Stellar Beauty Metallic Moon Lipsticks Reviews, Photos, Swatches (Part 1)
Disco Moon 01
Stellar Beauty Disco Moon 01 Metallic Moon Lipstick ($22.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a medium-dark, reddish copper with warm undertones and a fine, metallic sheen. it had nearly opaque color coverage that applied evenly to the lips and didn’t settle into my lip lines. The consistency was fairly smooth with just a hint of the feel of all the shimmer in it, but it did not feel gritty or rough on the lips. It wore well for five hours and was neither drying nor hydrating.
The formula is supposed to be “velvety soft” with “full coverage” that isn’t drying. There are five shades in the range (at least, at this time), and the pigmentation varied from semi-opaque to opaque. They had a denser, firmer texture that didn’t drag uncomfortably across the lips, but it took greater pressure than the average lipstick to apply across the lips. The result on the lips was thinner but still had coverage. There was no discernible scent or taste to me, except some of the waxiness of the base formula came through.

Holy cow! 01 looks fantastic on you!
Thank you, Mindy!
The hot pink is giving me ’80s vibes!
I can totally see why!
I’m not really into metallic lipsticks (I’d rather use a metallic gloss) but they look really nice with even coverage. 02 is very pretty!
I like them as a standalone a product, but if I layer, I’m more apt to use a powder eyeshadow or a gloss!
These look and sound wonderful! Loving 02 especially because of how much it reminds me of MAC Fusion Pink, which has been on my mental wishlist for what feels like an eternity!
Definitely similar to Fusion Pink!
Wow, Disco Moon 02 is lovely!
Happy to hear it, Indya!
These are gorgeous! Disco Moon 03 is my favorite, but I have two dupes for it. I like that 02 is like a metallic MAC Fusion Pink.
Lucky to have not one but two dupes for Disco Moon 03!
I love the first two!! So lovely and glowy!!
Off topic, but I’m really digging your brows lately Christine!! They look so beautiful and really compliment your face!!
Thanks a lot, Shannon!
I think these are some pretty fantastic, very wearable ‘metallics’.. just at the right level. 01 might be a bit too much for me and not a shade I would pick, but 02 and 03 are lovely.
I agree – I think that’s a perfect way to put them!
I really like the look of Disco Moon 01!! I’m not familiar with this brand but a lipstick is a good place to start. On the wish list for Sephora’s sale!
That’s what I figured, too, haha!
These are interesting! I like all three but on me the last two would work – maybe! Pretty!
Glad there are two shades that might work for you, Deborah! 😀
I’m surprised by just how much I love all THREE of these! I generally don’t like metallic lipsticks and find them sort of garish (with the notable exception of MAC New York Apple) but I like the look of these.
You know, if you like New York Apple, I think you might like the finish of these as much in person!
Now to decide which one I want first… dilemmas.
Which ones are you choosing between, Shari?
All three, lol.
Oh my, I am in LOVE with that Disco Moon 1 Copper lipstick and isn’t it lucky that I am going to Sephora this week! I hope they have it – it’s a beautiful shade.
Fingers crossed!
I’m so excited these reviewed well. I’m not really into metallic lips but these are subtle enough that the finish isn’t jarring.
It seems like you’re not the only one who enjoys the subtlety of the finish!
These are super nice, especially 01.
They are!
These are so tempting!
They are!
01 reminds me of the ruby slippers from Wizard of Oz. Very pretty!
Good description 😀
WOW – love these! I’m glad to hear they’re not dry – sounds like the technology on metallics for lips is improving.
I really think it has! But I think (in general) makeup has come a long way, even from when I started (about 12-13 years ago).
Disco Moon 01 is my favorite, and it’s going in my cart for the Sephora sale. I love it!
Enjoy it, Tamara!
