My Review
I absolutely love the texture of this lipstick. It is super soft and silky and it glides on to the lips effortlessly with a nourishing balmy feel.
It applies in lovely fine layers and you can build the intensity of each shade in light swipes. The finish is beautifully shiny yet the texture grips to the lips for great long lasting wear.
It feels super moisturising thanks to its 40{2ac9033caf61aa83cf45584f992fcbdbe657ee6f770037f39c3ded45073822b8} skincare ingredients and it’s actually really lovely on the cheeks and eyelids too, especially in my favourite shade No 13.
No 13 is the perfect nude – not too peachy or pinky and it gives any makeup look a really modern vibe. I love it.
The packaging is fabulous too. I love pulling this out of my bag for top ups.
