Faces Canada Glam On Lipstick in Shade Gothica
So, I finally bought my second black lipstick and I’m super excited to review it. This one is from Faces Canada (who would’ve thought?), a normal drugstore makeup brand selling black lip color!
The packaging is very regular, sand grey/black lipstick case, classic. This lip color is perfect for Halloween makeup. I wore it for a Goth concert recently and I absolutely love it. I expected this lip color to be opaque, but it turned out slightly translucent, I need to swipe it 3 times to get it perfectly opaque, but then again, it tends to fade away to translucent. It stays better with a lip primer.
I expected this lipstick to taste funky since its black in color, you know, the whole judging-a-book-by-its-cover thing, but it actually tastes pretty good and smells good too, just like berries, very yummy. This lip color stains the lips slightly, so you’ll have to use an eye and lip makeup remover to take it off. It doesn’t stain too much when applied over the lip primer as a base. It’s a little on the glossy side, but not too glossy which I love.
Overall, this isn’t one of my favorite black lipsticks, it isn’t as opaque as my previous one. However, the fact that it’s a drugstore brand and available so easily got me real excited.
Price:
Rs. 499 for 4 gm.

Rating:

Would I Repurchase Faces Canada Glam On Lipstick in Shade #Gothica?
