Yes, apart from high end brand there are few drugstore that
I just love to buy and among them Faces is a brand which is one of my favorite.
The most affordable and budget friendly drugstore brand can give pretty good
competition to many high end brand in their quality.
And today I am going to share my experience with my recent
buy lipstick from Faces in Velvet matte range.
Price: - Rs.649/- for 4.5g
Here are the picture for the list of ingredients of the lipstick
along with it claim:-
The lipstick comes in black matte packaging with the name of
the brand “faces” written on the black case. The lipstick is 4.5g which I think
a lot and it will go for long way. The texture of the lipstick is very smooth
and so it glide smoothly on lips. The lipstick although claim to be true matte
but on my lips it is satin matte for first hours after that it turn true matte
but transfer a bit. The lipstick fades evenly too on my lips for which it don’t
look odd after fading. The lipstick is moisturizing one but it don’t hydrate
your lips so proper exfoliation and moisturisation is necessary before applying
the lipstick.
Coming to the shade, well I was looking for some neutral
shades as I have enough of pinks and reds and so I wanted something that I can
wear daytime without looking doll up and Faces “I Do” lipstick is just perfect
for day wear. It is beautiful neutral shade which I think can be the nearest
dupe of Mac lipstick “Mehr”. I am now using it every single day as I just love
the color and it really brighten up face with minimal makeup or goes really
well with my Smokey eyes look too.
Here is the swatch of both lipsticks together.
And here i used the lipstick faces "i do" on my upper lips and Mac cosmetics lipstick "Mehr" on lower lips.
And finally my lip swatches with the lipstick "i do"

I love faces lipstick and according to me I think the way every
drugstore increasing their prices it is now hard to buy drugstore too whereas
Faces cosmetics have few products which are still easy to pocket and yes the
quality is much more better than many drugstore brands.
So did you tried the velvet matte rage from Faces? Which one
is your favorite?
Note: " the lips swatches are taken on different lights so you might found different in different pictures and on you too. We bloggers always try our level best to come up with best shots and my pics might be cropped but i stop editing them as i think it is better to show you how it actually look on me rather than making the lipstick swatches look pretty. Although hand swatches of lipsticks are always different when you apply on lips"

Wow!! You look ultra glam as usual ^_^ Need to check this shade out! Btw, the lip swatches look lighter than wrist ones.... must be because of light na?
