Face of Australia Lasting Looks Lip Creme swatches and review

I’ve had these beauties banging about in my handbag for a while, but haven’t gotten around to showing them off until now! Cult Aussie drugstore brand Face of Australia released these excellent lipsticks near the end of last year. The Lasting Looks Lip Cremes are vividly coloured, smooth as butter lip products with hardcore moisturising power, thanks to vitamin E and jojoba oil in the formula. They come in 7 shades, all of which are cute puns on longevity:

Rubies Are Forever is a classic deep shimmery red
For Red-Er & A Day is a sexy bright red that’s pigmented as all get out
Love You Berry Long Time is a bright bold reddish pink
Coral On & On is a sheer peachy orange
Till Plum in the Face is a deep reddish purple that looks a bit gothy on me
For Many a Moon is a gorgeous dusty mauve that’s a polished your-lips-but-better shade on me
Permanently Pink is a lighter muted pink, perfect for paler girls

They come in sleek white and metal packaging that feels very luxe. They’re mildly vanilla scented – very light and inoffensive.

I haven’t swatched them all on my lips, but here are some of my favourites:

They’re in Face of Australia’s permanent line, and a 4 g tube retails for $10.95 – find them at Priceline, Big W and Fashion Addict.
