My Experience:

Shade(023,Chestnut): It's a muted brown shade with mauvy/red undertones...love it:)
Suitable for all skin tones.

Packaging:
•  The lipstick comes in a plastic black-coloured tube,GOSH is written on the lid of the tube
•  Shade-name and number are mentioned at the bottom of the lipstick-tube on a sticker
•  The sticker is colour-coded and matches the lipstick-shade(more or less...true)
•  The packaging is sturdy and travel-friendly
•  Light-weight tube
•  Details like weight and type of lipstick are also mentioned at the bottom(sticker) of the lipstick-tube

Formula & Texture:

• Hyaluronic has been used in the lipsticks in this collection...awesome
• The lipstick is called the Velvet Touch Matt lipstick and has a creamy matte-finish(may be because of beeswax, hyaluronic acid)
• The lipstick is very pigmented and glides on smoothly on the lips
• Highly pigmented,in one swipe we get full colour-payoff
• Has very mild vanilla-fragrance


Benfits and importance of Hyaluronic acid:

• Hyaluronic acid is also used as a lip filler in plastic surgery
• Some people apply hyaluronic acid to the skin for healing wounds, burns, skin ulcers, and as a moisturizer
• There is also a lot of interest in using hyaluronic acid to prevent the effects of aging

Swatch:

Effective and worth?
Yes

• Firstly,the brand is cruelty-free and all the products are Paraban free...really cool
• Very comfortable on lips.Need to swipe two to three times to get an intense colour payoff.It can be     toned down and used as MLBB shade as well! Hides lip pigmentation completely.
• Keeps lips moisturized i.e.Hyaluronic acid keeps lips hydrated and smooth
• This lipstick doesn't enhance dry patches on the lips
• The lipstick doesn't bleed,flake or sit into the lip's fine-lines
• It does not stain the lips and wears-off evenly!
• The lipstick has a wear time of around 3 to 4 hours(max)
• Need to do a touch-up after meals as the lipstick fades away evenly.Re-application of the product is easy and the product sits smoothly on the lips

Con:
Nothing

Will I re-purchase?
Yes,I love it so much.It's an amazing shade that can be worn on a daily basis.Very impressed.It looks dark in the tube , but , when applied on the lips it looks muted brown-red kind of shade.Perfect.Love it. Do check this shade out girls!

I highly recommend this lipstick and do check out Velvet Touch Matt lipstick-collection
as there are nice shades out there.

Rating : 5/5

Tip:
Exfoliate your lips before wearing any lipstick specially matte lipsticks else the lipstick will cling to the dry patches on the lips!
