I am horrible at
picking foundations and lipsticks at the drugstore. Seems like an easy task for
some but I sometimes managed to pick the worse shades for my complexion. When I
heard Almay’s lipsticks were arranged by complexion, I thought ‘that’s a great
idea!’ I have bought lipsticks that either wash me out or were too bright for
my taste (can I just blame the packaging). There are four ranges to choose from
red, berry, pink and nude. They only offer one color from each family but have
three complexions to choice from: light, light/medium and medium.
I found it very easy
to pick the right shade because most of the work is already done for you. I
purchased red and berry in medium. The red worse about three hours, the berry
lasted maybe two hours. When applied the berry goes on a bit sheer for me but
is a pretty color. The red applied quite the opposite. The lipsticks feel like
a balm and are some what moisturizing. I’ve never tried any Almay products
before these and I really like them.
On Ulta’s website
they retail for $6.99, which isn’t a bad price. I’m debating to pick up the
pink shade. Not that I don’t like them but I ask myself; do I need more
lipsticks? Now only if I could find my perfect shade in drugstore foundation.
