Urban Apothecary


Urban Apothecary Kiss & Tell Lipstick

Royal
I love it!!!
Nice red, DEEP & dark (not color on this page).
Goes on smoothly, moisturizing, semi-matte finish.
The color LASTS. I put it on about 7 am, it is 11 am & I am still colorful--2 drinks & breakfast later!
Smells like lipstick, but I can live with that.

Urban Apothecary Luxe Cream Liner

Urban Apothecary
Luxe Cream Liner
Midnight Opal

I am a big fan of cream eyeliner, so I was stoked to test Urban Apothecary's.
Midnight Opal is a dark navy with a very slight shimmer. It's a great alternative to black for more casual looks (sometimes black is just too intense, KWIM?). Easy application, long wearing and once set (give it a minute or two), non-smudge. I noticed a little flaking during application, but it cleaned up easily. My only bit of advice to UA would be to make it a little more moist/creamier to nix the flaking.
I'd love to compare the color with Smashbox's Picasso, which I believe would be a lighter, brighter blue.
