Rose inc. Satin Lipstick in "Poetic":
• $28, 4 g., made in Italy
• The color is described as a muted coral and it's the most beautiful coral I've tried in years. It's a coral, but perfectly refined and close to nude.
• The packaging may not exactly feel expensive, but you can't deny it's made with style. The plastic is pleasant to the touch and the magnetic clasp closure is handy to use.
• The formula is unique, but not the most hydrating. It is supposed to be "line blurring, plumping and softening" and does nothing of the above 😂 You can see it actually accentuating my lip lines. And it's not hydrating too. At all. Like you need a balm right after it wears off 😂 It's closer to matte and very longlasting, so I get why it's not hydrating.
• It smells like roses with a bit of vanilla. I like it, but be aware if you're sensitive to fragrances. The aroma doesn't linger, though.
•
I'm in love with this product, even though the formula was not impressive. First off, love the refined colors of this whole line, the colorists of this brand know what they're doing. Secondly, I love that it truly provides luxury experience - it's a new, conceptual, sustainable luxury. This is the brand of our future.
