Hey beauties,

Hope your week is off to a super great start. I am a huge fan of matte liquid lipsticks and am kind of obsessed with ColourPop Ultra Matte Lips Liquid lipsticks. Recently ColourPop Cosmetics introduced their mini size To-Go lip kits. The one that caught my attention was "Foxy" that contains 5 mini size best-selling ultra matte lips. This kit contains almost all shades that were on my wishlist so I immediately got it. Let's get to the review to see what do I have to say about this Ultra Matte Lip Mini Kit by ColourPop Cosmetics...

ColourPop Ultra Matte Lip Mini Size Kit Foxy comes in a cute small cardboard outer box. The set contains 5 mini size Ultra Matte Lips including Clueless, Beeper, Tulle, More Better and Creeper. The packaging of ultra matte lips minis is same as full size ones. These come in glass tubes with metallic cap and doe-foot applicator. Each mini ultra matte lip contains about 0.02 oz of product which is less than half of a full-sized ultra matte lip. For size comparison, you can see the picture of one full size ultra matte lip with a mini ultra matte lip.

The formula of ColourPop Ultra Matte Lips is thin and liquidy. These apply easily and dry quickly to a perfect matte finish. I feel the applicator of the mini ultra matte lips is somehow small for lips. Yet it is good for precise application of lip color. These ultra mattes feel lightweight and comfortable to wear. These are not drying and provide the perfect matte finish. The formula of new ColourPop Ultra Matte Lips has surely improved. The old ones that I have in my collection accentuated fine lines and dryness on lips. These new ones, didn't accentuate any dryness on my lips and I love the finish these provide.

The set "Foxy" contains 5 gorgeous ultra matte shades ranging from neutral to bold colors.  The pigmentation of all the shades is amazing. One swipe of color results in opaque coverage. The 5 shades included in the set are Clueless, Beeper, Tulle, More Better and Creeper. Let's take a closer look at each shade.

ColourPop Ultra Matte Lip "Clueless" Lip Swatch

Clueless is a beautiful muted mauvy pink shade. I am not really a fan of mauvy shades but this one is so gorgeous. This has surely become my favorite go-to lip color. It looks so much prettier in person and I will be featuring it one of my FOTDs soon.

ColourPop Ultra Matte Lip "Beeper" Lip Swatch

Beeper is a mid-tone taupe shade. Its looks like a nudish taupe brown shade at times. It is my least favorite shade from the set as I don't usually wear browns. The shade is great for those who prefer taupe or mid-tone brown shades.

ColourPop Ultra Matte Lip "Tulle" Lip Swatch

ColourPop Utra Matte Tulle is a dark vampy shade. It looks like a deep burgundy shade with hint of brown. This shade is perfect for fall/winters. I have never been a fan of vampy shades but I really like this one.

ColourPop Ultra Matte Lip "More Better" Lip Swatch

More Better is a beautiful rich berry shade. It looks like a deep wine shade in indoor lighting. I can't describe how much I love this color. It is so beautiful and instantly brightens up my face. It is a very wearable berry shade. The shade would suit all skin tones and can be worn all around the year.

ColourPop Ultra Matte Lip "Creeper" Lip Swatch

Creeper is a pretty bright red shade with blue undertones. This red is brighter than most of the red lip colors that I have in my collection. It is beautiful and has such smooth matte finish.

All the shades have great staying power and they last almost all day long. These even tend to last through meals. However, I won't say the new formula of ColourPop Ultra Matte Lips is completely transfer-proof. Few shades tend to transfer easily while others transfer just a bit. But for such good pigmentation and amazing finish, these cons can be ignored. At the end here is a quick look at all the gorgeous shades in the set "Foxy".

Swatches of ColourPop Ultra Matte Lip Mini Size Kit - Foxy

All in all, I think this ColourPop Ultra Matte Mini Lip Kit "Foxy" is great value for money. These mini kits are great for trying out different shades before buying the full-sized ones. Also these are good to carry along in purse or clutch. The quantity of the mini ultra mattes is just perfect for me as I don't use them on daily basis. I am definitely planning to get full-sized Ultra Mattes in shade "Clueless" and "More Better". I surely recommend you to check out different mini size kits by ColourPop.


The Goods:

• Great variety of shades
• Amazing pigmentation
• Opaque coverage 
• Dry quickly
• Great staying power
• Nice matte finish
• Do not feel drying
• Comfortable to wear
• Perfect to carry in purse/clutch

The Bads:

• Applicator is small for application
• Formula is not transfer-proof

Price & Availability: ColourPop Ultra Matte Lip Mini Size Kit Foxy is available at ColourPop Website for $18 only. I got mine from Facebook page Brand-O-Holic for Rs 2850/- only.

Hey beauties,

Hope you all are doing great. Today I am reviewing one of the most raved about product of the moment that is ColourPop Lippie Stix in shade "Fetch". This is my first ever product from the brand. Being a lipstickholic, I was quite eager to get my hands on these lippie stix. The lippie stix comes in many gorgeous shades with variety of finishes. I was finally able to find one in shade "Fetch" at Facebook page INDELATH. So let's get to the review and see what I have to say about my first ever lippie stix by ColourPop.

ColourPop Fetch Lippie Stix

ColourPop Fetch Lippie Stix comes in a white thin retractable pen like packaging. It is not as thick as other lip crayons and has a slanted tip that works well to evenly spread the color on lips. It also has a white cardboard outer box and contains a leaflet inside on which you can see the detailed list of ingredients. Overall, the packaging is cute, nothing fancy though.

The Fetch Lippie Stix is described as a perfect mid-tone warm true pink with satin finish on their website. However, I feel its finish is not truly satin and its more of a creamy finish lip color. The first thing you will notice while applying this lippie stix is a strong annoying smell which fades away after a while though. This lippie stix feels so creamy and glides smoothly on the lips without tugging. The color payoff is good and it provides medium to full coverage. Am glad it feels very comfortable to wear and is not at all drying on the lips.

The shade "Fetch" is a gorgeous barbie pink shade. In indoor lighting, it looks like a cool toned blue-based pink. The shade somehow reminds me of Maybelline color drama lip color in shades "In with coral" and "Love my pink". This one lies somewhere between these two shades. It also reminds me of buxom lipstick in shade "Mistress" which is somehow lighter. This shade is very wearable and is perfect for summers. Talking about the staying power, the actual color stays on the lips for about 4-5 hours and then leaves behind a nice deeper pink stain which is darker than the actual color. The stain stays on the lips for some extra couple of hours and lasts almost till evening.

Overall, the formula, feel and finish of this lippie stix is pretty good for the price but nothing that really wowed me. I do think the price at which we get these lippie stix in Pakistan is a little steep and there are similar or even better options available in this price range. However, I am still intrigued to try more shades from this range to see how they work for me. Being a matte finish lover, I would love to try their matte lippie stix next. If you are looking a light wearable pink shade for summers with good staying power and color payoff, you should definitely try Color Pop Fetch Lippie Stix. Those who prefer creamy/satin finish would love this for sure.

The Goods:

• Available in variety of shades and finishes
• Great color payoff
• Good staying power
• Feels creamy and applies smoothly
• Feels lightweight on the lips
• Doesn't feel drying

The Bads:

• Creamy texture of the lippie stix can lead to breakage (in hot/humid weather)
• Can accentuate any dry/rough patches on the lips
• Has a strange unpleasant smell 

Price & Availability:  These Lippie Stix are available online at the Colourpop Website for $5.00 each. In Pakistan, you can order these through any Facebook page. I got mine from Facebook page INDELATH for Rs 925.



My Rating: 4.3/5...!!!
