PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT: GIORGIO ARMANI SHINE LIPSTICK IN 4 DARK ROSE

Here's an initial review on GIORGIO ARMANI SHINE LIPSTICK IN 4 DARK ROSE

PRICE: ?
PLACE BOUGHT: HONG KONG AIRPORT
OTHER LOCATIONS: GA COSMETICS ONLINE

THE VERDICT:

I've read so many rave reviews on GA cosmetics, specifically their foundation line. Well, their foundation is expensive, according to my mom so she got me a lipstick instead, along with my one of my all- time faves, Lolita Lempicka perfume.

Let's now review the packaging.

The tube is in a sleek black design. Texture of the tube is matte. Tube looks classy and expensive. I've always loved lipsticks in black- colored tubes 'cos black is the color of sophistication for me.

Carving reminds me of Chanel. It's so posh! :)

Shine has a sheer, glossy finish. It can also be layered if you want more color.

Dark rose is not the right name for this shade. 4 Dark Rose is a rosy pink color.

The shade is great if you want to finish off your look with a pretty and natural appeal. Even if you have minimal make- up on, Dark Rose is perfect to perk up your face!

It's a great color for summer. But I can still see myself wearing this during the rainy season just to add a bit of sunshine to my look. :)

It glides on and feels like satin! The texture perfectly blends with your lips so it's as if you're only wearing lip balm. I like it because it feels comfortable on the lips. Texture is lightweight. Even if the finish is glossy, it's not sticky at all!

However, since the finish is wet, this has the tendency to rub off easily. Staying power might be good for around 30 minutes.

Will I buy one again? I will because I'm impressed with the shade. The shades suit my taste for lipstick colors so much: feminine, pretty, natural. And the quality of the lipstick is also superb. I just hope the staying power improves. But I'm going to buy one again anyway. Plus a Face Fabric Foundation. :)
