Sugarpill Liquid Lip Color in Doll Up

March 16, 2020 | Beauty, Sugarpill | 21 Comments »

Every time I see a new Sugarpill sparkle infused matte lipstick I get excited thinking I’m going to get another Trinket. I absolutely love their lipsticks and their sparkle infused mattes are my favorite! So of course I would buy Doll Up.

Sugarpill Liquid Lip Color in Doll Up is described as a rose with baby blue and gold sparkles. I did have to build up my swatch quite a bit to get the color to show. I’m not sure if I received a bad batch or what, but this thing was completely dried out. After lots of work I was able to get it to apply somewhat evenly on my lips. However, it was very uncomfortable. It was dry and gritty. The shade itself is absolutely beautiful, but unfortunately it’s nothing like the other sparkle infused mattes I have tried. You can see Sugarpill Liquid Lip Color in Doll Up in action below.

Overall, I’d have to say that I’m pretty disappointed in this shade. Which is a shame because it’s so pretty! But for $18.00 I expect to get at least a few uses out of it. However, with the last 2 shades I’ve tried I was barely able to get just one use. It has honestly put me off of trying more shades. And I had my eye on a few of the newer ones.

Have you tried any of Sugarpill’s sparkle infused matte shades? What are your thoughts?

Sugarpill Liquid Lip Color in Hijinx

February 11, 2019 | Beauty, Sugarpill | 12 Comments »

With Valentine’s Day just a few days away I’ve been busy getting orders out. I’ve also been experimenting quite a bit so that’s been taking up a lot of my time. I forgot just how much work it can be. But it’s a lot of fun and I really have missed it. I’ve been thinking of sharing some photos of some of my treats here on Midwest Glam. Would anyone be interested in seeing some cute desserts?

A few weeks ago I talked about how much I loved the Sugarpill Liquid Lip Color in Vertigo. Today I will be talking about Hijinx. Hijinx is described as a deep berry infused with multidimensional teal sparkles. It swatched and applied nicely. Once it dried down I rubbed my lips together to bring out those sparkles and boy did it pop! I thought Vertigo was really pretty with the teal sparkles, but Hijinx really steals the show. I wore it with a few different looks, but my favorite so far is paring it with the Natasha Denona Mini Lila Eyeshadow Palette. That’s a look I’ll have to recreate again for sure! You can see them both in action below.

Overall, Hijinx was everything I expected and more! It’s a gorgeous shade that’s bold yet still very wearable. It did last quite a while, but you may need to touch up after eating and drinking. I’ll be reaching for Hijinx often. And speaking of Valentine’s Day, wouldn’t Hijinx make for the most perfect Valentine lip?

What do you think of Vertigo and Hijinx? Which one is your favorite?

Sugarpill Liquid Lip Color in Vertigo

January 24, 2019 | Beauty, Sugarpill | 2 Comments »

I really love Sugarpill’s sparkly matte lipsticks. They really are my favorites. I really wanted to get their Halloween shades, but after seeing a few reviews I decided to skip them. I knew something newer and better would come along. And that it did.

Sugarpill launched 3 new sparkle-infused matte Liquid Lip Colors in the shades Hijinx, Sub-Zero, and Vertigo. I was tempted to buy all 3, but I wasn’t sure if I could pull off the blackened navy blue. Hijinx and Vertigo were more my style. Today I will be talking about Vertigo.

Vertigo is described as a muted smokey purple infused with multidimensional teal sparkle. You can probably tell from my swatch that the sparkle is visible this time around. And it looks stunning! Vertigo is very pigmented. It was a little watery compared to some of my other Sugarpill lipsticks. But I didn’t experience any issues with application. In fact it applied nice and evenly. Once it dried down I just rubbed my lips together and bam! Sparkles! It also makes for a comfortable wear. I find their lipsticks to be fairly long lasting, but you may need to touch up after eating.

After a while the teal sparkles really took over and my lipstick looked a little more blue. I wasn’t mad at it. In fact it got me thinking that maybe… just maybe I can pull off Sub-Zero after all. But for now you can see Vertigo in action below.

Overall, Vertigo is a winner in my book! It’s incredibly beautiful and I got so many compliments when I wore it out. It’s a very unique shade. It gives me some strong mermaid vibes.

What do you think of Vertigo? Am I the only one who thinks of mermaids when I see it?
