Milani Amore Matte Lip Crème Collection -Limited Edition

Hello Beauties,
Today I am going to review one of the most talked about liquid matte lipsticks, but they are limited edition. Make sure you run by your CVS or Walgreens to find them quickly as they are going out fast as I totally recommend them. They are 8 colors in this collection, from nude to really bold colors, these shades look on different skin tones.
01 Crush, 02 Adore, 03 Beloved, 04 Lust, 05 Embrace, 06 Desire, 07 Romance, 08 Flirt
I was skeptical to pick these as I had bad experience with liquid matte lipsticks  with few other brands. But there was so much hype about it, so I decided to pick them. I picked 5 colors 01 Crush, 03 Beloved, 04 Lust, 06 Desire and 07 Romance. They were around $7 in CVS (downtown Dallas), which is little higher but I have seen on  social media people got them at around $5.99 too, which is quite affordable. I love Milani Matte color statement lipsticks as they are cruelty free and they are highly pigmented and various colors in it which you pick according to you liking.
 
Now lets talk about these Amore Matte Lip Crème, they are in the same tube like they had lip gloss before. The tube has golden cap which feels like luxury product. It has flat applicator on both sides which makes it easier to apply on lips. But be careful the applicator does not have too much product on it. It can go out of control and can come out of lines very easily.
It has really sweet candy kind of fragrance . I still don't know which candy, trying to figure out:) but it goes away after some time, it did not bother at all to me.
They are really pigmented and budge proof, kiss proof. I would say that they are perfectly doing all the claims as mentioned on their website, but it did not last for me after lunch, I had normal sandwich that day and it came off, I have shown in swatch below. It is easy to reapply does not go patchy.
According to website they are :-
This revolutionary, highly saturated liquid-to-matte formula dries to a soft, velvety finish for fuller-looking lips. Its double-sided, flexible plush applicator hugs the contours of lips, working to lock in bold, opaque color. Non-sticky, smooth and ready for all-night wear, the limited edition Amore Matte Lip Crème is the ultimate transfer resistant kiss-me-matte.
Swatches:- I will post lip swatches for them separate:)

Like I said I will recommend to everyone who are looking for budget friendly and drugstore options for liquid matte lipsticks. They are worth the hype, grab before they are gone as they are limited edition.

Review L.A.Girl Flat Finish Pigment Gloss

Good Morning Girls,

Here is my review and swatches for LA Girl Flat Finish Pigment Gloss, which I got them recently when I attended Makeup Show from Ricky NYC counter for $5.99 each and I got 20% discount over it. There are total 16 shades in this line. I bought 6 , one each from one color family as I love matte lipsticks and for this price point, it seemed like worth it.

Overall Review:-

Lets talk about the packaging first, it's sturdy and you can actually see the lipstick color from outside clearly. Its plastic tube, and it has doe foot wand applicator, which is flat, and can get the color on both sides which is easier to apply too. It has name mentioned on the lipstick back side with some number too. But as I said you can see the color from outside, so you don't need to remember the name and keep it upside down in your makeup drawers. It has a weird paint smell, which is noticeable once you apply, but it goes away, but you can taste it little longer on lips. I don't really care about it. I am fine with it.

So now lets talk about application, which is my review about. I love the colors selection, they tend to attract you and the price is great too. I was lured into this. Now I think of I should have tested one before, instead of buying all in once. Basically for all matte lipstick I always exfoliate and apply lip balm on my lips. I did the same for them too. I applied the lipstick slowly, so that it does not spread out of lip line and does not get on my teeth at all. I applied first layer and then when it dried I applied second layer. It was pretty pigmented not streaky at all, but still I wanted two layers. It was not budge proof for whole day, as I ate in between and if you eat oily food, it gets off from inner part of your lips. But whole day I was so uncomfortable because of dry lips after sometime my lips were paining and some of the colors got flakey also. It settled into fine lines and then after sometime it got flakey. After I use to apply them , the next day I was only applying olive oil, lip balm only. My lips got so dehydrated, that all the moisture was gone and it chapped.

Overall I really liked the colors and loved the pigmentation and price point, but it did not work for me at all. I wish it would have worked like other people, but it did not. I am not happy with the formulation at all. I have actually taken a lot of time in testing them out and gave them good chance. I really wanted to like them.

Swatches:- I have tested all these lipsticks separately for more than once for whole day. So here are the swatches.

 

From left to right: Bazaar, Timeless, Obsess, Instinct, Frisky, Rebel

As I said I love all the colors they are pretty pigmented and beautiful on lips.

I will be doing separate post for lip swatches.

My review is totally my opinion, It can differ from person to person. My intention is not to hurt or offend anyone.

Cheers

Review and First Impression for NYX Liquid Suede Cream Lipstick in Kitten Heels

Hi Girls,

Today I am reviewing something which I got to try it in Makeup Show Dallas 2015. These lipsticks are still not released yet, but I am so happy I got to try them and get it complimentary from NYX Cosmetics booth. If you want to know more about it keep reading, my first impression / review and swatches for NYX Liquid Suede Lipstick in Kitten Heels.

When they will be released in Summer 2015, they will have 16 shades in this collection, but they will be permanent. It has a pretty range of colors, for spring and summer, with oranges, pinks and purples and also some dark red and berries which will be great for fall and winter time too.

It has 0.13 Fl Oz/4 ml in a tube, which is good enough for a liquid lipstick. I love the packaging its so fancy specially the top of the cap looks like a diamond/jewel. The actual color of the lipstick can be seen from the packaging, but it can be different on different people, as it depends of the lip pigmentation and skin color. This one is pure red and will look good on all skin tones, it is one red color which everyone will like it.

Swatches:-

 They are really intense and really pigmented and long lasting, set them and stay forever. There is a flat applicator on both sides, you definitely can get all lip in one go as it has  a lot on applicator. I would say apply a SPF lip balm before you apply this on your lips for summers, so that if you have dry lips, it does not settle in cracks or lines on your lips. When you apply on your lips , let it sit don't smoosh your lips, let it dry before you smoosh otherwise it comes out as uneven application. The texture after drying is a little sticky not smooth and I was ok with it.

The only downside I had was the smell, it smells like paint, but it goes away, it is not overpowering, until you open the tube and want to smell it.

I cannot say they are completely kiss proof, as I saw some color when I checked it, but not much.

Now coming to my first impressions, I applied this lipsticks at 8 am, in the morning, I ate drank in between, specially some oily food in lunch but it did not budge, it stayed put beautifully on my lips. It does not stain you lips, but I am so impressed with this application that it did not budge at all.

This color, I have Kitten Heels is pretty red, and I am a sucker of red matte lipsticks, believe me I have more red lipsticks then any other color. I did reapply in evening around 6 pm, as I had some girls night out party, and just wanted  to reapply again, and I also wanted to test if the reapplication is goopy or smooth. It goes on smoothly on touch ups.

I will totally recommend this lipsticks, to everyone and a big thumbs up to NYX Cosmetics for these liquid suede cream/matte lipsticks. Grab when they are released they have pretty fun colors in the collection. Actually you can mix together and get a different color and play around the colors.

I love formula on the NYX Matte Lipsticks, and I have few of them now, my favorite is Alabama, which I have reviewed it on my blog before. I didn't like soft matte lip cream though from NYX Cosmetics which I have reviewed them also on my blog.

So that's my review / first impression for this NYX Liquid Suede Cream Lipstick in Kitten Heels. I hope you like them as much I do, please share your experience with me.


Cheers

Swatches ELF Studio Matte Lip Color Hot Commodity

Happy Saturday,
Today I am reviewing a lipstick which I received complimentary from ELF Cosmetics recently for participating in a contest #playbeautifully.
This lipstick from Elf Studio line which is for 3$ (0.06oz/1.8g), which is pretty affordable, drugstore brand, this is their professional makeup and cosmetics line.
This lip color is “Hot Commodity”, it’s a prefect shade for spring and summer.
It’s a perfect Coral lip color and is matte. Its such a smooth and creamy matte lipstick like any other from this line.

• The enriched vitamin A, C & E formula moisturizes
• Packaging looks really high end.
• Affordable
• Formula is not drying like some matte lipsticks.
• Very good Pigmentation
• Moisturizing
• Long Lasting ( had to touch up after 4-5 hours)
• Daily Use
• Even Application
• Lightweight
Recommendation:- I would highly recommend this color, I don’t know if other colors have some formula or not, but I absolutely love this color. This is one of the lipsticks I'm actually very satisfied with. The color is bright and it stays on for a really long time.
Here are some lip swatches and product pictures.

I have reviewed one more lipstick from this line called Rich Red which is quite popular.

Review and Swatches for Revlon Matte Balm Sultry

Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm in Sultry is a perfect Pantone Color of the Year Marsala Color

Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm offers velvety color with balm-like moisture. Infused with a Triple Butter Complex of Shea, Mango and Coconut Butter. This retractable chubby crayon requires no sharpener.

• Pigmented
• Long lasting 
• Effective 
• Smells/tastes great 
• Soothing

"Sultry" is a great fall/winter pink and is such a rich, creamy color. Velvety Matte Look. Moisture Rich Balm.A beautiful rosy brown with hints of berry. This can work as an every day, every occasion color which would suit all skin tones. This lip balm smells of peppermint. I quite like the smell! The smell fades after a few minutes. Does not feel heavy on the lips.Does not bleed or feather.

But I will suggest thin layer of lip balm underneath, otherwise it highlights any dryness/flakiness and fine lines on the lips.

Cheers

Review and Swatches for Wet n Wild Megalast Lipstick– Mocha-Licious 914C

Good Morning Girls,
Today I am back again with one more Megalast Lipstick from Wet n Wild Cosmetics, its called Mocha-licious. This is deep caramel brown color, silky and smooth but still gives the feeling of creamy matte. I love all Lipsticks from WetnWild, this is another gorgeous color, can be worn in most of the seasons.

The only thing I don’t like about wetnwild mega last lipsticks are their packaging. It’s little cheap and half of lipstick still hangs on top when you close the lid. You tend to break your lipstick when you close the lid, so be careful.

Review and Swatches for Wet n Wild Megalast Lipstick– Cinnamon Spice 917B

Hi girls, how are you, today I am reviewing and swatching another WetnWild Mega last lipstick from my collection called Cinnamon Spice 917B , after reading this post please have a look at the links provided in bottom of this post, where I have mentioned all other 14 WetnWild Lipsticks I have posted on my blog.

Review:-

Picked up from Walgreens for $2. Its one of the best color in lipsticks for fall and Winter. This 4-hour, longwearing lip color leaves a semi-matte, creme finish in one stroke. Glides on easily with rich, velvety color that doesn't cake, feather, or bleed.
Cinnamon Spice is a very dark berry plum color, with little brown undertones to it. looks gorgeous on all skin tones. Its  little dry but who cares if you get such pretty color in 2$. You can wear a lip balm underneath and exfoliate your lips and you are good to go. It does not bleed on you it is  a matte lipstick. The only thing I don’t like about wetnwild mega last lipsticks are their packaging. It’s little cheap and half of lipstick still hangs on top when you close the lid. You tend to break your lipstick when you close the lid, so be careful.

Review and Swatches for Wet n Wild Megalast Lipstick– Spotlight Red 911D

Hi girls, how are you, today I am reviewing and swatching another WetnWild Mega last lipstick from my collection called Spotlight Red 911D.

Review:-
Picked up from Walgreens for $2. Its one of the best color in lipsticks for whole year around. This 4-hour, longwearing lip color leaves a semi-matte, creme finish in one stroke. Glides on easily with rich, velvety color that doesn't cake, feather, or bleed.
Stoplight Red is a very bright, blue-toned red, though not quite as deep and bold, looks gorgeous on all skin tones. Its  little dry but who cares if you get such pretty color in 2$. You can wear a lip balm underneath and exfoliate your lips and you are good to go. It does not bleed on you it is  a matte lipstick. The only thing I don’t like about wetnwild mega last lipsticks are their packaging. It’s little cheap and half of lipstick still hangs on top when you close the lid. You tend to break your lipstick when you close the lid, so be careful.
It’s a dupe for MAC RiRi Woo/Ruby Woo a true red color. This is a great deal and so pretty on tanned/ brown/ indian skin. I can't believe how fabulous this lipstick is for so inexpensive.

Review and Swatches for Wet n Wild Megalast Lipstick– Cherry Bomb 918D

Hi girls, how are you, today I am reviewing and swatching another Wet n Wild Megalast lipstick from my collection called Cherry Bomb 918D
Review:-
Picked up from Walgreens for $2.  This 4-hour, longwearing lip color leaves a matte finish in one stroke. Glides on easily with rich, velvety color that doesn't cake, feather, or bleed. Cherry Bomb is one of the perfect fall color, it is a dark cranberry color, it comes as a maroon, wine color on your lips. As its too dark and bold look, many people don’t feel comfortable with this color. But you can certainly tone it down with light swipe or mix with a different color. But it does stain your lips little. Its  little dry but who cares if you get such pretty color in 2$. You can wear a lip balm underneath and exfoliate your lips and you are good to go. It does not bleed on you it is  a matte lipstick. The only thing I don’t like about wetnwild mega last lipsticks are their packaging.
