ColourPop Glossy Lip Stain Swatches

ColourPop Glossy Lip Stain ($8.00 for 0.21 fl. oz.) is now a full-fledged range that includes nine shades (it was originally debuted in the Cherry Crush collection earlier this month). Heads up: most light and mid-tone shades get darker after a few minutes and tend to go more reddish/pinkish as the stain develops.

Bite Beauty Power Move Soft Matte Lipstick Swatches

Bite Beauty Power Move Soft Matte Lipstick ($28.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a new range of lipsticks that includes 20 shades. The formula is supposed to be “creamy, non-drying” with “fade-resistan[ce]” and “velvet matte” finish that delivers “bold color.” The line also launches online at Sephora Sephora tomorrow for in-app and July 12th for online. It is the long-awaited replacement for the prior Amuse Bouche range, though what they have most in common is that they’re both twist-up, traditional lipsticks, but the finish and feel are quite different. My initial impressions after swatching through the 14 shades I received as press samples and testing a couple (so far) is that the formula is the more modern, silicone-heavy kind that has a mostly matte finish, feels fairly lightweight, but is on the thinner side and is less forgiving of lip texture/imperfections. The lighter shades, as expected, were least flattering to wear, while the darker shades were the most flattering to wear. Per the ...

How do you deal with lip colors that settle or feather?

Thankfully, feathering isn’t something I experience very often, but product that settles into my lip lines… to some degree. For certain types of products, e.g. gloss, I just live with it, but if it’s a lipstick, then I’d try using a lip primer or lip liner underneath to help manage it. — Christine Join Discussion source https://www.temptalia.com/how-do-you-deal-with-lip-colors-that-settle-or-feather/

ColourPop Rum Runner Blush Stix Review & Swatches

Rum Runner ColourPop Rum Runner Blush Stix ($8.00 for 0.33 oz.) is a medium coral with moderate, warm undertones balanced between pink and more orange paired with a dewy sheen. It had semi-sheer, buildable pigmentation with a smooth, balmy consistency that had moderate slip and applied best with a fingertip or a stippling brush. The formula worked well on bare skin as well as layered over base products and blended out well (though I didn’t do a great job in the initial swatch photo but confirmed when I actually tested that it was my fault!). This shade stayed on well for eight hours before fading a bit. FURTHER READING : Formula Overview for details on general performance and characteristics (like scent).
