City Girl Beauty Rome & California lippies

Hi guys ! Happy Wednesday . How has your week been ?? 

A little while back while City Girl Beauty had a sale on their Matte Liquid lippies for National Lipstick day - buy one get another one free. I've been super keen to try Jess - a fellow South African blogger - line and knew I had to order and try them. 

I got Rome - a gorgeous pinky nude for myself and Paris (a peachy toned lippie for my mom - so I won't be swatching that one ) and Jess was kind enough to include another shade for me to try - California - a bright orange toned red. 

The applicator is a little doe foot applicator - personally I find this one a little bit harder to use since it is so thin. The lippy smells amazing - like vanilla cupcakes but it's not overpowering once on the lips. The formula is quite mousy so you need a little shake before applying but these lippies has such an amazing staying power - they last amazingly well even after millions of cups of coffee and cupcakes. 

The lippies dry down matte within a minute and will stay budge proof for basically most of your day - which is amazing if you are looking for a long lasting liquid lipstick. Again - this is a super matte formula so it's a little drying but nothing a little lip balm before hand can't sort out. 

The range currently has 6 amazing colours - something to suit every mood and person . Although I'm excited to see her come out with a few more colours in the range soon. 






Swatched here I have Rome (a gorgeous pinky toned nude shade perfect for everyday wear ) - Top shade. And California ( a orange toned red that will be perfect to rock around Christmas time this year - the bottom shade. 

These lippies has such a gorgeous classic look to them which I love . They are also super budget friendly and Proudly South African - and pretty awesome .








Which colour lipstick do you wear day to day ? Do you prefer bold red lips for nude muted tones ?
