A few months back there was a transformative event that had a huge impact on me. Basically, I discovered BeautyBay!

It had some brands that I had been wanting to try for the longest time and some that I already knew. Among the ones that I had been wanting to try.

I had read time and again how their lip tars were great products that offered  high pigmentation, could be mixed and stayed on for hours. So of course, curiosity got the better of me and I just put some in my cart.

This is how I ended with this two gorgeous shades;  Role Play and Black Metal Dahlia (both with metallic finish).

I choose metallic finishes as those were the ones that were perhaps less conventional and I really wanted to try.

Role Play is a very vibrant red with a metallic finish. What I love is that, similarly to MAC’s Viva Glam Riri, it is a warm toned red with red pearl. It immediately draws attention and gives light to your face.

Black Metal Dahlia is a gorgeous burgundy red with red pearl. It is absolutely stunning in the tube, however, and perhaps due to the amount of glitter in it, it can apply a bit patchy on the lips (you can sense it from the swatch below). It truly is a shame as it is a stunning shade.

What I loved about the lip tars is that the tube contains a generous 10 mL and as you can see in the swatches above a little really goes a long way. I am really looking forward to enjoying many an application out of those 10 mL.

Also, I find it very convenient that the tubes come in little plastic bags and with their own brush. It is very handy if you want to carry them in your purse and reapply them!

All in all, really nice product, can’t wait to try more of them!
