colourpop lippie stix frida

this is another favorite of mine. oh okay.. i think i like every one of them.. especially the nude colors.. i think they're suitable for everyday use so i can use it any time without thinking too much. from the website, frida is described as a warm mid tone nude pink with satin finish. it was created by another youtuber, coffee break with dani.

the packaging: just like the other lippie stix, it also comes in a pen-like tube that you can twist to take the lipstick out. there's a shade name and formula name at the bottom to make it easier to choose the lipstick. the label has the lipstick color as well.

the smell: as i mentioned before, i notice there's a subtle vanilla scent on my palm when i swatched them.

the formula: this one is satin, but it glides smoothly as well. actually, i don't see much difference between the matte and satin, or to be honest, between brink and frida. i swatched them first and i don't know that they're different in formula. all i can say both matte and satin are not drying at all.

the color payoff: this one only need one swipe to. but as usual, you can build it up, but since it's nude color, it won't change much. i know that the web describe it as nude pink, but on me it looks peachy. slightly peachy from brink. if you think brink is too dark for you, then try frida instead.

the staying power: like any other light color, this one won't last long, probably around 3-4 hours and it will disappear with eating and drinking. this one also doesn't set into lines and doesn't bleed too.

overall, if you need a nice nude color, you can try this one. but i don't think this one will suite everyone. someone told me that frida looks weird on her. well, for $5 each, it won't hurt to try to find out whether it's suitable for you or not. as for me, i glad i pick this one.
