    Same here. I get a request about 3 times a week and multiple Zintro proposals for Matte Lip Stick.

    These have become very popular in the past couple of years.  They are easy to apply, have good wear resistance and women like the matte appearance.  They’re actually the only color cosmetic I enjoy formulating.

    I can’t tell you how many inquiries I get for this only to have the prospect tell me their mother will be on the follow-up phone call to discuss the cost …

    @markbroussard I can sympathize. I have office hours 9AM to 12PM M-F. When I have an available slots I will do a gratis call with a small prospective line even though it is obvious they are under funded. I will advise them to do a Business Plan and to investigate costs. I am careful since these small lines are unfamiliar with the Industry and will be the first to allege you are overcharging them. Just this week I had a caller try to counter on my fees and offer me $500 instead. I had to be blunt and say “I am working 6 days a week now with what I charge, I am not interested in working 7 by dropping my fees.”

    On topic. just this week I have gotten 3 requests for Matte Lipstick and a Zintro request as well.

    Actually I’ve received several request since last year. Apparently the hype was started by NYX, they have a lot of very vibrant colors and selling at a very affordable price. After that Kylie Jenner who have been famous for her plump lip launch a matte lipkit that are all sold out immediately within few days.
