Review + Swatches: Silkygirl I'm Matte Lipcolor

Mother's Day is coming up! I know we all can't go out to shop just yet, but we always have online shopping. 😉 Silkygirl is having a month-long sale at Lazada (up to 25% off on selected items).
 
SILKYGIRL I'M MATTE LIPCOLOR

DESCRIPTION & BENEFITS:
  • A rich lipcolor payoff with superior adherence on lips, yet still remaining lightweight for a comfortable wear.
  • Enriched with Cotton Seed Oil, Shea Butter and Rice Bran extract to keep lips moisturized and smooth.
  • Each lipstick casing comes with an empowering statement (statements are selected randomly).
  • Enriched with Vitamin E and Papaya Extract
  • Paraben-free/Carmine-free
  • Fragrance-free
 

Each lipstick is sealed upon purchase. On the wrapper are important information such as ingredients and manufacturing date. Silkygirl I'm Matte Lipcolor is not tested on animals, and its good for 24 months upon opening. Each bullet contains 3.6g of product in it.

Shades (left to right):
01 Savvy, 02 Pretty, 03 Sunny, 04 Foxy, 05 Earthy
06 Racy, 07 Witty, 08 Spunky, 09 Fiery, 10 Edgy

While I do find the black tube packaging simple, the empowering statements are a nice touch as you can get one that matches your personality. It reminds you of who you are. ❤

SWATCHES:
 

PROS:
  • Has a creamy matte finish
  • Glides on very smoothly due to its lip nourishing ingredients
  • Will NEVER dry out your lips
  • Feels very lightweight
  • Free from animal testing, carmine, fragrance, and parabens  
  • Smells like vanilla despite being labelled as fragrance-free
  • With empowering messages on each tube
  • Fades gracefully, leaves a hint of tint on the lips
  • Comes in 10 shades

CONS:
  • Some shades look similar when worn
  • The light shades (particularly 01 Savvy, 02 Pretty, and 03 Sunny) all have a very strong yellow base, are slightly patchy, and aren't very pigmented. You will need multiple swipes to get full coverage.
  • Two out of ten lipstick bullets were damaged when I got them. The bullet of 04 Foxy has reached the cap, hence the bump. While the bullet of 05 Earthy looks "taller" on the group shot because the base is not rooted to the lipstick holder, making it wobbly.

My favorite shades from this collection are 08 Spunky (a mauve shade that looks really natural) and 05 Earthy (a flattering brown that should be named "Spice"). 💋
PRICE: PHP 350
Available at Lazada
