Yesterday's Pick of the Week inspired today's review. Today I am reviewing Milani Color Statement Lipsticks. These new and improved lipsticks from Milani Cosmetics were launched a few weeks ago and ever since, makeup lovers have been scrambling to stores to find them. I was very intrigued by them after reading Nouveau Cheap's post on them and after a few trips to various stores, I finally spotted them.
I found these babies in my local CVS. After discovering that some of the shades were not sold at my local store, I decided to bring home Fruit Punch and Uptown Mauve. Can you tell I love pink lippies? Let's get into the review!

My Thoughts
What can I say? I was very impressed with what Milani has brought to the table. I didn't think their previous formula for lipsticks was bad; however, with the new case and shape, it's much more practical. I love the pigmentation and the lasting color. I could definitely go without the slight waxy fragrance it comes with, but I am not sensitive to smells so I can deal with it. I can honestly say I still like Wet 'n Wild Mega Last Lipsticks better, but these are a close second in my book.
Would I Re-Purchase?
Definitely! However, I would stick to only the cream finishes. I briefly owned Raspberry Rush, but the formula, Metallic, was too rough on my lips.
Are you going to give these lipsticks a try?
God bless & stay fabellis,
