Kat Von D Foiled Love Lipsticks Review and Swatch


Hello Lovelies,

I hope everyone enjoyed Thanksgiving today with their family and loved ones. I did not have turkey today but our Thanksgiving meal is scheduled for Saturday, lol. I'll try to make and effort to take pix of our Thanksgiving feast before tearing it up.

I purchased these Kat Von D lipsticks during the Sephora's VIB sale and they retail for $18.00 each but I got them for 20% off. I was intrigued by these lipsticks because they are supposed to have a metallic finish, thus why they are called "foiled".

Packaging
  • Absolutely beautiful! Metallic silver case with roses etched on it.
  • Net weight is .11 oz or 3 g
Colors
  • There is 6 colors to choose from but I only picked two, Forever & Never and F.T.W.

  • Forever & Never is a nude with a hint of pink and coral. I am so in love with this color! It's very weareable. The finish is frosty/metallic. I know some people hate frosty finishes but as far as I am concerned I don't mind it as long as it doesn't look like my lips have high beams, lol.






  • F.T.W. is a metallic raspberry color. The frostiness in this color is less apparent than Forever & Never. I actually wish it was a little more metallic. You can notice it when you take a close look but from afar, you can barely tell.





Product
  • One thing you might not like about this product is that the formula feels a bit dry. Therefore, during application, it does tug on your skin. I wish it was a tad bit creamier and moisturizing.
  • I don't detect any scents.
  • The colors are very pigmented and long wearing. I get 4+ hours of wear with this lipstick! That's pretty darn good and probably in part due to the drier formula.
  • I experienced a bit of staining with F.T.W. but I suppose that is typical for darker shades.
Conclusion
  • I enjoyed these lipsticks and loved the colors that I picked. For the price, I would expect them to be a bit more moisturizing. Other than that, they do wear well and beautifully. I especially love Forever & Never. My rating would be 9/10.
