People from the UK will know who Alexandra Burke is. In fact, if you watch the X Factor, you'll know who she is. But I don't watch reality shows, so I got this not cause of her but I just wanted a matte lipstick.
I got mine in Doin' Good. It's a pretty light orange/brown.
So it states that you can use it 4 different ways.
Such a pretty not brown, not orange color. In fact, it is more pink when worn. Not exactly pink, just more towards the red side of thing. I guess the color of coral. I don't know.
(L-R)The gloss, gloss with lipstick, the lipstick.
As you know, I can't take pictures, so excuse the terrible photos. But as you can see, the color is just leaning towards coral. Even though it ain't coral. I think it is suppose to be a brownish peach.
What I like about the lipstick, is that it is matte. I really love how it looked on my lips, but I hate how it is not moisturizing. After awhile, you will feel the dryness. But when you catch yourself at some mirrors when you walked pass, you'll see the awesome color on your lips. I heard that's what matte lipstick suppose to give off, the beautiful looking colored lips.
Here is another picture, with the shimmer on top and on a different lighting. In here, it is absolutely more mauve-pink/red.
The shimmer feels gritty on the lips. It is like a bunch of chunky glitters being slap on your lips. I do not like the texture. But it do look pretty in life. I just prefer the matte finish.
So for the price, I guess it is worth checking it out. Especially if you can get your hand on it during sale. But do wear a lip balm underneath.
