Review: Max Factor Colour Elixir Lipstick in 'Mulberry'

 

As some of you might know, I got this lipstick a few months ago when I was in Belfast, and it is the only Max Factor product that I own. I've only really started using it lately, and I like it a lot; it's a really nice berry colour for autumn and winter, and I think that it would suit a lot of skin tones. The lipstick is quite moisturising (always a big thing for me, because I have dry lips) and relatively sheer . It also has a really unusual sort of metallic sheen to it that isn't really showing up in the pictures. I think the best feature of this lipstick is how long it lasts, it reminds me of a stain. I literally wore it all day, and had to touch it up once.
The lipstick costs about € 11, which in my opinion is a bit overpriced. It's a nice lipstick, but you can get similar things from MUA or the Natural Collection for much less money; and it just isn't as good some of my favourites, like Revlon or Mac, when I can justify the price.
But if that's not a problem for you, or there's an offer on (I got mine on an offer, in case you were wondering); or you're just on the market for a very long lasting lipstick, then by all means go for it! :)
