ColourPop x Rudolph I Think You're Cute Lip Duo Review & Swatches
I Think You're Cute
ColourPop I Think You’re Cute Lip Duo ($16.00 for 0.145 oz.) is a new, limited edition beige lip duo that included a darker beige lipstick with a cream lipstick and a slightly darker beige lip liner. The two products were pigmented and wore well, though the liner could emphasize lip texture a bit if used for more than just lining the edges of one’s lips.

Clarice
Clarice is a medium-dark beige with subtle, warm undertones and a cream finish. It had mostly opaque color coverage, which adhered evenly and smoothly across my lips without tugging but had a touch of product that settled into my deeper lip lines. Thankfully, it wasn’t noticeable from a normal viewing distance. It lasted well for four hours and was lightly hydrating.

Formula Overview
$10.00/0.12 oz. - $83.33 Per Ounce
The formula that is supposed to be a "creamy-matte" that "glides on like butter, doesn't feather or bleed, and lasts so long you'll forget you're even wearing it." The majority of the shades were quite pigmented with full color payoff in a single stroke with a few in the more semi-opaque coverage range.
The texture was, on average, smooth, lightly creamy, and not too thick or too thin, so there was no tugging during application but the color didn't feel slippery while worn, which made them easier to apply straight from the tube and low-maintenance on the lips.
They tend to dry and wear down to a soft matte finish within one to three hours of wear, and while they are very lightweight on, they hug the lips more as they become more matte (compared to initial feel). The wear time has been between four and six hours for most shades, and most shades were non-drying to lightly hydrating. They were vanilla-scented but had no discernible taste.

Clarice
LELimited Edition. $10.00.
Clarice
Clarice is a darker, rosy beige with neutral undertones and a flat, matte finish. The pencil had slight waxiness to it, which helped it glide across my lips comfortably along the edges, though it was a little thin and more prone to emphasizing lip texture when used to fill in my lip color. It had opaque color coverage in one stroke, which stayed on well for five hours and felt non-drying.

- Bite Beauty #008 (P, $18.00) is lighter, warmer (80% similar).

Going in my cart! And I don’t even celebrate Christmas, but I love the matte beige shade of this. I’m going to check a side by side against MAC Spirit and PML She’s Heaven.
What an underwhelming shades these are! I was expecting something nice, bright and red….
