Shade and finish may be the most important elements of a perfect lipstick, but a standout tube certainly doesn’t hurt. Enter MatteTrance Lipstick, Marc Jacobs Edition: a limited-edition release from Pat McGrath Labs. To celebrate Marc Jacobs’s 40th anniversary this year, McGrath has housed her classic red, Forbidden Love, in a bullet (pout-adorned, of course) that features a special all-over engraving of Jacobs’s eponymous logo. The lipstick promises hydration and a matte finish, along with super saturated colour, easily switched up with a swipe of gloss or some lip liner.
