Accessorize Lipstick Review and Swatches!

 I can't say I've ever tried any sort of makeup from accessorize before, and to be quite honest..I wasn't fully aware that they made lipstick! Anyway..

 There were a really wide variety of  light dark and neutral shades to choose from but since I've been looking for a deep berry toned lipstick for a long time I went with Shade 6-PASSIONATE


In my opinion, the packaging that this lipstick comes in is so lovely, the label is the original accessorize logo with the cute little crown, but I think the cute floral outside wrapping is a cute little touch- really different against the typical black packaging of regular lipsticks! The one down side to the packaging however is the fact the whole tube is made from cardboard- which I can see getting bashed a bit in the depths of my makeup bag! But that really is the one critique that I have regarding the general appearance
 of the lipstick. 





Before you all run and hide..the lipstick appears MUCH darker in the tube! I swatched the lipstick with the tester in the shop and loved it..got home opened it up, and really did get a shock! But once I had opened the lipstick and swatched it once more with a little bit of blending out, all was well again! I do adore this new lipstick..I think it's going to be my new 'go to' bold statement for my lips. It is quite a dark colour once on..so I would choose wisely regarding eye makeup and in particular, the tone and shimmers in face makeup. So far I have found this colour to work really well with a muted pink blush but I'm sure it would work to with a hint of golden bronzer to the cheeks! 

I don't find this lipstick drying at all, but I do always add my coco butter lip balm before any lipstick or lip gloss application. I find with darker colours, this is a must to ensure that the colour is saturated on the lips, and doesn't dry up close to the edges or not appear at all in the center of the lip.


I personally think this colour will work better with lighter skin tones, as it really is a dark berry/plum purple colour. 

I do prefer the colour once blended, and as you can see from the swatch the lipstick is blissfully smooth and a pleasure to wear on the lips! The formula really isn't drying at all and has a muted sheen finish.
On a whole I really do love this lipstick, and would highly recommend it for anyone who either loves a bold, dark lip colour or to anyone who's feeling a little daring and wants to try out a new look! This lipstick was £5.00 from accessorize itself, so a lovely little, affordable change to your everyday makeup look!
