Sephora Collection #Lipstories Lipstick 32 Berry-Licious Review

Skin Tone: Medium to Dusky

Hello all,

Hope you all are doing great. Today, I am going to review yet another shade from the Sephora Collection #Lipstories Lipstick range. So, let’s see how ’32 Berry-Licious’ fared.

Price: $8
Product Description:
#LIPSTORIES
This is lipstick for real life, not just ring lights—lipsticks for celebrating the wild adventures, best moments, and magical memories in your life. So grab a shade or four and take your lipstick outside. See you out there!

What it is:
A high-pigment, lightweight lipstick that provides full-coverage color in one swipe. Available in 40 shades and three finishes: matte, cream, and metal.

My Experience with Sephora Collection #Lipstories Lipstick 32 Berry-Licious:

The Sephora Collection #Lipstories Lipstick range offers ultra-affordable bullet lipsticks, which are available in a wide variety of shades and three different finishes – matte, metallic, and cream. Sephora has named these #Lipstories as Sephora aims for you to create your own story across social media using these lipsticks with the hashtag #lipstories.

They feel like these lipstick shades can evoke a certain memory or create a new one, and each of these lipsticks is inspired by a story, adventure, or experience in your life – that has happened or is waiting for you to create. I think that this is a cute idea and a completely affordable one as well, which means you can happily pick up a few shades without breaking the bank.

Packaging:
The packaging is super cute and individualized for each shade.The packaging depicts the stories behind the lipstick shade; for example, a shade called ‘Golden Gate’ has the pictures of gates embossed on the cardboard casing. There is also a color-coded band at the bottom of the lipstick, which depicts the shade of the lipstick. Though the packaging is cute it still feels cheap as the caps are made out of cardboard and the bases are made out of plastic. This does not really bother me as the quality of the lipstick itself is amazing and we can’t ask for more at this price.

Shade:
As I already told you, there are three finishes in this range: matte, cream, and metallic. Depending on which finish you get, either #metal, #matte or #cream is embossed in the side of the lipstick bullet, which is a nice detail. The range offers a whopping array of forty shades, hence there is something for everyone. ’32 Berry-Licious’ is a dark vampy purple-berry shade that comes with the cream finish. This is a nice fall color that will suit all complexions.

Formula:
The formula of this lipstick is amazing. It is super lightweight, comfortable and has a creamy texture that gives an easy, smooth glide across my lips. The pigmentation is incredible and the color is full opaque in a single swipe. There is no particular fragrance or flavour to this lipstick. It applies very well without tugging and pulling. Since it is a cream lipstick it does give a slight sheen to the lips, which looks beautiful.

Staying Power:
Since this is a regular lipstick it lasts for about four to five hours. It transfers onto everything, but it still leaves a stain behind.

These Sephora lipsticks offer an incredible value for money. They give about 4 g of product – which is more than what most lipsticks in the market offer – for a mere $8. This is an incredible find and I really love this collection from Sephora.
