I already featured the Color Tattoos from this collection, read about it HERE. I am also giving away the four shades featured in that post. For details and to enter head over to the official blog post by clicking HERE. And for this post I’m doing the lip color. I’ll save my opinion on the whole collection on a different post. For now let’s just take a look at the colors in the lip category. There are two swatches on the swatch pics. The top is just one swipe and the bottom one is at least 4 swipes (except the first one).

I actually like almost all of the shades in this collection (except the first one, Bronze Metal). They are very wearable. It doesn’t dry my lips or bleed. The lighter shades are actually easy to apply without a mirror. I’m glad I indulged 🙂

My only observation with the packaging is that it seems like the length of the lipstick itself is not calculated well into the tube. The lipstick doesn’t retract all the way down so what happens is that the tip of each of the lipsticks that I bought is smashed in various degrees. It doesn’t really affect the performance of the product so it’s quite ok.

I got these lippies at Rite-Aid for US7.19 and are also available at CVS and Walgreens.

Did you fancy any of the shades? Do tell…
