Chi Chi Lipgloss- Oh Em Gee

Here's a bit about my lipgloss background. At uni, I was nicknamed the Lipgloss Queen. I was known to carry with me a ridiculous amount of lipglosses.
So when I say I love my lipglosses, I'm not kidding.

Firstly, I must give a disclaimer. I love Chi Chi products generally. They are extremely pigmented and dramatic and for someone with a blog named Glitter and Leopard print, you know that's something I look for.
Secondly, it's not even called Lipgloss. It's called "Dramatic lacquer". How freakin cool is that?

Anyway, my favourite is Va Va Voom (the first one)- the color is amazing and I always get a load of compliments.
The others are a bit muted for my taste, but very pretty nonetheless and all have great staying power.
The corally one is very weird with my tanned skin, but it's not the lipgloss's fault. I imagine it'd be very pretty on fairer girls.

  Now please note when I say I can't find the name, that's not its name- I literally lost the sticker on it and I don't know what it's called. If I ever find out, I'll update.

Not all Too Face are created Equal

As you can see by how loved some colours are, not all Too Faced are created equal.



So the first palette is Too Faced Matt Eye and the second is Too Faced Romantic Eye.
The colours are top down:
Day- Tufted Suede
Classic- Velveteen Bunny
Fashion- Fresh Linen
Then;
Chinchilla, Pebbles, Vintage violet, Coffee Bean, London Fog (my favourite) and Midnight.
The colours are matte and have no shimmer so some colours come off a bit chalky (as is the problem for me with the other palette.) The lighter colours don't come off as very pigmented so that's a bit disappointing.

The next palette top down:
Day- Soulmates (very pretty, slight shimmer)
Classic- Kiss the Bride
Fashion- Bouquet Toss
Then;
I do, Cut the cake (very pretty), Honeymoon (my favourite), Un-Veil, First Dance and Ever after.

Again, the lighter colours aren't as pigmented but the colours that you can see are very pretty. Staying power is quite good.
Some colours are a bit of a miss, but overall, I'd purchase again.
What do you guys think?
