Bought this for P350.00 at Digital Traincase


Swatches

FROM L-R: Antwerp, San Paolo

FROM L-R: Antwerp, Sao Paolo

The Good
- it has a sweet, vanilla icing, cake like smell that i can't explain but i love
- applies smoothly, glides on lips like butter
- super long lasting
- if you love matte lippies, this is definately a must try!
- comes with the standard doe foot applicator which makes it easier to apply on the lips and distributes color evenly
- a tube will last a long time
 - color is buildable
- feels light and non-lipsticky

The Bad
- it emphasizes dry lips, so its best to ex foliate and moisturize lips before application
- since its creamy, i find that it tends to settle on the lip lines. it s best to apply lip balm first. 


Final Verdict
A+

NOTE: Colors on the tube is exactly the same color when swatched. but swatches posted may not be exactly the same color as actual product.
