[Review] Too Cool For School Hot Girl Lip Sticker in #3 Lady Salmon

Hello~
I've been so far behind on my reviews that I got a total headache figuring which one I should do a review on. Aaaaaand, it has been decided:

Too Cool For School Hot Girl Lip Sticker in #3 Lady Salmon

So, I got it because I wanted a peachy coral color for CNY (eventhough I don't celebrate cny) haha
But my expectation went downhill because when it came, it was more of a pink coral than peach.
However, it did not entirely disappoint me. :3

shorter than my index finger (though my fingers are longer than average)

Packaging

It comes in a small box which I (being quite geniusly forgetful) unfortunately forgot to take pictures of and the sky turned kinda gloomy so I decided to just leave it. (sorry if anyone is looking for the ingredient list or something)  
Just like the lipstick case, the box is embellished with yellow tartan covering which I find very attractive and easier to look for since it is yellow and all that. 

Size

It is definitely smaller than your average lipsticks I must say, so it is easier to carry but very hard to find if you just chuck it into your bag compare to putting it inside a smaller compartment. Happens all the time~~


^ Compared to the Maybelline Matte for scale.

Colour


As I have stated earlier, the colour is more pinkish coral. It does get a teeny weeny bit brighter if you apply more layers but 2 layers would probably be enough :)

1. Bare lips (exfoliated and balmed) lol
2 and 3. Right and Left respectively with somewhat different lighting~ 

As you can see, it leans more to pink than peach~ 
The colour is almost similar to the advertised photo~ almost~ 

Staying Power

It stays for around ~3 hours with eating and drinking but the colour will fade if you eat greasy food. 
A bit of shine when first applied but becomes almost matte after some time and leaves a tint on your lips ( I appreciate that ) :) 
You need to exfoliate your lips nicely before you apply it though, it tends to make your lip cracks and dryness more visible. Always keep a lip balm handy~ 

Overall, I like it even if it was not exactly the colour I wanted. 
Would I buy it again? Maybe :)) 

I bought mine from Roseroseshop during a sale~ 

Hope you guys enjoy the review~ 
Stay happy and stay tuned :) xx
