[Review] Mirabella Colour Vinyl Lipstick swatches and review



Here's a post that's a little different from what I normally do~

Mirabella is a brand that I deal with a lot at work and they come out with new collections quarterly. I figured I'd start posting reviews and swatches of them since they're relatively new whenever they come in and it'll help people who are hesitant in buying them! :D

So, to my knowledge, Mirabella is slowly phasing out their normal lipsticks and instead switching to these ones instead. Their starter set is 12 colors ranging from nudes to berries and are paraben and gluten free!

Here's what the site says about them:




The colors I personally own are Glossy Ginger, Rosy Rouge, Metallic Blush and Caramel Creme.


I've yet to put the "10-hour wear" claim to the test since I've never had to wear makeup that long, haha. But it's definitely stayed put for 5 hours with no feathering and only minor re-application.


I feel that the lipsticks vary a but from eachother as far as smoothness goes and some also have hints of shimmer in them but the shimmer doesn't really show up on the lips.
Some of them glide on like butter and others take a quick second to heat slightly from contact to your lips.


Swatches from left to right:
Pink Polish, Glossy Ginger, Rosy Rouge, Caramel Creme, Mulberry Mocha, Cherry Shine, Metallic Blush,Coral Flash, Lavender Lustre, Vintage Vibe, Scarlet Sparkle, Icy Violet

I think most of them are pretty accurate but the last two colors are actually a bit darker then they appear.

Out of the colors I personally own (even though I've tried all of them) my favorites are Glossy Ginger and Rosy Rouge. Out of all the colors, add Icy Violet and Scarlet Sparkle to that list!
Rosy Rouge reminds me of my favorite Shiseido lipstick that I ran out of a long while ago. xD

Hopefully this helps for people who wanted to see swatches!

Review: MUA Lipsticks 1,12,13,14,15




I mentioned in my last post that I received my MUA package finally~
 (on the site they said that you can't report it as "missing" unless it's been 35 days. 35 DAYS! 
D: Glad mine came in after about 3 weeks. :3) 

I was SUPER excited to get my MUA package a few days ago and jumped right into trying everything out. All of these lipsticks normally sell for about $1.50 but I got them 50% off! :D

I'm on my way to building my makeup kit so I wanted to try to stock up on lipsticks to melt into a palette. I really love to buy tons of colors...but I end up only using a few, haha. I normally don't wear any colors except a nude pink or red unless I'm just taking pictures of something. xD 

So, SWATCHES AND REVIEW AHEAD!
