It's a little behind, but it's time for update #2 of my 30 Day Lipstick Challenge! I had a harder time sticking to the lipsticks this go-round, which I think was because I had to go back to the hospital and clinic. I tend to keep it really neutral and natural when I'm working with patients. Without further ado, here's the swatches and list!
From left to right:
1. Tarte - LipSurgence Lip Tint in Believe
2. NYX - Butter Lipstick in Sweet Tart
3. Lipstick Queen - Medieval
4. Lipstick Queen - Electric Slide
5. Rimmel - Kate Moss Lasting Finish in #104
6. MAC - Velvet Teddy (Matte finish)
7. Lipstick Queen - The Hustle
8. Tarte - LipSurgence Matte Lip Tint in Generous
9. Lipstick Queen - Hello Sailor
10. Make Up For Ever - Rouge Artist Natural in N9
On to the reviews!
1. Tarte - LipSurgence Lip Tint in Believe -- Believe is a fairly bright pinky red with a glossy finish. The LipSurgence Tints are very comfortable to wear! I like this color if I'm going for a slightly bolder lip.
2. NYX - Butter Lipstick in Sweet Tart -- Sweet Tart is a bright hot pink. Very smooth texture, and a nice choice if you want a pop of color! Needless to say, I was too much of a chicken to wear this one to clinic...:)
3. Lipstick Queen - Medieval -- Medieval is a sheer red that gives nice color without being overwhelming. Lipstick Queen is one of my favorite brands, and the sheerness makes this a very versatile color!
4. Lipstick Queen - Electric Slide -- Electric Slide is a bright red with glitter. I don't usually go for glittery lip colors, but I think this one is fun! Another one I didn't wear to clinic, though, haha! My only problem is that the glitter tends to stick around even when the color has worn off!
5. Rimmel - Kate Moss Lasting Finish in #104 -- This is one of my most worn lipsticks! The color is a beautiful mauve with a matte finish. It is very pigmented and can be worn anywhere! It's a good compliment to pale skin like mine. :)
6. MAC - Velvet Teddy (Matte finish) -- This was the nude that the lady at MAC recommended for me when I asked for help. It is a fairly brown nude with a matte finish. MAC lipsticks have good pigmentation and are comfortable to wear. Different than what I usually go for!
7. Lipstick Queen - The Hustle -- This is another one with glitter! I guess I was on a glitter kick this time around...This one is much lighter in color, more of a nude, I suppose.
8. Tarte - LipSurgence Matte Lip Tint in Generous -- Generous is a matte nude. I really like the packaging of the lip tints because I find the chubby pencil form to be easy to apply. I like Generous, although the matte finish is a little drying.
9. Lipstick Queen - Hello Sailor -- This lipstick intrigued me because in the tube it is a dark blue! It goes on very sheer and turns my lips a berry color. It's also supposed to make your teeth look whiter, which is always a plus. :)
10. Make Up For Ever - Rouge Artist Natural in N9 -- I got this lipstick as a little sample in my birthday gift from Sephora. One of my favorite clinic colors to wear! It gives a nice muted red color, but still looks natural.
So what did I learn this time around? I think I definitely look better in color than in nudes, hahaha! I think when picking a nude, you have to make sure to get the right shade so you don't end up looking like a corpse (no offense if that's your thing, I just don't look very good with no lip color!).
Which one is your favorite? Least favorite? Let me know in the comments! Thanks for reading!
Best,
Anna
