Colourpop Ultra Matte Liquid Lipsticks

affordable
 


Colourpop has some of the most high quality and pigmented products that don't break the bank. The Ultra Matte Lip are liquid lipsticks that dry down to a intense matte true to its name. Some colors can tend to feel slightly chalky, but nothing a good lip primer beforehand or lip balm couldn't fix. With a wide variety of colors to choose from and a price tag of only 6$ these are AMAZING!
 
 


From top left clockwise: Beeper, Guess, Jellies, Be-Dazzled

Beeper- This color, like most, will vary depending on your skin tone. On me it turned out to be a mid toned dusty pink color.  (I'm around a NC45 in MAC for a basic reference and bounce around between Tahoe and Cadiz in NARS.)
 
 
Guess- A dark eggplant color, if you want a dark lip but are too scared or have commitment issues with black lips, this is the way to go.
 
 
Jellies- This is my absolute FAV and is what made me try these lipstick in the first place. If your like me and say F*ck it to the stares you might receive this color quickly become your go to. (plus it makes your teeth look hella white.)
 
 
Be-Dazzled- A bright purple, absolutely stunning on ALL skin tones. The name says it all

These can be found on colourpops website, and there is almost always a coupon code for a extra 5 dollars off purchase.
 


MAC Oh, Darling! Swatches and Dupes

dupes





Here is a quickie for those who were not able to get their hands on the Oh, Darling! extra dimension skinfinish that MAC launched in the Magic of the Night collection. These dupes are IDENTICAL when put on, plus you don't have to shell out 100's on ebay trying to find it.


Can you tell which is which?
From left to right: gilded honey, pro sculpt duo #2, Oh, Darling!

 




Laura Geller Gilded Honey 26$

Can be found here (usually, but its constantly sold out. Trust me I literally was tracking this baby down for a month until I found the one place it wasn't sold out of online, Macy's)
The only difference with this compared to the others is that it isn't as intense, nut only slightly. A better way to word it would probably is that it is able to be sheered out easier. This is best if you are the type to sometimes want just that "lit from within" glow, then take it to that " blinding, stop traffic shine" highlight.


MUFE Pro Sculpting duo in #2  39$

The priciest of the bunch can be found here. Though, the price can be easily justifiable since it has the butteriest (is that even a word, well it is now), smooth texture out of the lot. Plus it comes with a bronzer.



Well there it goes, all posses the strong light gold metallic shine comparable to the infamous Whisper of Guilt. So before you drain your bank account shelling out ridiculous amounts for this highlight, opt for one of these.
