“Absolutely in loooove with the shade. Must say did take some thorough research to find out which shade is which amongst the red tones as the pics on IG/websites do not show the actual shade that you see for real. This is purely due to screen glares etc but yes did take a while for me to make a definitive choice.
But when I tried Hollywood.. oh my word. The lipstick is fab! Even after a subway, cookie, coffee, wagas ramen bowl and snog (not all in one sitting.. lol) later it did not come off!
Did make and felt my lips dryer than usual throughout the day but I suppose that's the way the lippie and glitter sticks onto your skin.
Removed with ease with garnier micellar water, but did a light pink tint overnight.
However, still have made further 2 purchases of Forbidden and Infamous only in the sales. Must really offer free delivery for returning customers atleast!
Nevertheless, very happy with my purchase and cannot wait to strut my KAPOW lips at my work Xmas party!!
Thankyou team Ciate”
“Disappointed. Applied and waited the 2mins. I pressed lips together, which felt like sandpaper, and there wasn’t much glitter at all. Repeated the application, adding lip balm before pressing lips, and this time no glitter. The lipstick came off and my hand too. Not like in the video, or descriptions. Feel disappointed that I’ve wasted £17 for a red sandpaper feeling lip stick, can’t even call it gloss.”
