Red apple lipstick swatches9/13/2023 It's a well-balanced selection, with two mattes - Porcelain and Brownie Points - and two satin/shimmer shades - Champagne and Twinkle Taupe. I love neutral eyeshadows, so picking this palette was a no-brainer. The Rockin' Cafe Palette includes four shadows and the Z-Palette, which can hold up to nine shadows. Red Apple also sells two-pan palettes and branded magnetic Z-Palettes to hold them. The pans are pretty standard - 26mm - so they'll fit into MAC or other palettes. Eyeshadows are pressed and sold either individually or in palettes. The company's name may include lipstick, but for me, this eye shadow palette is the true standout. Ingredients: Ricinus Communis, Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Oleic/Linoleic/Linolenic Polyglycerides, Copernicia Cerifera (Carnauba) Wax, Cera Alba, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Tocopheryl Acetate from an all natural non gluten source, Prunis Dulcis (Almond), Citrus Tangerina (Tangerine) Peel Oil, Essence of Vanilla, May Contain: Titanium Dioxide, Manganese Violet, Mica, Iron Oxide. From what I can tell, the rest of the lipstick lines are unscented. To me, it's a bit sickly, but the scent doesn't last too long on the lips so it's not completely unmanageable. The Originals Series lipsticks contain tangerine oil and essence of vanilla, and Crush on Me has a sweet, brown sugar smell. My only complaint - and if you're a frequent reader, you'll probably see this coming - is the scent. It wears well, lasts several hours, and fades pretty evenly. I've seen a few complaints about the lipsticks settling into lip lines, but I really haven't had any problems. I prefer to do a once over, sheer wash of color with this lipstick, as building it up can make the sparkle feel a little gritty on the lips and it can start to look frosty. In the swatch, below, it looks like a bright pink, but on the lips, it goes on as a paler shade. It's got a hint of lilac to it and some silver/white shimmer. ![]() On the whole, all the lines are non-toxic and have basically clean ingredients, but some do contain more controversial ingredients like synthetic beeswax (often petroleum-based) and/or retinyl palmitate (linked to cancer.) The color I chose, Crush on Me, is from the Originals Series and contains neither.Ĭrush on me is a great, cool-toned pink. There are no ingredients listed on the packaging but they are listed on the website here.Red Apple has several different lipstick lines, each with a slightly different formula and ingredients. I don't, it's easier for me to just reapply after food, otherwise it lasts great. If you do want to improve longevity, you need to follow the steps of applying, blotting, reapplying, blotting. ![]() It does leave a stain behind, but it is not as intense in colour, so I do find myself wanting to reapply after eating/drinking. I prefer this formula to Lovebird, but it doesn't last quiet as long. This lipstick has a bit of a glossy finish and has a faintly sweet scent, I also found this version to be moisturising. If you are one of those people that prefer to have fewer things in your makeup bag, this is your ultimate day to night lippy, just add an extra layer or two and you have super intense colour worthy of a red carpet event. It is a bit of a twist on a classic red and the first layer is a little sheer, which makes it very easy to wear during the day. The colour is absolutely gorgeous and uber flattering.
