Review: bh Cosmetics Color Lock Long Lasting Matte Lipstick!

Keeping Up With The Matte Trend!

bh Cosmetics always releases products with the cutest packaging! :-) Today I have two of the bh Cosmetics Color Lock Long Lasting Matte Lipsticks to review for you. They retail for $8.95 but normally on sale for 50% off on bhcosmetics.com. I did manage to get them on a great sale which was awesome!

Here's the box they come in... cute huh?! They're said to be a rich, creamy matte lipstick. While being nourishing they are said to stay in place all day... and I completely agree! When they go on they are so smooth and ridiculously pigmented! I had no issues with the color staying on all day, barely any touch ups if any. Just make sure not to make the same mistake I did: I didn't wear a lip liner, just put the lipstick on by itself. The shape of the lipstick makes it difficult to get a precise line so I ended up doing a sloppy job. Concealer helped a ton but the color is so hard to get off! You need makeup remover to remove these... stays on like crazy glue haha.

The packaging is amazing! I love the design, it's a great sturdy plastic. I was most intrigued by the clicking sound it made when you twisted it up! It locks the lipstick into place so you have more security when you apply it... really cool!

Here are some swatches! They are a true matte finish. Doesn't dry you lips at all. They remind me of the Maybelline matte lipsticks but not as creamy to the point that they transfer. They nourish your lips throughout the day but the color doesn't fade at all, amazing! I'm super impressed :-)

*Blissful- a medium berry shade, really different. I love the color because in the light it has a slight shift that makes your lips look so good, a great color!
*Dark Rose- a reddish pink shade, my favorite from the two! Looks so bright and gorgeous on the lips! 

Bottom line: These are a must have if you're loving the matte lip trend! They are not high maintenance like other formulas which is what made me love them so much. They stay put and honestly you don't need to worry about it throughout the day. Just make sure to wear a lip liner just to get that sharp look! The price is very affordable and... I just ordered a few other colors haha. I couldn't help myself, they're that good! :-)

    Btw, I love your lip swatches because your lips always turn out so smooth and the color even. What is your technique? Mind sharing?

    1. Thanks!! I make sure to wear a lip balm for a few minutes before applying a matte lipstick. Oh! If the color isn't perfectly within the lines I use concealer to clean it up a bit haha, hopefully that helps! Thanks for stopping by :-)
