Eight New Milani Color Statement Moisture Matte Lipstick Shades (Pics & Swatch Comparisons)

UPDATE: additional swatches added to bottom of post.

Did you hear the news? The new (permanent) Milani Moisture Matte Lipstick shades have landed! We've got eight new beauties in this range, but if you missed my review/swatches of the original eight shades, you can check that out HERE (I adore these lipsticks so much).

Many thanks to reader Joy (@blackandwhitepolkadots28 on Instagram) for this one. She spotted this display at a local drugstore in her area, but I'm guessing they'll be popping up at CVS and other retailers soon (alongside the new limited edition Powder Rose Blushes). Joy kindly shared some pics of the display plus some swatch comparisons:

Joy was also nice enough to compare the two shades she purchased to some existing Milani lipstick shades:

Matte Naked (original Moisture Matte shade)

Matte Beauty (new Moisture Matte shade)

As you can see, Matte Beauty appears to be darker, and warmer, than Matte Naked. Great news if Matte Naked was a tad too cool or light for you, right? I love Matte Naked but it can be just a little bit too light on me sometimes, depending on the look I'm going for, so I cannot wait to try Matte Beauty.

Plumrose (from the Color Statement line)

Matte Darling (new Moisture Matte shade)

Plumrose is one of my faves in the regular Color Statement line (on me it's a pinky-brownish-mauve) but I'm kind of liking the idea of a slightly lighter, more pink shade for summer. What about you?

Matte Darling, Matte Iconic, Matte Luxe

I just received these swatches of Matte Darling, Matte Iconic and Matte Luxe from reader @zenia1 on Instagram. She also kindly swatched MAC Ruby Woo next to Milani Matte Iconic for us:

MAC Ruby Woo vs. Milani Matte Iconic

@zenia1 said that Ruby Woo is a tad warmer, while Matte Iconic has a touch more pink to it. But yeah, VERY close, right? Yay!

Milani Matte Luxe swatch comparisons

@zenia1 is on a roll! She just shared some great swatch comparisons of Milani Matte Luxe vs. some other popular bright orange shades. She told me that when she put some translucent powder on top of MAC Morange, it looked identical to Milani Matte Luxe. So if you've always wanted a matte version of MAC Morange, there you go! Oranges get a little distorted on certain monitors, so if you're having a hard time telling these swatches apart, LA Splash Glazed Papaya is a touch darker and Revlon Audacious is a touch pinker. MAC Morange definitely looks the most like like Milani Matte Luxe, just with a shiny finish.

Have you spotted these new shades in your area yet? If so, did you find them at CVS, Walgreens or elsewhere? What do you think of these new additions to the Moisture Matte line? Do you have your eye on any shades in particular?

Thanks so much, Joy and @zenia1, for the great pics (and swatches). I really appreciate it!
