Pros: applies to my lips evenly, creamy texture, hydrates and nourishes lips really well, wide color range

Lipsticks are an integral part of my cosmetic bag. I can easily do without any makeup, but I should probably wear something on my lips, at least a lip balm. I can actually feel very uncomfortable when I have nothing on my lips. Yeah, it’s pretty odd.

Today I’d like to review the lipstick that reminds me of a lip balm due to its properties.

The claims:

Creamy, moisture-rich formula delivers intense color and a delicate satin finish to lips—with softening, pure plant extracts that treat skin beautifully. Soothing Mango oil and Organic Marsh Samphire leave lips comfortable, nourished and protected.* Intense, non-bleed pigments stay color-true for hours of flawless wear.**

 

Available in 20 shades.

 

*Hydration kinetics, 11 women.

**Effectiveness test on wear - 31 women.

Design:

The design is adorable and at the same time simple. No frills.

The main color is gold.

On top of the cap you can see the letter C.

There are also red hues here. Red is my favorite color of the brand. You can see it at the bottom of the lipstick and inside the cap. The tube looks very elegantly with these colors.

Smell:

I’ve never had any lipstick with such a delicious and sweet scent. I’m not sure how to describe it, but I personally feel the scent of fruits with chocolate.

However, it dissipates from my lips pretty quickly and no aftertaste stays.

Texture and application:

The lipstick is very soft and has a nice creamy texture that glides over my lips easily and applies evenly. A single coat is enough to get an intense payoff. I don’t put on multiple layers, because the coverage is then too thick and it feels like I went overboard. Well, it doesn’t bleed, but looks pretty bad.

The wear:

The lipstick has the necessary moisturizing and hydrating ingredients, which are the mango and Salicornia extract. They protect my lips from dryness and dehydration and make them soft. Moreover, the lipstick is very comfortable to wear.

It doesn’t dry out my lips. It’s really moisturizing and hydrating. It feels like I applied a lip balm instead of a lipstick.

The staying power is medium. The product removes on the first go with a tissue, without leaving any pigment on my lips.

If you decided to leave your lipstick on your lips when having a meal, it’s not a problem either. It comes off gradually and evenly, at least when it comes to the shade 707.

If you don’t eat, the lipstick will last a really long time, but the moisturizing feel will be less noticeable after a while.

I haven’t found any cons at all. Let’s talk about the pros:

  • moisturizes and nourishes my lips very well

  • nice and creamy formulation

  • smells naturally and doesn’t have any chemical taste about it

  • available in 30 gorgeous shades

  • comfortable to wear

  • makes my lips soft and smooth all day

All in all, I’d like to say that this is one of the best 2-in-1 lipsticks. It’s beautiful and treats my skin very well. It does a good job, whereas it looks amazing on my lips and protects them from dehydration and excess dryness.

It’s a perfect lipstick for my dry lips in winter.
