Lumene Lingonberry Lip Lacquer

The reason I want to review or swatch so many products here is mostly because that way I remember them myself. I remember what i liked and disliked about a product and if I ever plan to repurchase I'll have my notes on it here.



So today we'll be looking at the Lumene Lingonberry Lip Lacquers.

I got 3 of these as a Christmas present from a family friend.

The shades i have are 1, 6 and 8.



1 is a warm peachy muted color. If it wasn't so pigmented it would be a nude. Probably something I could use in a 60's makeup.



6 is like a hot pink. My favorite out of the three. If I liked glosses more I'd probably use it a lot.




8 is also a natural color. A sort of My Lips But Better shade.


They all have great pigmentation and they're basically highly pigmented lip glosses. And as such, they're actually pretty good, they're sticky so they stay on, but they don't have that overly sticky feeling that would put you off.  As a bonus they also feel pretty moisturizing on.

Lip glosses aren't really my thing though so I don't really use them; my hair always gets caught on them and then wipes it on my cheek which is especially a problem with pigmented glosses since it makes a mess of my face.

The packaging is handy but I think the design could be improved. I probably would never have bought them myself at a store since they don't look very appealing.

The applicator is a thin brush which I like since it allows you to be precise. I never could get the shape I wanted with the spongy applicators like the one in Rimme's Apocalips.

So overall a good product though these particular shades might not be the best for me. Muted colors don't really do anything for my skin tone so I tend to avoid them at all costs. However if I feel like buying a new lipgloss I would consider purchasing one of the brighter shades.

And on a side note; It's really horrible taking close up pictures of your own lips. If you have not experienced the torture, I suggest you try so you'll know what I'm talking about. My lips get really tense and start wiggling by themselves from the tension, hence why I couldn't really get good looking pictures xD



Love,

Cherry
