Okay, so you know how everyone's still wearing those safe nude lips in September? Girl, this Sky Magenta is for when you're ready to actually make a statement. It's that perfect bright pink-purple that looks confident without screaming "I'm trying too hard." Not gonna lie, the first time I wore this shade to a client consultation, she literally stopped mid-sentence to ask what I was wearing.

What Makes This Special
Real talk - finding a bright matte that doesn't make your lips look like the Sahara desert is basically impossible. But this Sky Magenta formula has these moisturizing elements that keep your lips from getting that gross, cracked look by 2 PM. The pigment is seriously intense too. One swipe and you've got full coverage, which honestly saves so much time when you're running late (which is always, if we're being honest).
Here's the thing about wearing a shade like this in September... everyone expects you to transition into those fall browns and burgundies. But Sky Magenta hits different when you pair it with a cozy sweater. It's like that unexpected pop that makes people remember you. When I was doing makeup professionally, we'd always have that one client who wanted something "different but not weird" for fall events. This shade was my secret weapon.
The application tip on this is actually genius. You use the pointed tip to line your lips first, then flip it on its side to fill everything in. No separate liner needed, which means one less thing to buy and one less step in your routine. I've been using this technique for months now and my lip line has never looked cleaner.
The Real Details
Not gonna lie, this shade can be intimidating if you're used to nudes. My trick? Start by applying it just to the center of your lips and blending outward with your finger for a softer look. Once you get comfortable, go for the full bold application. The formula is long-lasting enough that you're not constantly checking mirrors, but it's not that weird cement feeling some mattes have.
For September specifically, this color works with literally everything. Wore it to back-to-school night, weekend brunch, even a wedding (got compliments from the bride's mom, so you know it was appropriate). The moisturizing elements mean you can wear it all day without that tight, uncomfortable feeling. Just remember to exfoliate first - any bright matte will show texture if your lips are dry.
Girl, Just Try It
If you've been stuck in neutral lip territory and want something that makes you feel put-together but interesting, Sky Magenta is it. Quality formula that doesn't destroy your lips, color that works for September and beyond, and you don't need five different products to make it work. Plus that 1 oz size means this tube will last you through the entire season and then some (we're talking 3-4 months of daily wear).
