sally hansen lipstick in baby pink

Sally Hansen Natural Beauty inspired by Carmindy color comfort lipcolor lipstick
shade: Baby Pink
this is a very creamy lipstick and due to its consistency it does transfer easily and isn't very long lasting. because of this its great to use as a blush because its easy to spread (careful with oily skin though, might break you out, prefect for dry skin!)

as a lipstick, i haven't really liked this, i really wanted to (i actually won this in a giveaway,  the only giveaway i've won, from kati at themakeupdrawer - check her out, she's awesome! - ) but i've never worn this out because unfortunately, this shade did not clash well with my skin tone. it looked very unnaturally pink, disappointing considering the product's name includes "natural beauty" and "color comfort". in lipstick form it looks like a rosy, and a bit pale, wearable pink but it goes on a strong, bright pink once worn.

here's what it looks like on my lips. the colour is unphotoshopped but i cropped out my skin so you can see the lipstick's colour on its own and decided how you like it from there.  it looks a lot less bright after i cropped out my skin. i wasn't wearing any other lip products, i didn't blot it with a tissue, and the photo was taken with flash.

as a blush though, if i dab a little bit on my cheeks and blend it out, its nice and moisturizing and provides a pretty sheer wash of color that looks natural enough. the packaging is good quality and it has a sort of design you'd might expect from the body shop. 

& so those are my thoughts on this lipstick
since its valentines day soon i decided to do a lipstick review. i hope all of you have a special someone to kiss on the 14th!  but if you don't...
