How do I make a sheer lipstick matte?

I have a gorgeous deep berry shade of lipstick; only problem is, its a bit too sheer for such a dramatic shade and I can't find a matte lipstick which is the same colour. Is there any technique I can use to make the lipstick look more matte?

Layer a generous amount on your lips, careful to not go outside the lines though. Then all you do is set it with a bit of translucent powder on a velour brush. Then blend your lips together. I find that this makes the color much better then long wear matte lip color. Good Luck.How do I make a sheer lipstick matte?
Apply alot of the lipstick.Take a single ply tissue (you can take one square of toilet paper and peel the layers apart) and put it up to you lips and powder your lips through the tissue,preferably with loose powder and a powder brush.
