too faced melted matte liquified matte long wear lipstick "queen b"

when i saw another beauty blogger sneak peaking this in instagram i was so excited! i love the other melted lipsticks (see my post here) and i couldn't wait to get my hand on these. i actually saw these in ebay before they were in the website and i had to order one (even in mind blowing price..). i have been just too busy with school and travelling that i haven't have time to write about this baby (or other stuff that i have recently purchased, so stay tuned!).

and i have to say, i'm not disappointed! infact this is propably the best liquid lipstick i have tried. it's smooth like velvet, light but still very pigmented, long lasting but doesn't crack. the only thing i don't like is the shape of the packaging.. but i guess i'll live!

the other thing i need to rave about is the price - amount ratio, since with 21$ you get 7ml of product! (compare for example anastasia beverly hills 20$ and ~3,25ml). that is like double the amount.

"queen b"

this mauvy color got my attention from the start and there was no doubt of which shade i was going buy. suits to daily wear as well as formal events, goes with any makeup and outfit. a great makeup staple.

currently 16 permanent shades in the website, as well as one exclusive. go check it out!

this is my first time trying products from too faced. their website only delivers in US, so it is a bit hard to get your hands on the items. (of course there is various websites selling their stuff, but in finland not really good ones..). too faced in my point of view is really cute and trendy brand. one of their iconic products is the chocolate bar eye shadow collection, which you may have heard of. but of course i'm not so suprised that a product that catched my eye was the melted liquified long wear lipstick.

my choice of colors were from the new shades, chihuahua and melon.

i have seen lip balms and glosses with the sponge applicator, but in a lipstick it's more rare. i have fallen in love with the texture of this product - it's soft and balmy, but also has really covering pigment. it also dries a little bit, so it doesn't feel sticky at all on the lips.

i must say this color is much more darker than i expected it to be, and at first i didn't like it at all. but now i have wore it few times and its definitely growing on me. i was thinking a long time between this and the shade "nude", and now i think i should have took that one, but maybe next time ;)

really amazing bright summer color, that i will be wearing a lot for sure!

here is a swatch that i based my purchase on, and as you can see the colors are actually much darker, so of course i was a bit shocked first, since i used a great amount of money to buy these from ebay.. (nothing against the person who made that swatch, different lighting/camera/person makes a real difference in make up).
but nonetheless the melted lipstick is a really great product and maybe i will buy some other shades later!
