Hey ladies! If you have been following me on
Instagram, you must have seen the picture where I have was jumping like a
bubble about laying my hands on yet another budget find. This time, it is in
line with the recent craze in beauty world which does not seem to end very
soon: Matte Lips! And who doesn’t like good quality products at a steal price? Many
of you know about my obsession with Miss Claire products. So much that I bought
twelve shades from their popular Soft
Matte Lip Cream range (Read Review HERE) and not to forget their cutesy French Manicure Kit (Read Review HERE).
So recently, I bagged four shades from their Longlasting Matte lipsticks and
here are my thoughts on them!

Packaging:
These come in form of slim-sticks which are colour coded as per the lipstick
shade inside. The outside packaging is matte which means no issue of ugly
fingerprints (Yay!). The lipstick bullet is much like the very famous Colorpop
Lippiestix. The cap clicks shut effectively and thus these can be travel
friendly as well.

My
Take:
Let me first talk about the shades I have picked-
·
31
Solid Red- A true bright red. It does not verge on neon side
and so is wearable by every complexion alike.
·
20
Antique Rose- A warm dusty pink. A perfect
my-lips-but-better shade for warm skinned ladies of any complexion. It might be
a tad warmer for cool toned ladies
·
34
Dark Pink- This shade is a misnomer because it is nothing
close to dark pink, rather a pretty Barbie pink. The shade would work
beautifully for cool toned ladies and would also look great on warm toned beauties
if we use a tad darker lip pencil underneath.
·
17
Beige- This is a perfect nude shade. It would suit across
eevery skin tone if you know how to work with nude shades. Please do not
confuse MLBB shades and nude shades. Read
this post HERE to see how you can work with nude shades or you will end up
looking like you have just applied concealer to your lips (eeyew!)

Now, coming to texture and pigmentation, the texture
is best described as “soft matte” and
buttery. It glides like a dream and covers all lip pigmentation in one
swipe. It looks slightly creamy on
immediate application and settles to a perfect matte in ten seconds. And by
that I mean no flaky or parched lips kind of look: it looks smooth and comfortable on lips. It does
not settle in lines at all and does not feel like you have put poster colors on
your lips which the Incolor matte me lip colors made me feel (Read review HERE). The fragrance is of caramel
toffee. Yummm!

And now coming to the
most important part: the longevity.
So, my office cab picks me up at 4:45 AM. Yes, when the whole world sleeps L
And I am not fond of using office washroom as powder-room, so I end up getting
fully dressed and decked at home itself. So I applied two shades, Solid Red as
a tint and then Antique Rose over that. Then I had breakfast at 8 AM (Medu vada sambar and bread pakora!) and
the color remained intact. Even in the AC environment, the texture of lipstick
did not feel stretchy of tugging at all. Post that, I visited washroom twice
and was surprised to see the colour still vibrant. Then at 12.30PM, I had a
full plate of Indian meal and finally I saw the colour fading a bit. Still, it
was in no way ugly patchy fading: It was as if the colour got lighter by two
shades :D By this time I was whopping with joy. And since my testing period was
done, I did not keep a track after that.

So yes ladies, a whopping 8 hours no fading!
Needless to say, I highly recommend this range. There are some other deeper
shades which I am dying to try out now. Let me know if you also have these
lippers and how you feel about them J
