Karen's lips are not enjoying that matte texture. They look so dry and cracked. I think it's a combination of her lips being pigmented, and the lipsticks being pale mattes. I don't have a lot of lines on my lips so hopefully they don't make my lips look so dry and cracked.
Agreed, that must be it. Thankfully my lips don't have lines and like...no pigmentation haha...hopefully it'll be ok. But man, if I had to go off those swatches...that'd be a no go. Eesh.

Yep...I don't have many lip lines either, but put a pastel matte lipstick on my lips with a not-so-great texture and they're going to be emphasized to the max!
i don't have crazy lines either but my lips can get drier then the sahara .. its all up in the air for me .. if i have to put in extra work for them i don't know if i really want them

I'm actually liking the colors more after seeing them on Karen, but her lips make them look so dry. I wish she would have done full face shots for all of them, too.
Perhaps the formula was dryer than a usual matte? Also she doesn't do tons of passes over her lips like T. So maybe she just did two swipes :dunno: but I like them on her

They do look really frosty...I don't know they just seem really off to me. I think I'm just gonna' pretend I didn't see those and forge ahead getting the lipsticks!

Mattes don't like me either but I just use the prep and prime. I had to get it for Talk that Talk or there would be no way I could wear that color.
i have a few mattes that are fantastic no probs for me at all like the nyx ones or the melt cosmetics i just need a little lip balm and I'm good to go but they just looks chunky gritty on karen looks like the application might be hard

The colors are amazing, but I don't want em if they're going to make me look like an 89 year old donut eater! Maybe we'll see better swatches soon though!
