The matte finish has been incredibly popular the last couple of years - many of us have been powdering down unwanted shine on our face and searching for the perfect matte lipstick for what seems like forever.  This trial team might just be the ultimate review opportunity for our matte lovers!

The first Maybelline product we're putting to the test is the Superstay 24hr Full Coverage Foundation.  It contains saturated colour pigments to provide an ultra-transforming effect. The lightweight yet high-impact coverage glides onto the skin for a flawless finish that lasts all day.  It's available in 16 shades!

The second product up for review is the stunning Maybelline Superstay Matte Ink.   Available in 9 gorgeous shades, this lip ink features a unique arrow applicator for precise application and a super saturated colour punch!  

JUST look at those shades!!  I'm completely in love with the first three, as the kids would say...heart eyes!

Now 50 reviewers will be putting BOTH of these gorgeous products to the test.  To put your hand up to join this trial team you'll need to take our survey and select your preferred shades.

It really depends if suit the lipstick or lipgloss. Then I would wear it

I love the matte look on lips, especially for a night time look! I prefer the nude shades over any colour, as it goes well with any look. I like the look of the shade ‘loyalist’ - the perfect nude shade! I am always on the hunt for my next favourite foundation, but I am currently in love with L’Oréal True match as it gives a good buildable full coverage flawless look. My skin can get oily throughout the day so the more matte, the better! I find matte finishes last a lot longer, which is more ideal. Especially for nights out! This would be great to try.

I totally prefer a matte lip, however there is a fine line between a matte liquid lipstick being drying. I hate when they crack on your lips. Still trying to find my go to matte lip

I love my BB cream, but hot summer days call for more of a shine-free look on me. How gorgeous are those lip inks?! What a great range to choose from.

Would love to give these products a true test as a nurse who often works double shifts and has a wee shiney problem that is my skin!

Full coverage for 24 hours sounds brilliant. I still haven't found the perfect foundation that gives full coverage let alone one that lasts all day so I would love to try this!

I used to go for shine, but now I'm simmering down a little and want more of a natural look. My skin has become lighter the older I get with broken capillaries which need covering up.

Definitely would love a flawless finish that lasts all day and my friends and I do enjoy chatting about new products we've tried.

OMG BR is doing all the best trials!

Oh my gosh - how beautiful does the matte ink look - Loyalist, Dreamer, Lover and Voyager are stunning.I do love the matte as find it stays on a lot longer and being a busy worker and mum I don't have time to touch up my makeup :) this all sounds so amazing!

I love a bit of shine on my lips - but tend to opt for matte finishes on my face. I haven't actually tried matte lips before - would be interested to see how it was!

Ooh that escapist shade actually any of the last 3 shades in that pic look stunning. Matte has so many purposes but staying power is the best

8th February, 2018

I'm definitely a matte girl! I love matte liquid lipsticks and matte foundations! It suits my combination skin type better, but I also prefer the finish. I would like to trial this affordable matte range to see how it compares to mid priced brands I've tried.

8th February, 2018

I would love to try matte lipsticks!

8th February, 2018

Oh, what an amazing trial! I have put my hand up for this one as I love lippys and am searching for my HG foundation. I am not a huge fan of gloss as it seems to find every wrinkle around my lips, but I am more than happy with a matte.

I am 100% a matte gal, especially recently! I just think it's such a sophisticated look and matte just (or should) last longer so I don't ever have to really think about re applying throughout the day, or smearing - it's just so hassle free so I'd love to try out this new matte lip ink! I also love a nice coverage but find it hard when it's too heavy so the idea of this being light yet has good coverage I am all about it!
