REVIEW: OHLEO Cosmetics Creme Long Lasting Lipsticks - All Dolled Up Collection

Almost three months ago I bought two of these All Dolled Up Collection packs from OHLEO Cosmetics (and the makers of that fantabulous Breeze Balm) - one to keep and one to give away (congrats again Lady L.) - and it's only now that I've had the time to review these gorgeous lipsticks. I first discovered them back in June when I bought some loose ones when they were on special for a ridiculously low price. They still have a couple of the colours for sale, but sadly this collection is no longer listed on their website - I don't know whether that means it's discontinued or simply out of stock. They've recently released some tinted lip balms, so maybe that's what they'll be focussing on in the future. In any event, they are luxurious and luscious lippies, so in case they come back online or you fancy picking up the remaining KELLY or CHELSEA shades, here we go with the review...




The box contained four lipsticks in glamourous rose-gold cases with OH LEO engraved around the base section, and the inner bullet case is etched with the phrase You are Fierce. The formulas are all pretty much the same, although one seems to be a little less glossy than the others, but not drying in any way. They wear very well (survived yoghurt and berries brekky) and keep my lips comfy and supple all day. With no discernible fragrance, they are paraben-free and made in the USA ...




BECKY...


Such a pretty pink, but too pale for moi - I reckon it needs someone with blonde hair and a suntan! I recently did a cull of my entire collection, but I've kept this as I love the formula and can make it wearable by using a deeper lip-liner underneath ...


BRITNEY...


Love this shade - the bullet is almost a pastel terracotta and when swatched on my hand it has quite a bit of orange content, but on my lips, it turns out a soft slightly corally nude. While the others finish with a fair amount of gloss, this one is more satin. Super flattering and a bit different from the usual nudey pinks ...


KELLY...

My fave from the bunch - a fabulous fuschia that's the perfect antidote to a dull day. Isn't she gorgeous? Bold and sassy, I've worn this one the most so far ...


CHELSEA...


This one looks almost neon in the tube but applies as a reasonably subtle orange that I simply adore. No streaks either, which is a common complaint with lipsticks in this hue ...



Love these lipsticks, and I hope Breeze Balm will continue to make them available as I would gladly repurchase for myself, or for a gift ...

Take care of you, and keep safe,

7 Year Bloggiversary Giveaway!...

Holey guacemoley - I've been doing this for 7 years? I remember the excitement (and trepidation) I felt when I uploaded my very first blog post in September 2013 (HERE) - would anyone read it? does the world need yet another blogger? can I maintain the commitment? All these doubts were running through my head as I hit the upload button, but encouraged and inspired by the beautyheaven beauties I'd made friends with over the years, it happened, and I'm still here! I'm not posting twice weekly any more, and the content has changed a bit, but it's still based on pretty things, things that I love. So to celebrate yet another milestone of my mumbles and musings, I decided to put together a giveaway bundle of those beauty items that I write about most frequently and are dearest to my heart - lipsticks and perfume! ...
