They came out last Monday and were on my big disappointment sold out
till' Thursday. Restocked on Friday, so I managed to buy one on Saturday – I’m
talking about new mat cushion powder
lipsticks from Artdeco. I never thought they will become so desirable
between costumers in a small town like mine. Maybe they put just some products
on display for starter. Anyway I got my ˝copy˝ and I’m super happy with it.
Powder cushion lipsticks are not entirely new products, just newer for
our market. We didn’t get the L’oreal ones which are quite similar, but we do
have a cheaper, some kind of gloss version from Catrice. They don’t work on the
same way, but do have cushion applicator. It took me quite some time to decide
if I really want to try these or not, because they are expensive for a
drugstore item, the cost around 13€. Artdeco is anyway in some middle price
range, but their quality is mostly really good.
My new ˝Spring day˝ lipstick
is from their newest spring collection called Hypnotic blossom (that so reminds me on Dior). Powder lipsticks are
available in 6 shades, mine is the most natural looking one. It is truly my
lips but better, orange nude, strictly
mat color. Very appropriate for work and quite long lasting. I was afraid that
this powder will feel super dry and uncomfortable, but it is not. I mean I feel
it on my lips, but it’s not bothering me. It also contains oils for some
hydration. I haven’t detached any smell, just very mild, typical makeup/powder
taste. It’s a strange feeling, which I’m not used to, somehow powdery and silky
at the same time. I really like it and you can’t overdue with this color. Spring day looks very natural.
It is interesting that the product itself is in a cap and not in the
holder. I truly don’t have experiences with this cushions stuff. I somehow
thought that the color comes from the applicator like with glosses. I’m not
sure how will this behave in summer. Can mostly powder contained product also
melt in the car? Probably somehow it can, but harder than standard lipstick I
believe. Application is fun, comfortable, fast and even. You can’t swipe it
around for good results, just tap on the lips. Color is buildable and also supposed
to be appropriate for ombre effect if you’re into that.
Oh and my next cushion wish? Over praised Juicy shaker from Lancome,
but I’m not sure just yet.
