UOMA Beauty Love & Shetore Hypnotic Impact Lipsticks Reviews & Swatches
Love
UOMA Beauty Love Hypnotic Impact High-Shine Lipstick ($24.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a medium, reddish-plum with soft, warm undertones and barely-there gold pearl throughout a glossier finish. It had sheer to semi-sheer color coverage, which applied evenly but could have been more forgiving of lip lines.
The texture was smooth, lightweight, and like an emollient balm that was lightly tacky after the initial application. It lasted well for three hours and felt hydrating over time.

Formula Overview
$24.00/0.12 oz. - $200.00 Per Ounce
The reformulation is described as having a "buildable wash of color" with "reflective sheen" that is "moisturiz[ing]." They had semi-sheer coverage, which was somewhat buildable to medium coverage, but the tones were closer to my natural lip color and were often difficult to discern from one shade to the next as a result (and your mile may vary depending on your natural lip color).
The texture was smooth, balmy, and had moderate slip, but there was a light tackiness present to it that helped the product stay in place a bit better and still feel comfortable. They lasted around three hours on average but were hydrating.
There was a faint, fruity-floral scent but no discernible taste.

She-tore
UOMA Beauty She-tore Hypnotic Impact High-Shine Lipstick ($24.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a medium, plummy brown with warm, gold shimmer throughout. It had semi-sheer, buildable pigmentation (to medium) with a smooth, more balm-like texture that had moderate glide but didn’t feel too slippery on as there was light tackiness after it had been applied.
This shade seemed to smooth out my lip lines a little bit, too, which was a nice feature. It stayed on nicely for three hours and was moisturizing while worn.

I really love She-Tore, whatever the heck that name means! It looks like a perfect neutral lip with a bang of glimmer for me. It reminds me of something, but I’m not home to check if it is like UD Broken or not.
Glad I wasn’t the only one scratching my head over “She-tore!”
Pretty. You expect more unusual shades from OTT bullets. Hope I’m not alone in taking the tubes are somewhat skeevy and off-putting.
Definitely skeevy.
I have two Lippies from this brand and love them. I am considering purchasing at least one of these. Because the colors look so different when applied than in the tube, the reviews are greatly appreciated.
That’s a lot of presentation for such a sheer lip stick, lol. Looking at the lip sticks I expected a little more color. A pass for me.
You could never really guess the colour of the lipstick from looking at it. But both seem to be quite good. I thought She Tore (where do brands get these names from?) looked a little patchy in the swatch and I think Love is a pretty shade.
The color is pretty. Love a sheer shiny lip. The actual lipstick looks unattractive imo. Reminds me of those hideous Tom Ford Extreme lipsticks from a year or two ago. I just find the look of them iugly. Sorry about it!
Aw man. I wanted better and more stronger colors / shimmer from these!
These look super pretty on the lips. The colors look so different in the bullets.
Pretty, but shame about containing microplastics (polyethylene)
I love Love and I have On Fire on my wishlist already… might just get both!
