All six hues are gorgeous from the first swatch, but it was when I put them on my lips that I started to see the difference in staying power and pigmentation in the varying shades.
Colossal Coral was the shade I was initially drawn to, as in the Summer I like to opt for a lightweight coral lipstick that gives of a subtle wash of colour and isn't too overpowering. This offering is one of my favourites from the collection, closely followed by Raving Rouge; a strong satin true red that is unlike anything in my stash.
Fully Fuchsia- an intense hot pink- is a shade I wouldn't necessarily pick up myself as I don't find I reach for vivid lipsticks very often. However Berry Burst, a deep mauve hue, is going to be one that I will get out once Autumn comes as it's easy to apply and has even coverage.
For me, Notorious Nude and Power Pinks are the two offerings in the collection that I was the most excited for, but when it came down to the application they didn't show up on my lips. However, If you have lighter lips than I do then Notorious Nude would be the perfect Summer nude as its creamy in texture, light on the lips and has the perfect balance of both pink and brown undertones.
With a lightweight formula and satin finish, these lipsticks can be sheered out or can be built up to create a stronger colour. When applied, the minty scent doesn't linger for very long and if you're not used to plumping, tingly formulas, then this would be a great starting point as the feeling only lasts a few minutes.
Have you tried the Sleek Power Plump Lip Crayons?
