I obtained this jaw-dropping shock package deal within the mail from City Decay Cosmetics earlier this week that made me weak within the knees (severely!) — all twenty shades of their new Hello-Fi Shine Extremely Cushion Lip Glosses had been displayed superbly in a brilliant cool stereo impressed packaging with a wide ranging array of colours that might make any make-up lover swoon with hearts of their eyes. As soon as I used to be capable of settle down from the entire pleasure, I acquired straight to photographing, swatching, and testing. From the glossy clear tube to the glosses’ various shimmering and luscious results, they’re lovely to have a look at, however are additionally extremely comfortable and fulfilling to put on.
Isn’t this packaging simply superb?!! That pink lip form is definitely a mirror on the opposite aspect — ugh, so cute!!!
The Hello-Fi Shine Extremely Cushion Lip Glosses ($20.00 every for 7.zero ml) are available in a shocking twenty-color shade vary with 4 finishes: cream, sheer, holographic, and metallic. These glosses have a scrumptious vanilla-mint scent and are infused with vitamin E and peppermint oil to offer a hydrating and cooling end. I really like something minty, so I actually loved the scent and cooling sensation. The peerlessly executed method doesn’t really feel sticky, goopy, or thick, and may be very light-weight and moisturizing. It’s additionally supposed to present a right away plumpness to lips, however since I have already got naturally full lips (shout out to my mother and father for the nice genes!), I didn’t see any noticeable distinction. As well as, although majority of those shades look darkish within the tube, they apply on fairly sheer, so don’t be intimidated by their exterior (aside from Savage and Jawbreaker — they’re the 2 brightest and most pigmented shades). Software was easy because the versatile silicone applicator deposited the proper quantity of colour onto lips and allowed for precision each time (I like to use two coats, so I dip twice into the tube for max protection and shine). General, these glosses are bomb — the sleek texture and hydrating end are superb, they final lengthy, and their extremely luscious shine is tremendous addictive. From delicate to daring, sheer to sparkly, there’s a gloss for each temper and event, pores and skin tone and desire. I’m loving every little thing about this assortment!
Majority of the cream colours have nice pigmentation — they’re not insanely opaque, however they do give good protection and payoff, and are extra saturated than the entire different shades within the line (take a look at Gasoline, Jawbreaker, Beso, Backtalk, Savage, and Snitch).
Whereas all of those glosses may be worn alone or paired with different lip merchandise, the sheer shades are particularly good for layering over lipsticks to boost your lip colour for an additional shiny shine (Midnight Cowgirl and Rapture are so attractive!).
The holographic shades don’t have the rainbow shift to actually make them holo — they’ve extra of an intense iridescent, glittery impact (like a metallic end), therefore, why I didn’t discuss with any of them as holographic in my shade descriptions beneath. Even so, it’s exhausting to not really feel like a magical unicorn princess in such distinctive and exquisite colours like Sweet Flip and SPL.
The metallic lip glosses have a touch of colour to them with mesmerizing shimmers which can be so eye-catching and enjoyable to put on (Gold Mine, Shadowheart, and Huge Bang are stunners!).
