Liquid Lipstick Love Series ft. The Balm Cosmetics Meet Matte Hughes Devoted

The Balm's Meet Matte Hughes Devoted is a slightly orangey bright red lipstick. It is also noticeably lighter and thinner than Loyal. This is the most problematic of this line due to that thin consistency as the coverage also tends to be thin and it becomes a bit tricky to apply it evenly on the lips. I can definitely see some areas where my natural lip color was peeking through and that's just not what you want with red or dark lipsticks. On the other hand, this lipstick still photographs rather well which is true of all the Meet Matte Hughes. All in all, Devoted is not my favorite red liquid lipstick. I'd say if you want a red from this line, go for Loyal or Adoring instead.
