Japanese Revlon Not Just Nudes 01
I got this lipstick in a Revlon Lucky Bag over a few months ago, and though I'd been wanting a matte nude lipstick for some time, this wasn't as lucky of a score as I'd hoped. I explained what a lucky bag is in a past post, but basically at a super low price you get a bunch of products in a wrapped bag, but you don't know what you are getting. Most of the products were actually awesome, but this was the one fail.

Why was it a fail you ask? Well, you'd think being #01 you'd think it would be a light color, but it is too dark and yellow-toned for my skin. I tried it on, and looked silly. I don't know anyone who would have liked this lipstick, and I hate waste.. so I had an idea. I actually made a deco lipstick palette and mixed another color with it, and now it's quite wearable :) I'll show the palette in another post. Don't mind the lipstick smudges and tip wear in this pic ^^;;
It was really too bad I had to discard the lipstick packaging, because I thought it was really stylish and sleek, and I LOVED the little window on top of the tube so you can see the color. Oh well, at least I didn't waste the product :)
I'll be back with another post showing the palette I made!
::wants to see palette!:: Yeah I havent worn mine that much either, it was a good try but yeah I cant imagine what the other "nudes" look like!
ReplyDeleteMe either! I really don't wanna know how they would look on me if that was the lightest. Posted it up! It's just a practice, (so not very good) so try not to judge me too harshly ^^;;
