The Milani Bold Color Statement Matte Lipsticks are described to have an easy glide-on formula that dries comfortably and lasts up to eight hours of wear. These lipsticks are supposed to have pigment-rich formula providing superior, bold color infused with Monoï Oil to keep the lips ultra-soft and smooth. For today’s post, I’m going to review and swatch all shades that are currently available.
The Milani Bold Color Statement Matte Lipsticks are available in 17 shades. Each come in a plastic, rectangular, black tube with gold details, holding 3,6 grams of product. The shade name is written on the bottom of the tube with a background that has the same color of the shade. I like details like that, it’s easier to find your shade without having to open the tube. I also really like that the brands logo is pressed on the lipstick bullets.
Here are swatches of all 17 shades of the Milani Bold Color Statement Matte Lipsticks. They are all very opaque, swatch evenly and all have a similar, satin matte finish. Depending on the shade, the texture and scent are slightly different. I’ll give a short desription of the texture an scent in each individual swatch below.

I really like the variety of nudes and bold shades that the Milani Bold Color Statement Matte Lipsticks offer. As you could see from the individual descriptions, the texture and smell differs per shade. What they do all have in common is the finish and pigmentation of the shades. I also noticed that over time, the color breaks down a bit on the inner rim of my lips.
The lipsticks all are very pigmented and even though some of the shades apply slightly patchy, it doesn’t look bothersome. They feel creamy, soft and comfortable on the lips. Over time, they start to feels slightly drying and become more matte.
I do like the quality of the lipsticks, some are a bit less comfortable due to the smell but overall, I would definitely recommend them if you’re not bothered by scents. My favorite shades are 01 I Am Fabulous, 13 I Am Happy and 21 I Am Cool.
