COLOURPOP!

Newest Haul for My Collection



It is no secret I love lipstick, and one of the best companies out there is Colourpop! The price of the lippies are only $5 and $6... Yes, they are really that cheap! You can only order online from them, so there is a shipping cost of an additional $5 to your total, but there are ways around this. When you visit their website you can register your email to get $5 off your purchase (meaning no shipping fee)!!

They tend to have markdowns for the holidays and even specials of free shipping, so it's basically deals on deals on deals! They often partner with models, celebrities and makeup artists to create their own customized colors or collection. Colourpop offers more than lipstick: eyeliner, shadow, blush, highlighter, etc. I have not tried out the other cosmetics, but they do look great. I'm just a lippie junkie! I have a LARGE BOX full, and I will share that with y'all one day when it's organized.





Their lipsticks come in 5 different finishes:

  • Ultra Matte- Long-lasting (literally until you take it off at night, and I suggest using something oil based), SUPER matte finish (drying, but a very light swipe of chapstick under will save your lips), and absolutely TRANSFER PROOF.
  • Ultra Satin-  Long-lasting (clings to the lips all day, but easier to remove since it doesn't dry as quick and set in like ultra matte), Matte finish (not drying, MOISTURIZING quality), and slight transfer, but keeps consistent wear for me.
  • Ultra Glossy- High shine and moisturizing (the ONLY finish I do not own, but since it is gloss you can't really go wrong).
  • Ultra Metallic- It does not have a glittery wear like some other metallic lips do. The metallic isn't overbearing, but a more subtle additive to the color. Definitely can go out in at any time of day with it on. May need liner or a second coat for desired opaqueness. Matte finish, but slight transfer.
  • Lippie Stix- Lasting power depends (lasts better with straw and fork action when eating), Matte finish (not a drying formula since it's closer to regular lipstick), VERY comfortable wear and moisturizing (smells so amazing!), and of course it will transfer (carry with you on a night out). Honestly one of my favorites!!!

These are just the three shades I bought recently and I swatched them out of order accidently when compared to the boxes above. Looking at my hand left to right: Lumiere (stix), Dopey (satin), and Kae (matte)!

Much Love,
