Hey everyone,
I am back with another lipstick review. Yeah, I am kind of a lipstick fan. I love using lipcolors and lip balms, they make my lips look so healthy. The colour I am going to review today is a Cremesheen finish lipstick from Mac called Creme in your coffee. I had originally bought this lipcolor in place of Cosmo, but ultimately ended up buying Cosmo too. This color has become my sister’s favorite one and she uses it a lot.
Price:- 990/-
Finish- Cremesheen
First of all I would like to tell you that this is one ‘Chameleon’ colour. It looks entirely different in different lighting and on different people. At times it looks brown, at times pink and at times mauvish. I really cannot describe the colour of it. Also I have not yet seen or bought any similar colour.
I originally went to buy Cosmo, but in the store lighting it looked too weird on me, so I tried on a darker colour and it looked really nice. But outside the store it looks a little bit dark on me. Which is the reason why I used it for a few months and then started ignoring it completely. But it is not that ignored since my sister loves the colour and uses only this colour lately.
The finish is cremesheen. It is very creamy to apply and does not dry your lips out. The staying power is an average 3 to 4 hours since it is more creamy. It glides on very smoothly. The colour would suit every skin tone very well. On darker skin tones it will look like a very pretty pink brown and I highly recommend it to people who are NC 40 and above. This colour would not disappoint you!
The swatches can do more justice to the colour as I am not able to describe it very well. You can see for yourself. My skintone is around NC 35 to NC 37.
Lets sum up the review.
PROS:-
1. Versatile colour. Would suit everyone
2. Glides easily
3. Does not dry the lips out
4. Decent lasting power
CONS:-
1. The lighter skintones may find it a bit dark, but that depends on the personal choice.
My rating:- 4.5/5
hehehe how it looks when I put a tissue on top of it freshly applied.
I would highly recommend you all to try this colour for sure.
