Swatches & Review
Yesteday, I posted up some sale items I saw at CVS. From the sale, I purchased four Milani items (I wish I bought more) & News Flash Lip Flash was one of them.
News Flash is a burgundy/dark maroon with pink, violet & blue shimmer.
When News Flash is swatched on the arm, you can see the shimmer, but once it is applied to the lips, the shimmer does not show up as much. It applied on very smoothly, but the first swipe was a bit sheer. After two swipes, it was the perfect maroon color for fall! I really liked that it applied smoothly, but it also applied kind of patchy. I wish these pencils were twist-up because for these, I would need to sharpen them & the product itself is so smooth, it might be kind of hard to not get it all over the sharpener. Overall, I really like this shade. I have been looking for a dark-ish lip color for the cooler weather & this is perfect for it!
With this being 75% off, I picked this up from my local CVS store for $1.99! There are some cons to this, so I probably would not have paid full-price for it, but for $1.99 these are worth it!
What do you think about Milani's Lip Flash? Have you tried them? Are you thinking about picking any of them up from the CVS beauty sale? :)
That's gorgeous. The Lip Flashes were the first thing that called my attention from the sale. Sadly the closest CVS is hours away from me. I hope there are good things left when I'm finally able to go.
