I picked up 2 mascaras and three lipsticks. The most used product for me is the #70 lipstick...on the light side of the force. Metallics are huge this year and this shade fits right in. This is a metallic nude shade with loads of sparkle. This shade is SUPER pale, so for my skin tone I need to wear a nude lipliner underneath or I pair it with the shade Mink by Revlon.
Here is the product swatched on my lips with no liner or base lipstick underneath.
Here is the product swatched on my hand. This is where you can see how pale this lipstick shade is in comparison to a brown lip liner in Tawny by Jordana.
I love this collection and I think it was neat that Covergirl decided to win one for all the ladies who are Star Wars Fans!! P.S. I like this shade so much I bought a backup :)
The Covergirl lipstick on its own is not really flattering on tan skin tones just because it's a light pale shimmery shade but I do think that pairing it with a darker lip or nude or even a brown lipstick look super pretty on your skin tone as well as darker skin tones
ReplyDeleteI would have to agree with you that by itself it really isn't a flattering shade! I do have two favorite lipsticks that I pair with this shade on top of that are really flattering. I think throwing on this frosty nude really amplifies the look :) maybe I will get a post up with the combos soon
