Color Blur

See Full Review Here!


These are incredibly pigmented, like you barely even need to touch the skin at all to get full on color payoff. Plus they feel sooo lightweight on the lips. It's crazy. I don't know how it's done, but they are fantastic. I find that you can see my lip creases quite a bit, so maybe stray away from the lighter colors, I don't find that they look bad unless you're super up close and personal. They leave a slight stain behind that matches the color of the product.

After some thought, in the middle of the night, it occurred to me that these little guys remind me of the Wet n Wild Fergie Velvet Matte Lip products that I found at Walgreens at the beginning of the year. They are lightweight and matte like the Wet n Wild lipsticks, but have way more pigmentation.






Orange Ya Glad is very similar to the Creamy Matte lipstick in Craving Coral (one of the original ten). Orange Ya Glad may be a tad bit darker, but it is also way more pigmented, so that might attribute to it looking darker too. The Color Blur leaves more of a stain behind than the Creamy Matte lipstick.



Fast & Fuchsia is similar to Bite Beauty Palomino and the Matte Lipstick in All Fired Up, it's almost like a mixture of the two colors.




Creamy Matte Lipstick Editions








Vibrant Violet - This is a dupe for a 2013 limited edition Maybelline lipstick Lavender Voltage. Lavendar Voltage was a traditional creamy glossy finish, whereas Vibrant Violet is of course a matte, but the colors are spot on! I prefer a matte finish anyway. Lavendar Voltage could come off a little streaky for me at times anyway, so I am super excited to see the same color come out again this time in a matte finish, and a permanent color. Gorgeous color!




All Fired Up - This is a hot pink red color, I don't know how else to describe it. It is sooo beautiful! I love it! It reminds me of Bite Beauty Palomino, but when swatched side by side, they really aren't that similar. Bite is a bit darker and has more of a berry tone.




Pink Sugar - For some reason this one reminds me of the Maybelline Bloom collection lipstick in Peach Poppy (which I returned, so I can't show them swatched next to each other). This light color always appeals to me in the tube, but on my lips, I don't think it's a flattering as I would like it to be. This one is a tad streaky and feels like it needs a concealer underneath to really make the color pop and turn out as awesome as possible.




Blushing Pout - This reminds me of Milani Matte Blissful lipstick I tried and reviewed a couple weeks ago. However, it has a much nicer texture, it feels better on the lips, plus it doesn't sink into the lines on my lips really badly like that Milani one did. I no longer have the Milani one because I returned it, but I do have NYX Audrey, which is a lipstick I compared Milani Matte Blissful to in a picture. Audrey is a brighter pink and Blushing Pout have a cooler mauve-y undertone.




SuperStay Better Skin Skin-Transforming Foundation - 20 Classic Ivory

SuperStay Better Skin Concealer - 30 Light/Medium - Reviews to come on these!


I am super excited to try out these face products, but I need plenty of time to formulate an opinion on them before I report back to you guys here on my blog!

I thought the shades might be a little dark, but we will see how it goes with a full face of makeup! :)







Thanks for reading!
Love,
