Hello Kitty Red Lipstick


Hey dolls!

I have been wanting a matte vampy red lipstick for the longest time ever and I finally bought one!

When I first saw this red Hello Kitty lipstick, I just knew I had to buy it!

It was compact in size, a beautiful red and had Hello Kitty embossed on the cap! 





The beautiful packaging gave me high hopes for this lipstick, but alas...

*falls dramatically to the floor*

...the lipstick left me very very disappointed.

✽ Overall 


Overview: ♥    ♡
Very very cute packaging, but lipstick formula is sheer and doesn't glide on smoothly at all which requires a very generous amount of swiping to achieve the pigment level above.
Extremely disappointed with this lipstick.


Colour:    ♡ ♡
A gorgeous vampy red when swatched and I love that it doesn't contain any micro shimmers!


Application:    ♡ ♡
The lipstick was sheer and streaky which made it very hard to work with. I had to swipe the lipstick on my lips a huge number of times to get the colour intensity I wanted and had to use a lip brush to even out the colour.
 Also, the colour appears orange-ish in my lips, as seen above.


Packaging:     
The packaging's teeny tiny (about 5.5cm) and I love it! The bullet fits snugly in the case and cause of it's compact size, it's pretty obvious that it doesn't have a ridiculous amount of 'wasted space' like many other lipsticks in the market.

And let's not forget the cute Hello Kitty bling on the cap! 






❝ Pros 
Cute compact packaging!

❝ Con
Sheer lipstick formula, streaky application. Sigh.

Would definitely not purchase again!



Cheers!!

  2. Omg at first I had good expectations then I saw what it looked like and was like :O...That really sucks..It looks so nice in the tube and stuff. I hate lipsticks that are streaky and weird looking when applied to the lips.

  5. The packaging is SO cute!! But it's a shame that the pigmentation and formula isn't as good as it looks I thought Hello Kitty would actually have better quality control in their makeup...like even if it's not good at least it'll be average :O But I guess not. I think you look amazing in red lips still though :D Maybe try a lip liner underneath so it wouldn't be as blotchy?
