Hello!
This month I am going to try something different. Usually, I let everyone guess the monthly All Star Winner but I don't particularly like that idea. So instead I'm just going to let you find out my favorite each month right after clicking on the post. If you like it this way please let me know. I know sometimes I just like to get to the point when I'm reading other blogs but sometimes mystery is fun too.
Also, I'm sorry this post is late. I haven't been home that much and I finally decided to go ahead and post it anyways. So I'm sorry if the pictures are a little dark. I don't have my usual set up for photography.
I hope you enjoy this months All Star Winner and decide to pick it up for yourself!
May All Star Winner
Make a statement without saying a word! True Instant Color. One stroke, full coverage application. This next generation lipstick gives the ultimate in color, texture and finish. The lightweight creamy formula contains Vitamins A, C, & E to moisturize and nourish lips.
Everytime I decide to wear a nude lipstick I pull this baby out. There's no doubt in my mind that this is my favorite nude shade out of my whole collection. Everything about Milani's Color Statement lipsticks are on point. The packaging, texture, benefits, price, color range, lasting power, finish and pigmentation are simply perfect.
About the lipstick collection
You can purchase it on Milani's website for only $5.49. There are are 36 shades ranging from: orange & reds, pinks & corals, plums & berries and naturals & browns. The whole lipstick collection has several different finishes like: vinyl, metallic, cream, shimmer, pearl and matte.
This months favorite is in the color Nude Creme. This shade is a pinky nude and it looks amazing with my skintone. It's not too brown or zombie looking, just the perfect pinky nude. Every girl should have this color in her collection.
Texture/ finish/ pigmentation
The texture is very creamy, rich and moisturizing. I can wear this lipstick with my chapped lips and they still look stunning. It is definitely lightweight and comfortable to wear during anytime of the year. The finish of this shade is creamy and flawless. It doesn't leave behind a streaky look, feather outside of the lip line or fade too fast. And of course the pigmentation is beyond spectacular. Just one swipe across your lips and you're out the door.
Lasting power
The lasting power is really good for a drugstore lipstick. I can get about 4 hours of wear out of this shade on a regular day. Like I said before in the paragraph above, this lipstick doesn't bleed outside of the lip line and it looks the same for a good while. Plus, it fades evenly and I don't have to worry about a blotchy mess.
Packaging
I love how high quality these lipsticks look and feel. The gold packinging is sturdy and securely snaps shut. I'm sure any girl would love to have this flashy lipstick tube sitting on her vanity. On another positive note, the color on the bottom of the tube is true to the actual shade of the lipstick. This makes it so much easier to pick out any lip shade you're looking for.
Does the lipstick have a scent?
Yes, all of the Color Statment lipsticks I have,including Nude Creme, have a strong watermelon smell. Don't get me wrong, I think it smells heavenly but people who are sensitive to scents may not like them. However, if you love scented lipsticks, especially watermelon, then you will love Nude creme.
Overall
I believe anyone who is looking for the perfect nude will be happy with Nude Creme. There's a reason why it won my Monthly All Star Winner spot. The formula is just amazing and that's what everyone wants. I can't even think of any cons about this lipstick and I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way. It's creamy, moisturizing, highly pigmented, lasts a long time, ect. Plus, $5.49 is so affordable for such a luxery item. Just writing this post makes me want to go out and purchase more of the shades(I already have a few).
