Colour by TBN Lipsticks - Part 2...

Back in December (HERE), I reviewed nine of the lipsticks from the Colour by TBN range - absolutely loved them (especially for $3.95 & cruelty-free!), so much so I've been visiting my local Price Attack on a regular basis, waiting for them to restock. Well, it finally happened a few weeks ago (pre-COVID), and I found another six that, from the packaging, looked like they would serve me well, and indeed, these are all terrific for my particular colouring, although the last one is a wee bit pale but still totally wearable ♥...

There are 20 in the range, so with these six new babes, I have 15 of them! Only missing three that I really want - Going Taupeless (looks like a purple-pink), Bite Me (deep red), & Sugar & Spice (bold pink), the other two (Ice Queen & Candy Man) will be way too light, so I'll give those a miss...

And so, it's on with the swatches!...

Why So Orange...

Colour by TBN - Why So Orange swatch and bullet

Oh yum - doesn't get much more vibrant or juicier than this citrus delight. Has quite a bit of red in it - in fact, I'm calling it a rorange (just made that up lol) ♥...


Roses Are Red...

Who doesn't love a bold and bright red now that the weather is cooling down, the days are shorter, and dull days will be far more frequent? This hydrating scarlet is the perfect antidote! ♥...


My Milkshake...

Gee, I don't know what this has to do with milkshakes - maybe a strawberry one? Can't decide if this is a coral or a rose - either way, it's such a gorgeous colour, n'est-ce pas? ♥...


Birthday Suit...

Colour by TBN - Birthday Suit swatch and bullet

Aptly named, this is one of those my-lips-but-better shades. On my lips it's a nude, although it does have a tinge of terracotta ♥...


Mocha-Chino...

I love a warm soft brown, and while this one is more of a latte, it will certainly see some outings with the biscuity beiges, and even the golden tans in my wardrobe ♥...


Souffle All Day...

Colour by TBN - Souffle All Day swatch and bullet

Same goes for this one - borderline too pale but just scraped through. Love how creamy it is, makes me think of butterscotch cream pie ♥...

These are such terrific value - which one(s) would you choose for yourself?


Take care of you, and keep safe,

    1. Aren't they Raluca? I'm really so impressed with the quality of these lipsticks - both the packaging and the product itself are on a par with ones I've tried that are at least 3 times the price, amazing ♥

    1. I know - the price is crazy huh? I'm so impressed with the quality - a lot of low end lipsticks have cheap packaging, but these are solid as a rock ♥

  4. I was very tickled to learn the bottom ‘clear’ part detaches, and it has a pot of the lipstick in it- it was great for travel! I have also gave one to my sister as a tester
