Hello all! How are you doing? I hope everything is going great in your lives. Today I am going to do a review of the Faces Lipstick in Suede Pink which I got almost two months ago and waiting to share with you all. This post was lying in my drafts folder for almost one month and I thought it should be posted as soon as possible. So, here is it. Let’s not waste time and let’s get into the post.

Faces Go Chic Lipstick- Suede Pink| Review and Swatches 

 Packaging: Faces Go Chic lipsticks comes in a classy black bullet packaging with the shade number and name printed in a label at the bottom of the packaging.

Product (Shade, Texture, Pigmentation and Staying Power): Faces Go Chic lipsticks are really smooth in texture, very creamy in formula and nice in pigmentation. I have been using two of them for over a month now and I’m pretty happy with them. Today the shade from the Go Chic range I’m going to discuss is not at all the typical ‘Pink’ unlike the name suggests, it’s a deep berry/pink shade with blue undertones. A person could easily get duped if he/she is counting on the shade name only. Texture of the shade Suede Pink is very smooth and the creamy formula makes it glide on easily and uniformly on the lips. This shade is richly pigmented giving an opaque finish in just a single swipe. It is able to camouflage my darker upper lip. This shade doesn’t leave any kind of tint after wiping off. The only drawback of this shade is its staying power. On my lips it stays for only 3-4 hours.

Ups:

  • Nice rich brownish berry shade that will flatter almost every Indian skin-tone.
  •  Creamy texture.
  • Glides easily on lips.
  • Uniform colour pay off.
  • Gives opaque finish.
  • Moisturizing, doesn’t dry out the lips.
  • Doesn’t feather out.

Downs:
  • Transfers.
  • Doesn’t stay for a long time.

What I have to say is- Faces Canada Go Chic Lipstick in Suede Pink is a very luscious berry pink shade which is great for evening outings or dinner dates. The creamy formula keeps your lips moisturized for a time being. I don’t think there is any need to put a lip balm underneath the lipstick. It is, in my opinion, a luxury within this price tag. Though the staying power is a bummer, but then I must consider the price. I would suggest you try this shade. You won’t be disappointed.

Hello all, hope you all are doing great. As you know, I was MIA for quite a long time. Actually, my grandfather passed away earlier this month and I was preoccupied with all the rituals and responsibilities. I couldn’t get the time to sit for hours and write blog posts. Sorry for that guys. Nevertheless, I am back in action once again and hoping to get into that writing phase all over again.
Today, I would be reviewing two neutral lip colours from the ELF Studio matte range. The two shades are- Natural and Tea Rose. I have shared these lippies in my iHerb.com haul post. Now let’s jump to the review-
These Matte Lip Colors have a creamy matte formula. It’s not a drying, powdery matte but quite moisturizing on the lips. I loved the fact that this lip colors don’t settle in the fine lines nor they accentuate dryness. It may feel a little dry during the winters, but it won’t be flaky. Before using any lip product I love to use a lip balm beneath. This is not only because my lips tend to get dry frequently, but also because I am habituated to this process.
These Lip Colors stays on the lips for almost 5-6 hours. They don’t bleed, but transfer a bit and they don’t leave any tinge to the lips after wiping off. Applying these lipsticks is very easy as the formula is really creamy and smooth and they glide on the lips effortlessly. Just one swipe is all you need to get an opaque finish, but I love to apply it twice to get a wonderful result. The thing I loved most in this Lip Colors is that they are so light weight. It feels like I don’t have anything on my lips. That is surely a good thing.

ELF Matte Lip Color- Natural

Natural is a n*dish shade with slight pink undertone. I’d say that it might wash out most of the Indian skin tones. I have medium wheatish skin tone with slightly dark lips and Natural looks way too paler than my lip colour. That is not that kind of n*de you’ll like to have. But, it would suit paler skin tones, people with pink undertones. Not a proper n*de for yellow or olive undertones. I love to use this lip colour to conceal my uneven toned lips before applying any light lip shade. It helps to pop out the actually shade. Below are some pictures of Natural-

ELF Matte Lip Color- Tea Rose

Tea Rose is also a neutral shade with slight hint of mauve. I felt Tea Rose is a little creamier than Natural. This is also another pale shade but it doesn’t wash me out. If you have a heavy makeup on your eyes or smoky eyes, this shade will go well with it. You can apply a gloss on top of it to give it more depth. Below are some pictures of Tea Rose-

Ups and Downs of ELF Matte Lip Colors-

Ups:
  • Classy packaging.
  • Perfect creamy matte formula.
  • Very light weight on lips.
  • Moisturizing.
  • Stays for quite a good time.
  •  Doesn’t feather out or smudge off.
  • Decently pigmented.

Downs:
  • Might not be appropriate for every Indian skin tone.
  • Has a mild wax-like smell, but it can be avoided. Smell doesn’t linger after application.
  • NOT available in India.

All I have to say is- ELF Matte Lip Colors are worth giving a try if you are a neutral-lover. I think these shades should be in every makeupista’s kitty. I know we don’t usually do heavy eye make-ups, then you can use these lippies as base, for they are super creamy and moisturizing or you can use these for eliminating dark patches from your lips. They are super inexpensive yet perfectly formulated. I am not sure about Natural but I am surely going to keep Tea Rose with me.

My Rating- 3.5/5

I hope you liked this review. Feel free to let me know your opinion. What is your favourite neutral lipstick?
