I absolutely swear by these lipsticks. I used to be a massive MAC lippie fan, until I tried MUA matte lipsticks - now they're all I wear and saves me a fortune!

The lipsticks work well as a base colour or on their own - I love the matte look but sometimes I like to apply a clear or nude gloss on top if I'm going out.

They glide on so easily and the colour stays on your lips for ages. The only down side is the small range of colours available - I think there's only five however they still range from dark red to pink to nude so I can't overly complain about that (especially for the sake of £1!!)

I honestly couldn't rate these any higher - and I'll never go back to MAC's matte range again.
