Urban Decay Matte Revolution Lipstick in After Dark

We're in the first few days of September and I'm already thinking about sweaters, layers, and going a little darker with my makeup. For myself, bolder lips are definitely out of my comfort zone and with matte lips being all the rage, I've struggled finding a formula that actually feels comfortable to wear. On my wishlist was a formula that sticks around well, isn't drying and won't spend most of it's time smeared on my teeth.
