Once I first began stepping into make-up, it was the pharmacy stuff that pulled me in. On the time I used to be watching Michelle Phan and Holly Ann prepare with NYX, Maybelline and Milani. These had been the manufacturers I heard rather a lot about and I purchased every part they used as a result of they had been the primary Asian influencers I noticed utilizing shades that labored with my pores and skin tone. Now, I’ve MANY ladies of color to select from which is improbable and although I really feel like I’ve moved on from drugstore make-up as an entire, there are nonetheless manufacturers that keep on my radar as a result of they do have some cult favourites that I swear by. With regards to Milani, it must be their Liquif’eye Eyeliner and their Luminoso Blush. I’m actually carrying this blush as I sort this! Now, I had by no means tried a lip product from them and why I made a decision to be adventurous and blindly purchase these Amore Matte Metallic Lip Cremes I do not know, but it surely was on a lunch break at work and perhaps I used to be feeling sassy. Regardless, they didn’t change into one thing I’d wish to expertise usually, however they did appear fairly cool in idea.
Bought by me
The premise of this product is fairly easy in that it’s imagined to be identical to a matte lipstick with a light-weight consistency that may final all day in a metallic end. We do not usually see this with metallic finishes which is what attracted me to this product instantly. It additionally got here in some on a regular basis shades which I used to be interested by so I grabbed two that regarded appropriate for me based mostly on wanting on the shades by way of the tube.
The method was very clean, you possibly can see the metallic end instantly and is pigmented with out a lot product. No must dip again into the tube!
Mattely in Love
Cinematic Kiss
I appreciated “Mattely in Love” a little bit extra in color than “Cinematic Kiss” and the end is certainly metallic, however oh my goodness is it ever unforgiving on each single line you might have in your lips! I’m nearer to 40 now, so my lips aren’t as plump as they had been in my 20s, however from swatches on others the traces on the lips and the metallic end appear to go hand in hand.
Ultimate verdict: As cool as these appeared and even look, I doubt I will likely be carrying these fairly often. I’ve lastly realized to like the matte lip and I’m pretty used to the sensation of a liquid lipstick that dries down absolutely matte and dry to the contact, however these weren’t hydrating within the least and felt virtually a bit uncomfortable. For the reason that solely one who may see these on in particular person was my husband, he would additionally like all of you to know that “they made my lips look very dry”. That is what occurs while you purchase drugstore on a whim with none studying any evaluations, however that is okay. I have not’ sworn off Milani, however subsequent time I will likely be a little bit extra discerning.
I picked these Milani Amore Matte Metallic Lip Cremes up at my native Rexall.
