~ Review ~
Texture ~ Smooth, long lasting, highly pigmented and does not dry up my lips at all. I hate to admit it, but this lipstick has impressed me to the core. My intention was to buy it, review and then give it away to somebody, but now I want to keep it for myself because it has managed to soften my 'change-of-season' chapped lips, which my other lip balms have failed to do recently. It could double up as a lip tint too when dabbed on lightly and blended with fingers.Scent ~ It has that unmistakable classic lipstick scent, like the lipstick my mom had at a time when all I cared about was fairytales. But it doesn't bother me because it is not very strong.
Packaging ~ Encased in a cute burgundy-colored satin-look tube with a gold upper end, it looks quite classy.
Shade ~ In the pictures above I'm wearing #128. It sure is a chameleon of a color. The color that is closest to the one I see in the mirror is the first one (1.)
Buy again? Very unlikely. I think this lipstick is like a fling ~ good while it lasts, but when it's over, it's over. Time to look for true love....or another fling.
Unless, they offer more shades - lighter, fresher, summer shades. With matching tubes. Can't help imagining a salmon pink lipstick in a matching salmon pink-colored tube. Now that is true love material.
