It can create a smooth canvas to avoid a cakey look. Exfoliate every other day with a gentle lip scrub on your finger to get your smooth canvas for a matte lipstick.
Moisture your lips
Sometimes your lip scrub can’t provide enough moisture for your lips, it is suggested to apply a thin nourishing lip balm to hydrate your lips. This not only protects lips from cold weather, but also helps fill in any cracks to let your matte lipstick go on smooth. In addition, since matte lipstick can be super drying, apply a thin layer of balm on your lips before applying lipstick to keep lips moisturized.
Lips liner
