Review & Swatches: BeYu Cosmetics | Lipsticks*
Read post
As you might have seen on my page, earlier this month I
had the opportunity to meet and get my makeup done by Tom Strohmetz who is the official
makeup artist and international trainer from BeYu. Before the session started,
Tom presented me with a brief summary of the brand.
BeYu was launched in 1999 and it is part of the
ARTDECO cosmetic group. Their products are made of high quality European ingredients
and products are also scientifically tested for compatibility and application
thus making them dermatologically approved for sensitive skin and also ophthalmological
approved for sensitive eyes. Their products are also paraben free and are not
tested on animals.
Recently, I managed to get my hands on some of their
cosmetics and I thought it would be a great idea to divide them into different instalments
and review their products. So let’s start with the first review!
1.
Pure Colour and Stay Lipstick in No. 218 – Pink Hibiscus
First of all, this lipstick is extremely long lasting
and extremely pigmented. It took me a while to remove it from my lips and even
when I swatched it on my hand. It has a matte finish without making your lips
feel dry and it does not highlight any lines (believe me, my lips are
constantly cracked and dry and this applied fantastically as you can see). It
is made out of natural waxes thus giving you a smooth and even application. Its packaging is black thus making it very
sleek and chic. This shade is part of the Honolulu Happiness Spring/Summer 2016
range. Although I’m not one to usually wear bright colours, I’m willing to try
something out of my comfort zone so I’m already seeing it being a great colour
for next Spring.
2. Star Lipstick in No. 31 –
Nude Touch
This shade is a tad too light for me however it’s a
beautiful nude – it’s not too pink and not too brown. Despite the fact that I
believe that it’s slightly too light for me, I can still make it work.
It goes beautifully with a dark smokey eye plus one can use it on top of
another lipstick to lighten and give a nice sheen. Its texture is very buttery
and nourishing. The packaging of this lipstick is different from the rest of
the Star Lipsticks due to it being part of the Summer 2014 Camouflair Limited
Edition Collection.
3. Star Lipstick in No. 152 –
Naked Plum
This has to be my favourite one! It’s a strong plum red
with a soft gloss. Its soft texture makes the lipstick very smooth to apply and
it settles beautifully on the lips without sinking into any fine lines. It has a
very nourishing effect on the lips which is immediately obvious upon applying. It
has a nice scent and comes in gorgeous silver packaging. I already know that this
will be one of my go-to shades this Fall!
