About Max Factor
Max Factor is one of the most celebrated names in makeup, founded in 1909 by Polish-American beauty pioneer Maksymilian Faktorowicz — the makeup artist who coined the word "make-up" while working with Hollywood's golden-age studios. Now part of Coty, the brand bridges professional artistry and accessible everyday beauty. The Colour Elixir line is its hero lipstick collection, of which the Matte Bullet offers a modern, polished matte finish.

Shade — 20 Rose
Rose is a soft, warm-toned pink shade — a flattering rose that suits a wide range of skin tones and works beautifully for everyday wear. It pairs equally well with natural and bolder eye makeup looks, making it a versatile staple in any lipstick wardrobe.
Who it's for
This lipstick is for anyone who loves a polished, everyday rose shade with a modern matte finish — particularly those who want a comfortable, wearable matte rather than a heavily drying liquid lipstick. The accessible price point and flattering shade make it a great staple for makeup beginners and experienced lipstick lovers alike.
