| Milani Color Statement Lipstick in 08 Ruby Valentine |
The Milani site describes this line of lippies as having "True Instant Color. One stroke, full coverage application." That is definitely true! One swipe from the tube and you've got fully opaque coverage with a creamy, lightweight feel. All Color Statement Lipsticks contain Vitamins A, C, and E and are free of parabens. The Color Statement range consists of 28 colors in a variety of finishes, including vinyl, metallic, cream, shimmer, pearl, and matte.

Ruby Valentine is a gorgeous neutral red with a vinyl finish. It's SO comfortable on the lips; it feels light as air and the formula isn't at all drying. This color makes my teeth look super white! If you've been looking for a red that has that effect, I highly recommend picking up this shade. The formula is so creamy and pigmented, a lip brush would be my suggestion for the easiest and most precise application.

Ruby Valentine wore for 4 hours on me before I needed to reapply. Jessica at Beautezine described these lipsticks as smelling like watermelon Jolly Ranchers, which I think is a spot-on description!
The Color Statement Lipstick display at my local CVS always looks like it's recovering from a rash of looting. The last time I was there, they only had seven tubes left!
Have you tried these? What's your favorite drugstore ("drugstar") lipstick? ;)
My Rating: A

Drugstar HAHAHA I like that hahaha!
ReplyDeleteWOWZA that's bright! I haven't tried much from Milani since it's hard to find here, but it's starting to become more available so I should look, right? Right!
It's such a beautiful red :) Milani is a very decent drugstore brand! I love their brow fix!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Shari! I agree - Milani rocks! I've been eyeing that brow fix myself!
ReplyDeleteYou definitely should, Trace! I've yet to meet a Milani product I didn't really, really like. Their Liquif'eye pencil eyeliners work just as well as MAC Technakohls. :D
ReplyDeleteThe scent is okay, but this color is so pretty! I have tried many pinks and purples from them, but not red since I already have so much D:
ReplyDeleteI so rarely wear red lipstick, but this one is the jam! Thanks for stopping by, Lisa! :D
ReplyDeleteI loved the colors that had but REALLY hated the smell. I think I originally bought 4 and returned them all. It does look fantastic on you though!
ReplyDeleteHi girlwonderful! Cute handle! Thank you so much! This is definitely one of those scents that people will either love or hate. I think it would be better if it was a little less noticeable, or smelled like, I don't know...lipstick?! LOL!
