As an end of exam treat a few weeks ago, I bought a product I had wanted to try for a really long time, a Too Faced Melted matte liquid lipstick. I had never tried anything from Too Faced but I had heard such good things about their lipstick range that I took the £19 splurge, hoping the purchase would be worth it. Spoiler alert: it most certainly was.
After oohing and aahing over the shades for a *really long* time, I settled upon the shade Child Star, a stunning dusty rose nude. The collection boasts the most beautiful nude shades that it was difficult to pick, however I felt I would get the most use of Child Star, being a light nude, perfect for everyday, and also quite different to anything I already owned. I hurried home from my local Debenhams to try it and have enjoyed wearing it many times over the past month.
Although I'm a fan of liquid lipsticks, the only ones I have ever tried are from Drugstore brands, so I was intregued to see how a high-end product would compare. I am pleased to say the Too Faced lipstick is absolutely worth the extra money - which makes my bank balance feel a bit better about it! Its applicator is half the size of my liquid lipsticks from the likes of Maybelline and NYX and has an edged tip making it so much more accurate and easy to use.
The quality is so much better than its drugstore alternatives - the lipstick dries to a matte finish straight away and it isn't going to budge after it's on. The staying power of the Too Faced lipsticks is insane!
Another reason I love the Too Faced Melted mattes has to be their packaging. Isn't it just so pretty? I love how you can see the shade of the lipstick through it and it looks and feels luxurious. I could take photos of it all day.
Swatch of the shade:
I would say on the lips, the shade Child Star appears a bit lighter than my swatch where it looks more like the next dark shade, Cool Girl. I ended up choosing Child Star over Cool Girl in the shop because Cool Girl had similarities to lipsticks I already own, such as Velvet Teddy and one of my NYX lip lingeries.
Overall I think the Too Faced Melted matte has to be my favourite liquid lipstick I have ever tried and definitely want to try more shades from their collection in the future. What do you think is the best liquid lipstick? I would love to hear in the comments!
