LORAC Alter Ego Lipstick in Minimalist, which is described as a deep rose, is a gorgeous lipstick with an enviable formula. The richly pigmented matte lipstick glides across the lips effortlessly, deposits color evenly, and it neither bleeds, nor settles into lip lines. The antioxidant-rich formula is long-wearing, comfortable on the lips, and I did not find it in the least bit drying. It can be built up for maximum opacity, or sheered out for a light veil of cover (both show in the swatch below)– either way it is an infinitely wearable and flattering shade with a beautiful finish. I tend not to be drawn to matte lipsticks since so many of them tend to look very flat and can both be, and appear, drying– but I do not find this to be the case with this particular lipstick.

Isn't it pretty?!
DeleteThis look gorgeous! I love Lorac shadows, but I have yet to try their lipsticks.

It really is such a pretty shade. I love LORAC shadows as well, and definitely think that their lipsticks are worth trying too!
DeletePretty shade when worn lightly. Personally I'm anxiously awaiting matte lips to leave town.
ReplyDeleteWhich is precisely the way hat I like to wear it. I very seldom wear matte lipsticks because I find so many drying, but I really do like this one.
DeleteOh man... such a gorgeous shade... one of those you can wear lightly for summer and spring and then darker in the winter/fall. Love it.
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly it! I definitely am wearing it lightly right now, but it will be gorgeous worn darker in the fall/winter! This shade would be stunning on you, Honey!
DeleteThis is my kinda shade! I've only used Lorac's eyeshadows and the Pro Matte lipsticks. Got to try this range.
ReplyDeleteThis would be a gorgeous color on you, Renu! It is definitely worth trying!
DeleteThe only alter-ego lipstick I own is in the shade girl next door, and it's a super pale bubblegum pink that looks horrible and applies patchy. The formula of this sounds better though, so I might try another one!
ReplyDeleteWow, I will definitely be sure to avoid that one! It sounds like a color that I would have loved, too! I did not have that experience with this one, thankfully!
DeleteSuch a pretty shade on you!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Babi! It's a very nice shade!
DeleteI love the Lorac Alter Ego Lipsticks! They are so rich and creamy! <3
ReplyDeleteThey really are!
DeleteSuch a perfect shade! I'm always a sucker for a nudey-pink.
ReplyDeleteI am a sucker for this type of shade as well! This one would look gorgeous on you, Bailey!
DeleteThis is a very pretty shade. I have one Alter Ego lipstick but I think I've only ever worn it once LOL! Thats the problem when you are a hoarder I guess ;)
ReplyDeleteIsn't it pretty?! I know just what you mean, I have lots of beautiful lipsticks that barely get worn because I have too many!
DeletePerfect shade all year round! I will have to pick this up, I love Lorac!
ReplyDeleteIt really is a great, and infinitely wearable, shade!
