LA Colors lipstick Frozen Berries- review and photos *heavy*

Pin It now!

A few weeks ago my hubby needed to do some shopping at TigerDirect (formerly known as Comp USA). I really was not in the mood to see electronics, so I opted to walk around the Dollar General Store which was next door. Here is what I purchased.

LA Colors lipstick- Frozen Berries, in the sunlight
In the store, the shade looked very very purple, as in Batman's Joker purple. I will admit the reason why I bought this shade was because I wanted to own a purple lipstick, since I do not own one. So I thought for a dollar, why not? I was surprised to find out this purple is quite user friendly to wear!

Ok, Lets get to the nitty gritty of this lipstick.

At first, when I applied the lipstick I thought it was light. Once I kept going back and forth, it yielded a nice soft-medium color.  This lipstick felt like a lipbalm, which I do not mind at all. I understand certain lip colors can make people look ill, it is quite the opposite for me. This lipstick actually looked sexy on me! I think it is a perfect color for the season. A pretty safe color, if you ask me.

Wear time? Well, like all the other LA COLORS lip sticks I own, wear time is about the same 3 hours with the usual drinking and snacking.
Lipstick felt like a lipbalm, which I like.
If you are looking for a deep purple, this is not the shade. But if you are looking for an office friendly purple lipstick, this shade it perfect.


**Positives**

Affordable ($1.00 dollar)
Availability
flattering color

*Negatives*

Color is not opaque ( I do not mind this, personally)
Wear time (for some)


Well, here it is! Hope you find this review useful. Weather here is good, but there is no sunlight! That is making difficult for me to catch up on my reviews since I like to provide direct sunlight pictures for reference. We will see... If you have any comments, just comment below.
