Hydrating, Easy to apply

I had repurchased the Phyto Lip Twist (color 13 poppy) after I completely used up my first one. I confess that I own probably way too many lip sticks than I actually need in recent years. Therefore, it is a rare occurrence for me to completely finish one in full size. (I can name 2 other lip sticks that I completely used up and repurchased: Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution in Amazing Grace, Tom Ford Moisturecore Lip Color in Pipa)

The phyto lip twist is hydrating and easy to apply. For this type of hydrating formula, I think it stays on throughout the day quite well. I would reapply after meals just so that it can look as good as the beginning of the day. however, even without retouching, it still lasts quite well (as long as I don’t blot it with napkins) and fades evenly. I love to carry it in my purse for a quick color on a casual day or touch up over similar tone lip products on the go when my lips feel a bit dry. This color is vibrant with a slight shiny finish. It looks coral-red on me. The formula seems to be somewhat semi-transparent but surprisingly this color covers my naturally very pigmented lips quite well. I had also purchased two more colors since I loved this formula so much, but I don’t think the lighter colors worked so well for me. My skin tone is light to medium (Asian) and my favorite color from this line remains 13 Poppy. I’m planning to purchase one more in Poppy so that I can keep one on my make up desk and one in my purse.

There is one small downside to this product. I feel that the cap sometimes doesn’t stay on very well. Therefore, I keep it in a small zipped bag (one of those gifts from a different cosmetic brand) before placing it in my purse.

Natural, blends well

I have been shopping on beautylish for about 2 years. Always enjoy the fast shipping and very well-protected wrapping inside the package. This product is so wonderful that I decided to provide my first review on beautylish.

For the past year alone, I have collected approximately 15 bronzers and enjoyed different effects from each of them. This bronzer gives the most natural glow (I have light to medium Asian skin), with a very subtle sheen (less than Charlotte Tilbury). If your skin tone is light to medium and if you love a natural bronzer that melts into your skin, you will enjoy this product. It's perfect for everyday work make up, naturally glowing and sophisticated. At the end of the day after 12 hours wear, it's still on my face and remains the most impeccable part of my make up. All the reasons make it my current favorite bronzer.

My other 2 favorites are Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze and Glow & Tom Ford bronzer in Terra.
