What is it and who is it for? Faces Ultime Pro Longwear Matte Lipstick Red Addict and Read My Lips are waterproof lipsticks that last for more than 8 hours on the lips. The range of shades are bright that give the users’ lips a burst of color. It provides an opaque application in just one swipe. These amazingly matte and high performing lipsticks suited for everyone who loves a matte lip.
Price:
When I brought these lippies, they retailed for Rs1, 000. I got mine from a Faces Cosmetics outlet. However, now they retail for Rs.699 on nykaa.com. Each one of these lipstick tubes contains 2.5gm of product and have 18 vibrant shades to choose from.
How to use:
The lipstick comes in a twist-up tube. It is very easy to use, all you have to do is uncap the lipstick, twist it up and swipe it on your lips. Personally, I would recommend wearing a hydrating lip balm underneath after exfoliation before wearing the lipstick because even though the lipstick feels creamy at first it tends to dry out the lips slightly after a few hours.
My experience with the Faces Ultime Pro Longwear Matte Lipstick Red Addict and Read My Lips
I bought two of these lipsticks one of which is called the Red Addict (an orangey red) while the other is called Read My Lips (a shocking hot pink). I am absolutely in love with these lipsticks because they are extremely creamy and opaque. They stay on for more than 8 hours even when I am constantly eating and drinking, and wear opaquely in just one swipe, so that means that a little product goes a long way. I wear these with a lip balm underneath because they can be a bit drying after a few hours of wear like all other matte lipsticks out there. These are a bit tough to remove but using an oil based makeup remover makes it easier to remove it. These also leave behind a hint of a stain when removed on the lips.
