Hi there everyone!! So I have some really exciting products that I bought today that I absolutely had to show you! I’m a very big fan of shopping online, but often doing so means you miss out on some of the newer australian cosmetic products available in stores.
So today as I was grocery shopping I had a bit of a wander around priceline and found THESE babies! It looks like they’re limited edition, but it’s a new line of MATTE lipsticks from SAVVY by DB! I believe there were a total of only 8 shades. Though they were of a matte texture, some had shimmer/sparkle giving a more velvet look, and some were just matte and opaque. Although there were a few of the lighter shades that I found questionable on anybody, the darker half of the shades were FANTASTIC and picked one of each! Swatched, they were amazingly pigmented and matte, and best of all???? THEY WERE ONLY $6.99!!! Can you believe that?? $6.99 peoples!! Now that’s more like it! Finally we are seeing “drugstore prices” that are actually comparable to the US “drugstore” prices!! Well done SAVVY!
So, before I babble on some more, shall I just show you my newest babies?? I only picked 4 (initially was just going to get 1), but for $7 each, I though what the heck! The total cost of all four will STILL be cheaper than a MAC lipstick and I’m telling you, these babies are absolutely WORTH the price! If not more! I would have happpppily payed $15+ for them!
Left to Right: Vegas, Bali, Morocco, Maui
LIP SWATCHES!
Morocco:
Opaque blue-based red. Reminiscent of MAC Lipstick in “Red” (Satin finish)
Bali:
Deep blue based burgandy/purple. Very very slight shimmer, but not noticeable on application. Reminiscent of MAC Lipstick in “Rebel”
Vegas:
Orange based red. Brighter shade than Morocco. Reminiscent of MAC lipstick in “Lady Danger”
Maui:
Very bright (almost neon-ish) milky coral. Again, some very slight golden shimmer on close examination, but not noticeable at all on application. Reminiscent of MAC lipstick in “Vegas Volt”
I’m glad the beauty industry in Australia is finally reducing prices and increasing quality. Another amazing item from SAVVY. Very impressed!
Hope you guys found this helpful and dont forget to check it out!!
(PS – Sorry for the HORRIBLE lipswatches! I was literally rushing to take the photos as the sun was quickly going down!! booo.)
These look great. Can you get them in America?
Oh, Maui is just my shade. It's a shame I'm in England! I think Bali looks especially gorgeous on you x
Love the picture quality here! Plus you posing like a boss as per lol.
Love your new header, June!! And your new posts! These lipsticks look amazing and you look gorgeous as always <3
ive got bali, its my new favourite lip colour at the moment!! great post btw 🙂
i bought the morroco after watching your vid. love it! its the first red lippy that doesn't make me weird looking! (I have really full lips)
I just picked up the Maui and San Fran yesterday – bit behind with these!! Do you have a lip primer that you would recommend for matte lipsticks? I find they settle into any cracks I have and it ends up looking tacky.
