A few months ago I received a press release from IsaDora with all their lipsticks and lipsticks in the new series Sculpt Your Lips. Feels like I'm the last in the beauty world to review these haha! Any of you who have already bought them and tested them yourself? :)
This lip collection is based on the contouring trend and to do contouring (sculpting) on the lips as well and not just the face. With a lip pencil in the same shade, a little, a little darker for a perfect contour and then a glossy, creamy lipstick on the rest of the lips that is a little lighter, the lips look fuller - and still super sharp. You can also paint outside your natural contour for an even more enlarging effect. I myself paint a lot outside :)
IsaDora Sculpting Lipliner Waterproof costs 89 kronor
IsaDora Lip Desire Sculpting Lipstick costs SEK 139
Here you see my lips with the shade Marsala - my favorite!
I have not put every single shade to the test for 100%, but have tested some and here is my review based on that:
sustainability
I think the durability of the lip pen is awesome! The durability of the lipsticks is also great, but creamy lipsticks generally do not hold up as well as carpet when eating and drinking, and the same is true with these. But thanks to a cruel lip pencil, it is super easy to improve as you never have to improve on the sole out of the contours. And it is basically only after eating that it needs to be improved in the middle of the lips, otherwise it sits like a slam!
Feeling & formula
Very creamy and smooth, not sticky, sticky or uncomfortable but feels really soft and comfortable. I have only tested the pen on the whole lips as well, completely without lipstick, but they are a bit too heavy for that, the lips get a bit sticky dry type, so it is more of a contour pencil (which is the point). I would possibly like a little, a little more creamy feeling in the lip pens when applying, but it's small details and a matter of taste :)
Packaging
One of my pens came off immediately, and I experience that the corks do not fit very well and have come loose in the make-up box sometimes when I stuff around and look for other make-up. Is not so gentle either per se but never has that problem with other makeup. In addition to that, I like the design of the products, good shape of the lipstick and the tip of the pencils is easy to paint with!
Results
Super nice, super nice, super nice! The darkest shades are a little harder to get perfect coverage on, as it is almost always with very dark tones, I think, but they are really nice too, it only takes a little more application than the light ones.
Summary
Both the lipsticks and the lipsticks get two thumbs up from me, the lipsticks are not something I would use without lipsticks but the lipsticks are great on their own as well. And affordable too!
Here you see all the shades quickly painted on my arm, the lipstick on the left and the lip pen on the right on each shade. The pen is slightly darker and more matte than the lipstick for a perfect contour that enlarges the lips and works well even for painting outside its actual shape.
I love marsala colors for everything! Lipstick, eye shadow, clothes, shoes, you name it, and hence the shade Marsala is the absolute favorite of these lipsticks!
Which do you think is the most beautiful?
1. I start with the lip pencil and fill in the contours outside my own shape.
2. Put on the lipstick and apply a little on top of the lip pencil too, then ready!
Molkan has made a super nice swatch on the lips with all the shades if you want to see them even more clearly, have a look at her post here!
