Hailed as the ‘vegeterian lipsticks‘, Karen Murrell lipsticks don’t contain any nasties yet are as equally as pigmented and easy to use as regular lipstick.
I have been fortunate enough to be given a couple of her lipsticks to try out and all of which will be or are already my staple colours for summer. My favourite has to be Scarlett Blaze , I love deep reds just to add a bit of drama to everyday make up.
Notable Ingredients:
Avocado Oil: to provide moisture, nourishment and hydration
Cinnamon: for fuller and plumper lips
Evening Primrose Oil: To soothe and moisturise
Carnauba Wax: Ensure hard-wearing due to it’s high melting point.
Comparing these lipsticks to other commercial lipsticks such as M.A.C, Revlon and Dior.
These are similarly priced to Revlon lipsticks and definitely cheaper than the other brands above. Scarlett Blaze being a darker colour is very pigmented and doesn’t need many reapplications. The lighter colours such as the Carnation Mist and Sandstorm are less pigmented compared with some heavy staining lipsticks such produced by M.A.C. They are all very moisturising upon application and the lighter colours can easily be used as a lip balm with a pop of colour. They are not as long wear as M.A.C lipsticks but I’d rather reapply the lipstick a few times a day and know that I’m not putting on anything bad on my lips than to have to scrub off lippy with ample amounts of make up remover. It is honestly very similar to the Dior lipsticks I have minus the price. With the new colours brought out for this summer, I’d definitely recommend getting one or a few of these lippys.
Price Factor:
They are about $30 dollars and are available at selected pharmacies and health food shops. I have the new range of Karen Murrell lipsticks at my work and have been eying a lot of the colours and was so fortunate to have a few of these sent to me for review! They are also available online on the Karen Murrell Website.
In a nutshell:
These Karen Murrell lipsticks are a must have or must try for this summer. They come in a variety of bright and vibrant colours varying from browns, magentas to reds. They contain no nasties and are so affordable compared with so many other brands.
