Dose of Colors No Shade & More Creamer Please Desi x Katy Lipsticks Reviews, Photos, Swatches
No Shade
Dose of Colors No Shade Desi x Katy Lipstick ($16.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a medium peach with warm, orange undertones and a satin finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation with a lightweight, lightly creamy texture that glided across the lips fairly easily. The color went on evenly, though I had color gather in my lip lines over time. It wore well for four hours and was neither drying nor hydrating. The formula had a sweet scent but no discernible taste.

More Creamer Please
Dose of Colors More Creamer Please Desi x Katy Lipstick ($16.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a medium-dark, peachy brown with warm, yellow undertones and a satin sheen. It had opaque pigmentation in a single layer, and the color went on evenly across the lips. The texture was lightweight, creamy enough to glide on without tugging but did not feel slippery on the lips during wear, so it stayed in place. The color stayed on well for four and a half hours, was neither drying nor hydrating, and didn’t gather in my lines like No Shade did. It had a soft, sweet scent but no discernible taste.

Love your eye makeup!
Aw, thanks Wendy!
Thank you so much for getting this one up so quickly, Christine! I’ve been straddling the rail with More Creamer Please. And now I just don’t know. The quality is definitely there. The depth of the shade is perfect for my NC37 self. My one huge concern is the seemingly STRONG yellow undertone to it, because my teeth could look awful with it. I am going in for a thorough cleaning next month, however. Also of note is that Desi Perkins, while very similar color to me, has more yellow in her skin, whereas I’m more olive and also have peach going on?
So glad I could help, Nancy! 🙂
It is pretty yellow, and it’s possible the yellowness might not work as well with olive undertones vs. yellower ones!
I LOOOVE lipsticks, and these look like very high-quality products, but they’re just not my colors.
Totally get that – they aren’t for everyone since they are quite yellow/warm!
Way too warm for me.
They are both warm for sure!
I’m not a big fan of these yellow-nudes.
I could see them being less appealing to some!
Love this shade – thought it looked quite familiar until I saw the NARS shade on the dipe list!
Glad to hear you’re enjoying it, Stephanie!
I brought More Creamer Please can’t wait to see how it looks on me. Glad to see Bite Creamini lip stick is a dupe because that’s one I always wanted to try. Always on the hunt for a good nude lippie. Hopefully this one doesn’t wash me out. Looks pretty good on you Christine.
Keep us posted on it, Denise! 🙂
Good quality lipsticks, but the shades are too nude for me.
Totally understand! 🙂
My wallet is safe, I can’t pull off these shades
Phew!
I’m glad More Creamer Please did well, a friend of mine was looking at it today. Happy to tell her that if she chooses to buy it, it’s a good buy.
I’m wayyy too pinky-neutral for these colors (I know from experience, *cough, cough* UD Stark Naked), but these seem like they’ll be really flattering on people with warmer undertones, and they look great on you, Christine! I did pick up The Girls palette, so I’m excited to play with that this week 🙂
These shades of Desi x Katy are terrible, chalky and cheap looking. I’m not fond of any of their shades, really, but these two are among the worst.
Thanks for sharing!
