Ever Bilena Matte Lipstick in Scarlet

My love for red lipstick has again taken over my makeup kit. This is my very first matte red lipstick so it holds a special place in my heart.♥ After I fell in love with Ever Bilena's Matte Lipstick in Off Beat Pink, I knew right then and there that a red one was on the way! I still can't get over the fact that this just goes for P145.00 a pop. Local makeup sure has stepped up their game!

Ever Bilena Matte Lipstick in Scarlet

Unlike Off Beat Pink, the cap of Scarlet houses lipstick in the same shade.

Gorgeous red orange color

Swatch

Scarlet is definitely not your ordinary red lipstick. It's matte but not drying so I can skip the lip balm underneath. It's so pigmented, and the color payoff is just beautiful. It kind of reminds me of MAC's Lady Danger based on the swatches I've seen in other beauty blogs. Bottom line is, this lipstick looks and ought to be more expensive than it is (but thank God it's not!).

When worn

I can rock barely there makeup all over if I wear Scarlet. It can make me look glammed up even on my lazy days! How about you, like it or leave it? Love it, I say!

Love,
Helen
