PRODUCT REVIEW: ELLEN TRACY'S THICK STICK LIP COLOR
I got this as a gift and the packaging looks so cute that I do not want to open it. Ellen Tracy is more famous for their clothes and not their cosmetics but I am still willing to try it and share with you my readers the swatches!
The box contains five lipsticks and unfortunately each color does not have a name. So I will just review it per color, okay?
Brand: Ellen Tracy
Product Description, Weight and Ingredients:
COLOR 1
This is actually a nice shade. It is like orange but when applied it has a more pinkish look.
COLOR 2
Don't ask, I do not know what happened to this lipstick but it sucks...LOL. The color does not spread evenly and even though I tried applying several layers, the color of my real lips still shows. Even its consistency is very different from the other four.
COLOR 3
This is the best shade and it has the best texture too. The shade is slightly pigmented, two to three layers of application to get this color pop.
COLOR 4
This shade is sheer and it is a light plum color.
COLOR 5
This is a nude shade. I can wear it over my regular matte lipstick. It looks like a regular gloss but it has a little color.
SWATCH:
Overall, all the lipsticks has a waxy taste and scent. It reminded me of crayons, literally. The color pay off of all the lipsticks are fine with me except Number 2, I really do not know what happened to that lipstick.
This lipstick set (and the brand) is not readily available in the Philippines. For a 5 set of lipstick for $20, its not that bad. You can easily find this set at Amazon and Ebay internationally.
