Australis Pout Paste

Where I got it: I was sent this product to try and review, but you should be able to find both of these at RRP NZD$16.50 at Farmers, Kmart and selected pharmacies. These have just hit the stores on 1st May 2013!

What I got: This is a tube of Berry Nice Kiss Pout Paste from Australis. It comes in 2 other shades: Pash Me Pink (dark pink colour) and Love Bites (true red colour). This is a super high coverage pigmented lip stain that provides high glossy shine. It claims to have a non sticky, moisture based formula and enriched with anti-oxidants to help with anti-aging. Vegan-friendly and not test of animals!

How I find it: The colour is not what I usually wear. This is a plum/purple colour that is very pigmented and glossy. With a single swipe the super pigmented lip stain/gloss gives full coverage to the lips and a good gloss.

Overall: First of all, this wouldn’t be the first choice of colour that I’d go for. I would’ve went for Love Bites – a true red colour. Secondly, I won’t be wearing this to work because the colour is too intense. You don’t even need lip colour under it! I would wear this kind of intensity/opacity if I’m going to a party, dinner out with friends/husband where I had to dress up. Otherwise I could down-play the opacity by applying small dots to the lips and mix in with a clear lip gloss or a lip balm so it won’t be too punchy.

Photos don’t do its justice for its intensity of colour. It is also more purple/plum in reality (I cannot wait to upgrade my camera/phone to take better pictures)
