[Review] Queen Bee Lipstick from Colour Collection

After some months of no makeup reviews, here I am making one at last! And the inspiration that got me writing? This unique Queen Bee lipstick given out by Sample Room! This is one of the Ultimate Wear Lipstick line from Colour Collection. I tried this sample for five days straight to get a feel of the product.

The red of Queen Bee

Queen Bee, a bright red shade that spells power.

The description above is the official statement of the product. It also claims that it lasts for up to 8 hours, unless you eat something oily. It also boasts to be non-drying.

And true enough, the color itself screams 'power'. It is red with an orange hue. Reds such as this shade is perfect for parties! 

 It only took me one swipe for a rich and vibrant color. As for longevity, it stays true to its claim. The color would stay even after 8 hours or more, depending on the food that you eat. On the first day, it lasted for 10 hours, though the color was not as vibrant as the first application. On the next day, it only lasted for four hours because I had adobo for lunch.  It fades as time goes by.

The color flatters me so well that I get a lot of compliments from people. And they can't stop staring at me (or at my lips). Hehehe~ I received a lot of positive remarks: beautiful, suits well, and mesmerized! I really wasn't used to being the center of attention and it did get a little awkward sometimes

And removing it wasn't a hassle, at all. It just came off when I brushed my teeth. But for emergency cases, you would really need a lip and eye makeup remover as ordinary tissue wipes won't take it off completely. 

And the verdict?

Yep, I am so in love with this lippie. I find that this is a rare shade of red that compliments well for me. It is dark enough to be noticed, but not too dark to be intimidating.
