this is another lipstick that i bought before i delivered my baby. the other shade that i bought is a neutral lipstick color. this one is more rosy, like the name, rosebud, but still suitable for everyday basis, since i won't be anywhere except home and church for couple months.. if you're interested in other shade that i bought (just peachy), you can read it here.
okay.. this is the description from the wet n wild website:
lips take center stage! this 4-hour, longwearing lip color leaves a semi-matte, creme finish in one stroke. glides on easily with rich, velvety color that doesn't cake, feather, or bleed. made with hydrating skincare ingredients: hyaluronic microspheres provide extraordinary adhesion to lips, an exclusive polymer complex offers cushion-like feel and texture, and natural marine plant extracts coenzyme q10 and vitamin a&e help smoothes lips.
i forgot to mention before that they also coded the lipstick shade. for rosebud it's 904B. i don't know the difference with the letter, since there are different letters with different shades. just peachy is 903C. i'm glad they put a name on it, but i don't like the number and letter combination. it confuses me. oh well..
the packaging: the lipstick tube is black plastic with transparent plastic cap. and like the other shade, a bit of the lipstick part is popped outside the body so be careful when you close the cap. it also has the color name and number on the bottom.
the color: some bloggers said it's warm rosy pink, medium pink. but on me, it's more on the red side rather than pink. and on me it's bolder than other blogger's swatches. but i have to say it's pretty and still wearable. for pale skin, it's very bright. but for light to dark skin, probably this is a medium pink for you.
the finish: somehow it's less matte than just peachy, and less drying too...
the performance: yes it's drying, but not much. but when i remove it, i can still feel my lips dry a bit. this one glides more smoothly than just peachy, and one swipe is enough to make the color shown. as for durability, haven't tested it yet, but i believe the lighter shade fades quicker than the bolder shade.
overall, this one is better than just peachy, but the shade appears bolder than swatches that i've seen on the web, so i'm afraid the bolder swatches on the web might look horrible on me, so i might stop trying buying from this line. and stick to nyx smlc if i want a matte lipstick. though i didn't say it wasn't nice.. it's okay for a matte lipstick that cheap.. it's a great deal for your money if you don't have a lot of money to spend on makeup but still want to look great. but for me, i don't think this one is for me.
