I’m starting a new series, yay! This one is very fitting for me, because you know I love ORANGE! Also, since Pantone‘s color of the year is Tangerine Tango, it’s a trendy little color. I don’t discriminate on shades: from coral to carrot, it’s all orange! I’ll be posting anything orange: from beauty, to clothing, to purses, to food. I have been obsessed with Pinterest lately, so I’ve been finding a lot of fun stuff! I will try to do every Tuesday, but of course, things happen!
For my first Tangerine Tuesday I thought it would be clever to post my swatches of Sephora + Pantone’s Color of The Year Lipstick in Tangerine Tango. Unfortunately, this is the only piece from this collection that I picked up, but I still love all of the other products– they look awesome. Actually, one of my instructors at FIDM worked on this line, which was cool to hear about. They will be launching collections throughout the year that suit seasons and different color palettes!
This lipstick, a seemingly whopping $18- has a lot of added fancy features that a beauty junkie like me would adore. The packaging is so sturdy and very cool. I’m keeping it because I love it so much. To some it may be wasteful, though. The actual lipstick tube itself is a very heavy-feeling metal. The lipstick closes magnetically! This was my first magnetized lipstick, and I’ve gotta say- it’s cool!
The lipstick itself is a pretty shade of tangerine-coral. It’s not as orange as I like my oranges, but I still love the novelty of it. I love the custom and different molding they used for the lipstick bullet-I wonder what their inspiration was for that. Regardless, it’s a beautiful lipstick.
I find that this lipstick is meant to be a hydrating and sheer formula, which it is. The sheerness of it makes it wearable for all occasions and all types of people. I swatched it on my hand to show the sheerness of it, but it is buildable. I think my swatch may be a tad-bit darker than what it really looks like. No lip swatch for this one, maybe I’ll do one in the future. I don’t like to do many lip swatches, but I’m feeling that it is necessary to show the real swatches of products. Anyways, not I’m turning into a rambly blogger.
If you want to pick this lipstick up, find it online or in Sephora stores for $18. It’s currently sold out online, but Sephora always restocks!
What do you think of this beauty? I approve!
