Shade:  Strawberry Red is a bright pink shade which has reddish undertones. Somehow this time most of my shades from this Kiko haul have been shades that are between red and pink. This shade looks more of pink in the daytime and tends to lean over to being red in the nights. It is a very pretty daytime shade and sober enough to wear for professional scenario. This shade will look very pretty on fair skin. There are no shimmers in it. Although it is meant to be matte, it does not settle to being completely matte, but at the same time is it not overtly glossy or creamy looking either.

Texture and Pigmentation: Strawberry Red is super creamy in texture. It is buttery soft, but not soft enough to break. It glides on the lips with extreme ease with absolutely no tugging or pulling. Since it is creamy, it will crumble on lips that have not been exfoliated. Also, it is very hydrating, but I still use lip balm beneath. Pigmentation is amazing; just one swipe and you will get the true shade on the lips. There isn’t much difference in single and multiple swipes. Also layering does not make it look uneven or heavy. It feels very light on the lips. It will also help cover pigmented lips due to its strong and bright color.

Lasting Power:  This shade lasts for around 5-6 hours. It fades a bit with munching and meals, but does not transfer much to cutlery. I had to use a makeup remover to get rid of it completely. It is not completely waterproof but only water wont help in removing it. It has a slight vanilla smell to it. This one is a super gorgeous shade that I am in love with.
