This is an awesome product. It is on the pricey side, like most Stila products. It very moisturizing and lasts. It glides on, it smooth and very pigmented. I just feel that a little more product should be provided though. The absolutely love the packaging. I love the the knock-out label reflects the colour of the lipstick. The packing is gorgeous! Definitely one of the best on the market.

I won this amazing lippie on the Stila Facebook page. I could choose the colour I wanted so opted for Gabrielle which is a nude pink. Nude are my go -to colour for daytime/work as it works well with my skin tone.

My first impressions:

They say you don't get a second chance to make a first impression. Well I was impressed !!!! The packaging is recycled which is a very important for me. The lippie tube is silver in colour with the name Stila going down the side.

When you apply it, it has a mentol scent which is very subtle and there's an ever so slight tingling sensation. When you apply this to your lips it glides on so seamlessly and leaves your lips with a healthy glow and sheen. This is pretty much the best of both worlds for me. I prefer lippies with a hint of gloss.

I've been using this daily and reapply as and when necessary. Its deliciously creamy and a pleasure to use.

It retails for R190 I think.
