I really appreciate that you always mention the scent of the lip products. I’m sensitive to certain fragrances, and it’s really helpful

K-beauty brands have some of the best matte but moisturizing formulas!

The blurred lip look is one I've associated with Korean beauty for years now--they've got so many brands doing different versions of these formulae. I'm quite fond of the rom&nd lip stuff, their staying power is no joke and they don't feel *too* drying on my dry, dry mouth. Congrats on five years, Matilda--I've been right here with you through all of it! xx

For years now you've been my reliable go-to for whatever lip look I'm going for - congrats on your 5 year anniversary! Can't wait to continue coming to these videos for future faves in further years💋

[mewlollipop]

Mac's Powder Kiss Liquid Lipcolour! It's honestly one of my go-tos because the texture is whipped, soft, and so easy to blur. You can do a light wash and blur or build it up for more pigment.

My favorite lip formula of all time is the Bobbi brown crushed lip and thank you so much for putting it on my radar years ago ❤

[sarahlaurebelguenani]

I made you discover the Givenchy formula but you are the one who made me discover the Bobbi Brown’s formula, not sure if we should blame or thank each other 😂

Happy Youtube anniversary, Matilda! What an achievement 👏🏽
Cannot wait to see what you have up your sleeve for the next 5 years ❤
Lovely video, Matilda. As always xx Sarah

The Kaleidos Soft Cloud lip clays are exactly this!!! The deeper shades can be tricky to apply but the more nude/red tones are beautiful 😍

So I’ve been having a really rough time lately and one of the best ways to calm down I’ve found is just meticulously cleaning my house. But i do that I’m left alone with my thoughts and I don’t want that. So I put on your videos kind of like a podcast and your soothing voice combines with the cleaning always gets me to calm down

Congratulations for your 5 years! Always a pleasure to watch, the quality of your channel is incredible!❤

You made me fall in love with Bobbi brown, Matilda!

[LilyN]

Happy 5 years matilda! I've been a silent viewer for 2 of them and excited for more to come!

My aunt gave me Bobbi Brown Italian Rose as a goodbye gift before I moved to Germany, and it has been one of my most worn lipstick til now!

I was so mesmerised by this video that I bought the Givenchy sheer lipstick 16 and I never looked back!
Amazing formula, doesn't transfer with kisses :D

[pearlite]

I love the Mac Power Kiss Liquid Lipcolour. There is a bullet form as well but I like the liquid form. (It's not drying or transfer-proof like a typical liquid lipstick, it gives a soft matte lip look)

[crewlworld]

Thank you for always including info on the scent of the product. It really helps with decisions making.

[stayforever]

I love your videos, the organization, your calm voice and straight to the point, also just so simplistic and refreshing ❤❤❤

Congrats on 5 years!! your channel has always been my "comfort videos" :') If you're willing to do another asian beauty feature, there are sooo many velvet/soft matte/sheer matte/blurring products that I think you'll like! 3CE blurring liquid lip (I see people mention their velvet lip tints all the time but this one is superior IMO), Bbia last velvet tint, Bbia last powder lipstick, Into You shero lip mud, Romand blur fudge tint, Peripera ink the velvet, Clio melting sheer matte balm, etc. There's also even lighter-weight, watery blurring lip products, like the 3CE Blur water tints. It would be cool to see you check them out!

[Amelia-nzle]

Audibly said "yessss" when I saw this had been posted 🥰

[chylgh]

Some of my favourite powdered matte formulas that I would highly suggest are: MAC powder kiss (both in the bullet and liquid), NARS soft matte lip balm, and NARS air matte liquid!
