Topshop Sheer Lip in Applause | Review

Thursday, June 25, 2015

Until recently I was a Topshop Makeup virgin and then for my birthday I received 2 items. A eyeshadow palette and the Sheer Lip Lipstick in Applause.

I love the packaging on these lipsticks a slimline matte black bullet with shiny black writing making the product look very sleek.

What Topshop have to say about their product

An ultra-moisturising, balmy finish lipstick with sheer to medium coverage and glossy finish. The sheer finish creates a natural looking stain or can be layered for more vibrant colour. Creamy and smoothing, the Sheer Lip is totally versatile; perfect as a glossy topcoat over lipstick or lip pencil, or worn alone for an easy balm finish.

I was actually quite impressed with the colour payoff on this lip product described by words like 'sheer' and 'Balmy' I didn't have much hope on the long-lasting and pigmentation side but I have to admit I was wrong.

Applause Is a gorgeous bright fuchsia pink which glides across the lip beautifully its formula is very buttery and leaves your lips instantly feeling hydrated. Wear time I have had a good 3 and half hours wear out of this before it started to fade which for something so glossy and buttery I think is really good going.

On applying the product feels thick and creamy but once on it lovely and lightweight and not at all sticky.

Overall I think this lip product is a brilliant so much better payoff than a normal tinted lip balm but still as hydrating. I will definitely be looking at the other colours and looking at the website looks like they are now in the sale here.

Have you tried any of the other colours? is the payoff as good?

Thanks
