ColourPop Self Love Club Ultra Matte Liquid Lipstick Review & Swatches

Self Love Club

Colour Pop Self Love Club Ultra Matte Liquid Lipstick ($6.50 for 0.11 oz.) is a medium-dark red with strong, cool blue undertones and a flat, matte finish. It had good color payoff in a single layer, but it needed a second pass in order to achieve full coverage. The texture seemed very thin, lightweight, and a little on the watery side, though it applied evenly and didn’t dry down and separate along my lip lines. It stayed on well for over six hours, left a stain behind but felt drying after six hours of wear time.

Formula Overview

$6.50/0.11 oz. – $59.09 Per Ounce

It is a long-wearing, pigmented lipstick that starts off glossy and dries down quickly to that super flat matte finish. They have minimal transfer with some of the lighter shades having almost none for the first few hours of wear, but any time you’ve had a meal, they lose that transfer-resistant quality to a noticeable degree. They tend to wear anywhere from six to ten hours with darker shades maintaining better color coverage and wear over a longer period of time.

Some shades get a little drying about two-thirds to three-fourths through the wear, while a few shades have been fairly non-drying even many hours into wear. They fade away evenly with most color loss occurring from the center of the lips if eating a more oil-based meal but the majority of color survives a meal.

Reapplication has been hit or miss and tends to depend on how well it wore away and how easily the shade applies normally, but reapplication tends to emphasize the lip’s natural texture significantly compared to initial application and gives lips a very wrinkled, dried-up look. I’ve layered gloss on top of some shades with moderate success, though it will obviously lose the matte finish and will transfer and I’ll get tiny flakes where the matte lip color has lifted by mixing with gloss but has been pretty minimal. The formula had no discernible taste or scent.

Weekend plans: There’s been a lot of chaos this past week, so I’m hoping just to get a moment to breathe deep and relax a little.
How do you like to relax?: The closest I get is a hot shower, sliding into bed, and reading something (with a happy ending) or watching The Great British Baking Show.

Natasha Denona Rayo Duo Glow Review & Swatches

Rayo

Natasha Denona Rayo Duo Glow ($38.00 for 0.35 oz.) is a light-medium pink with subtle, warm undertones and a soft, metallic sheen. The finish was very smooth and luminous, but it was brighter and more intense than Alba–more in line with how the formula was marketed (“intense”). The powder had an incredibly smooth, denser texture–almost cream-powder in feel–that picked up best with more rounded or moderately dense brushes. It applied evenly to my skin, diffused with little effort, and didn’t emphasize my skin’s natural texture (and my cheeks have been particularly dry over the last few weeks). It had opaque color coverage, though I find denser textures like this shade had to be easier to get less coverage by using a lighter hand. It wore well for eight and a half hours on me before fading noticeably.

What are three beauty-related things that bring a smile to your face?

Applying eyeshadow, especially color, always makes me happy! I love creating different combos by layering gloss and lipstick together. My third is moment where you’ve finished applying your makeup and it all comes together (well, hopefully).

4 x Anastasia Eyeshadow Palettes Ideas

Here are “palettes” that I put together using existing (permanent) shades of eyeshadows from Anastasia. Each one contains 12 shades (which is more typical of a larger palette size). Hope they provide you with some inspiration on arranging and putting together some eyeshadow shades!

Here are some observations I had after trying to put together palettes from the range (which was more challenging than anticipated!) —

Brand is in severe need of more mid-tone and dark mattes that aren’t brown (seriously, how is there no navy blue?)
Lack of greens, taupes, grays, teals
Easier to create palettes with a balance of shimmers and mattes when dealing with warmer neutrals but challenging whenever color gets incorporated (ended up defaulting to black as a result)
