I like liquid lipstick formulas a lot and What I search most in a liquid lipstick is how light weight the formula is and also whether it’s waterproof. Sugar Cosmetics is an Indian brand that I discovered few months ago and, when I tried their Smudge Me Not formula – To be frank ; I was really not a fan of it. When they released their Suede Secret Matte Lipcolours – I was one amongst their early shoppers. I like how comfortable it felt on my lips compared to Smudge me Not lipsticks. Last week they released 10 new shades and I picked two shades from their new release. In this post, I will be featuring the shades I picked up.
- 13 Nylon Nude (Nude Pink)
- 11 Rayon Rose (Brick Rose / Reddish Pink)
Packaging
Packaging is quite good! The matte square tube with a spongy tip wand is perfect for applying liquid lipsticks. These are priced at 799 INR each and with the attractive discounts and offers all the time on their site – It’s awesome to grab these with discounts.
Formula, Pigmentation
SUGAR Suede Secret Matte Lipcolour’s formula is lightweight on lips. If you have extremely dry lips, I suggest you use a hydrating lip balm such as Sebamed, Carmex underneath. The formula is not drying like Smudge Me Not lipsticks.
Suede Secret Matte Lipcolours are #MadeInItaly . They apply smoothly on lips and dries down pretty quick to a comfortable matte finish. Opaque color coverage in a single swipe. Lipstick dries down quickly to a smooth and comfortable matte finish without leaving the lips parched. They don’t settle into fine lines of lips.
Longevity
Company claims that they stay upto 12-hours and there are a variety of shades to suit every complexion. The SUGAR Suede Secret Matte Lipcolour applies wet and then dries down to an ultra-matte yet ultra-comfortable finish that doesn’t budge or transfer. The formula is infused with moisturizing jojoba oil and shea butter that give lips a smooth, nondrying finish. Though company claim the lasting power upto 12 hours. On my lips, it stayed for about 6-7 hours after which it started to fade.
