makeup review

I was asking my style guru [personal profile] cupcake_goth about a replacement for my beloved Studded Kiss lipstick which MAC has of course discontinued. She suggested Colourpop, so off I went to get three shades that are new to me. Right now I'm wearing Colourpop's Tiana from their Disney-inspired line. So here's the review.
  • Color: ¡Me gusta! It's just a hair brighter than Studded Kiss, I think, and not (as?) matte. I may like this look even better than what it's replacing.
  • Durability: MAC wins narrowly, at least on me with my eating & tea habits, but then again MAC outlasts damn near everything else.
  • Feel: Colourpop wins. A lot of MAC shades, at least the matte ones, really dry me out.
  • Price: Colourpop wins by a lot! Dayumn! I did not expect that.
  • Animal testing: Colourpop wins.
The good news is that I've found some excellent new makeup. The bad news is that I now have too many lipsticks, if that's possible.

I love Colourpop eyeshadows; I haven't tried their lipsticks (BTW, it's not possible to have too many lipsticks). Their shadows have great coverage (well, except for the green) and actually last all day on my super oily eyelids.
