A few weeks ago I decided I
Love the quirky, true to form Soap & Glory packaging ... with a nice shiny chunky tube ...!
Some good things going on in there ...
Cute S&G hallmark stamp in the bullet ...
Swatched ...
Described as a 'satin finish' it goes on smoothly without the need for lip balm underneath and does feel quite moisturising. I sometimes struggle with 'the nudes' but, colour wise, this has turned out to be one of the most wearable lippies for 'everyday' that I own as it's not too light, dark, pink or brown - my perfect nude? As far as longevity is concerned, if I apply, blot and reapply etc then it lasts a good couple of hours, as long as I don't eat anything - which practically never happens! Will have to see how long it lasts with a lip primer - any recs for a decent one? It does just fade away evenly but because this colour seems so close to my natural lip colour maybe the only thing to do is to buy another stronger/brighter shade (they all look lovely to be honest!) just to check up on the pigmentation? ;)
Don't even ask about that facial expression. Smiling didn't work that day and I can't pout to save my life so I'm afraid it's the 'spaced-out' look or nowt! Seem to have a plethora of open pores showing up too but hey-ho it was warm!
Anyway - back to the lippie - I am liking my Naked Beige for a natural look and have been wearing it constantly for the last few weeks. It's not a 'lip popper' but 'your lips but better' and is definitely one that I can just stick on quickly whilst running out the door (and since I'm usually late for everything this is a regular occurrence)!
Soap & Glory products are on 3 for 2 offer at Boots at the moment so may be a good time for me to try out another couple of colours? Have you tried out the Super-Colour FabuLipstick - which one did you go for?
