Last weekend I was in Stockholm, and since Stockholm unlike any city in Finland, it means shopping for new cosmetics! Kat von D products were released in Sweden in February. Previously I've only gotten them from trips to the States, but this is much more convenient! I like Kat von D beauty's aesthetics and shade selection, and the packages are to die for. I got three new liquid lipsticks (one went to a new home as the shade was not very me), a regular lipstick and a gift-with-purchase mini lippie, which is the cutest thing ever!
I was supposed to swatch all my Kat von D lipsticks, but apparently forgot one. Sorry!
|
Gift-with-purchase Underage Red is so cute! The middle one is Vampira and on the right is Poe, which I forgot to swatch. |
|
Everlasting liquid lipticks. From top to bottom: Exorcism, Lolita, Damned and Echo. |
The swatch pictures are unedited, as I wanted to show the shades as close to reality as I can. Thus they look a bit grey and flat.
|
Damned, Echo, Lolita. Damned is a dark, cool red, very dramatic. Echo is an interesting medium blue. |
|
Echo, Lolita, Exorcism. Lolita is a really nice shade, it's a peachy nude. I also got Lolita II, but it was way too orange on me, so it went to a new home. |
|
Lolita, Exorcism. Exorcism is a much warmer red than Damned, and a bit lighter. Not the most natural shade, but much easier to wear than Damned and very different too! |
|
Exorcism, Vampira, Underage Red. Vampira is quite close to Exorcism, but a sheerer formula as a Studded Kiss lipstick, and a teensy bit lighter. Underage Red is not a shade I would have bought, but I think I can make it work! Both Vampira and Underage Red look much lighter when swatched on skin than on lips, as lips are a lot more pigmented. On skin Underage Red looks almost neon, it's so bright! The shade is an orange based red, very very red and bright, but a shade that works well with many skin tones. |
I've been wearing Everlasting Liquid lipsticks every day after going shopping :> The formula is really nice, light on the lips, very good staying power, not too drying for a liquid matte lipsticks, and the shades are very easy to wear. I'd almost go so far as to say the Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks are my favourite formula of the liquid to mattes, but it's still a tie between them and the Blackmoon Cosmetics lipsticks!
Wow!
ReplyDeleteLove all that lipsticks, but my heart is with "Vampira" ;)
