Superdrug. It’s a no fuss way to don a red lip and as long as you’ve got a good lip balm to hand will last you through the day.
Has anyone else tried any matte glosses or any anything else from the PPQ/Sleek collection?
