Stiks Cosmetiks - Daisy Reviews (Soph) ♡

Lipsticks or lipstiks? Cosmetics or cosmetiks? Stiks Cosmetiks may have just had me wondering about the next few lipsticks I purchase...

Stiks Cosmetiks are have not only recently become renowned for their unique name but also line of lipsticks, or in this case, lipstiks. The PR team at Stiks Cosmetiks were kind enough to send me two of their most popular shades, Nude and Mauve to test out. Here's how I got on with them...

Stiks Cosmetiks go by the rule of "Flip it open, apply, click it shut', a simplistic application routine for even the most basic beginners. One of the noticeable differences about this product is the simple but versatile packaging and names of each shade. The product does what it says on the website without any unnecessary extras, making it value for money and what I said at the start - perfect for beginners.

Mauve - Comparable to one of my favourite lipsticks of all time, (MAC Rebel) Mauve created a strong but steady autumnal colour on my lips without the hot pink hues and undertones of Rebel. I was pleasantly surprised by the staying powder of this formula as I saw no movement or bleeding of colour - even when I had something to eat or drink. For a brand that is sadly not shouted from the roofs about, this lipstick has made its way up to my top shelf along with my beloved Too Faced Melted Lipsticks. This shade will surely be used over and over throughout the colder seasons as I believe it works well with a golden or smoky eye look (e.g use of my Naked Smoky Palette). Well done Stiks!

Nude - Unfortunately I'm not as fond of this one as Mauve, but it doesn't mean that its not a perfect match for almost any look. Unlike Mauve I found the application wasn't as smooth on the lips and took a bit more build up to achieve the colour I desired. The shade has some lovely undertones with the tiniest bit of shimmer and has looked great when used both on myself and other people. If I'm completely honest this shade isn't worth the £15 price tag, but that doesn't mean you should get your hands on some of the other beauties!

Overall I've been pleased with these lipsticks and especially Mauve is value for money. the sleek, smooth packaging could easily fit in a makeup bag, pocket or purse! The range has recently been extended including shades such as 'Rose', how am I supposed to resist not ordering anymore?
