blk Long-Lasting Liquid Matte Lipstick

     blk Long-Lasting Liquid Matte Lipstick is my favorite from this cosmetic line. I always get compliments whenever I'm sporting the shades simple and sassy. I highly recommend this liquid matter lipstick from blk if you want something velvety but matte at the same time. It applies like satin and doesn't dry my lips. I'll muse more of my experience in my review.
