Everything going right, but we’re shifting gears from here. We've got our hands on one of their star product - the Lip Suede Lipstick Palette. Two palettes are bursting with four luscious shades each, promising a lipstick lover's paradise. One palette flaunts chic nudes like warm rose, peony, café crème, and mulled wine and the other has darker tones namely fuchsia, deep brick red, tomato red, and warm dusty rose.

Now, onto the packaging—fancy shmancy alert! But watch out, it's a workout to lift! Fear not, the gravity gods are always watching.

This product's magic trio of magic ingredients: a special Plant-Derived Oil Blend, fancy Biomimetic Peptides, and a splash of Vegetable-Derived Blend. According to the brand's claims, this concoction is like a power-up for your lips, promising to plump them up and keep them as hydrated as a desert flower. Plus, with Lip Suede, you've got a rainbow of shades to play with—mix and match to your heart's content for a lip look that's as unique as you are.

The fun train is about to hit a bump here. These lipsticks? Let's just say the pigmentation is playing hide-and-seek—it's more like "none to zero." And as for those bold shades? Well, they might not be playing nice with every skin tone, unless you've got really pale lips. And we hope not, because we're delivering the best care for lips too.

Now, onto the packaging—fancy shmancy alert! But watch out, it's a workout to lift! Fear not, the gravity gods are always watching.

High-five for crafting such a jack-of-all-trades product! But hey, let's talk hygiene - maybe swap those fingers for a brush, because things could get a bit icky. And oh, about the pigmentation? It tends to vanish into thin air, especially with the brush.

Some folks out there are whispering about the darker shades smelling like they've been left out in the sun a tad too long. Not trying to stir the pot, but could something be amiss in Westman's wonderland?
