Colour:
So this is the colour I expected to receive when I ordered Cool Coral (6704), and below is the picture of the actual colour. I MUCH prefer the actual colour to the photo on the website. The photo online does the lipstick no justice whatsoever, it's just a stock lipstick photoshopped a bit to slightly resemble the colour you might imagine the lipstick to maybe be.
The actual colour of the lipstick is a lovely shimmery orange/red.
It has a great payoff, not too overwhelming but definitely the same colour that it is in the tube - it doesn't take 2 or 3 coats to build up, it's just there instantly and it's so pretty!
It's very multi-dimensional and depending on where the light hits it, you'll see a different colour, which I love.
I've never found that I had to wear lip-liner with this, it doesn't seem to smudge or bleed or wear thin, it's fine just on it's own - great for quick touch ups and not having to re-paint your whole mouth!
Texture:
It also has a kind of rough texture to it, probably because it's a mineral lipstick? but I just like to pretend that's exfoliating my lips. It's actually really hydrating and makes my lips feel so soft.
(no surprise when you see the ingredients list below)
Longevity:
It has quite good lasting power, doesn't clump together in cracks in dry lips, and it doesn't smudge really easily - I can eat and this will stay on, but I'll touch it up anyway just because I love the colour.
Packaging:
The packaging has held up well, for all the knocking about in my coat pocket, being man-handled and bashed, it's still in near-perfect condition. No cracks or splits in the plastic, and the eyes lips face hasn't rubbed off the side yet either.
Value:
It's my go-to lipstick, you know the one you keep in your coat pocket rather than your handbag? It's that one. It will sit forever in my coat pocket for those moments when I need shimmery orange lips.
It doesn't seem to be wearing down very quickly either, which is great. You can tell from the photo that it has softened a bit around the edges, but considering my almost daily usage, I still have most of it left - I bought it around 7/8 months ago, maybe more? So that's pretty good going.
Rating:
This is my favourite lipstick, and considering all points - Value for money, lovely colour and excellent payoff. I'm giving it 5/5.
