I can hardly believe that Milani’s new line of lightweight, creamy, pigmented Color Statement Lipsticks clock in at a cool $5.49 per tube. If you dressed these up a little, maybe gave ’em a packaging makeover, no joke — they could probably pass for Tom Ford lippies!
Oh, but we might want to do something about that fruit punch fragrance… Wow! Talk about strong.
If fruity fragrances in your lip products aren’t a big issue for you, climb in, because these are like the Lamborghinis of drugstore lipsticks.
Here’s a quick peek at the pink and coral shades from the line…
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S.
How is the wear on these? I’m kinda wanting to get a nice, pigmented color for a Valentine’s Day event I’m going to…but I want it to have some sort of stay-power to it. I love Flirty Fuschia!
I cannot wait to try a couple of these! Love the colors! Milani is sold at cvs stores isn’t it?
good, with the red and oranges I could not see difference between the reds and the oranges where pretty similar too.
here you can see more diference
La la looove pink lipsticks! I’ve got my eye on Flamingo Pose. I probably wouldn’t mind the fruity scent. Want!!
Man, I’m seeing a whole bunch of shades that I want! Not too sure how I’ll like the scent, but they sure look nice on you!
Fruit Punch ftw! It’s a lightish shade that our medium-deep skin can actually handle. So rare. So good!
Absolutely LOVE!! I purchased Milani Sweet Nectar and omgosh, it is so darn pretty! I need Rose Hip && Flamingo Rose in my life! Great review as always! ^_____^
The shades look very pretty, but I can’t stand strong fragrances in my lipsticks! 🙁
Flamingo is pretty!
The colors are beautiful but from the swatches, these looks a bit dry.
Milani has some awesome stuff at amazing prices. I want all of these! 🙂
Why do companies have to add weird scents to lippies?
I have been starting to see the new Milani lipsticks around. I’m thinking of picking up one of the shades I have in old formula to compare, though the idea of the fragrance is a turnoff, hmm.
Yay, new shades! I’m so happy you included Rose Hip in the swatches, I have this one so I can get a better idea how it compare to the other colors!
I really like Milani products, esp their blushes. I think they are most lacking in their lipstick line so these should be interesting. Not too sure about the ‘fruit’ flavor, but I sure did like fruit punch 🙂
Monica.
Very nice collection. I have my eyes on Fruit Punch. But not available in India 🙁
The pink shades are so pretty!
Look at that pretty smile of yours, love it! It makes these lipsticks appear even brighter ^^. TGIF Karen!
I wish they had more colors besides pink…
Hi Vanessa,
They do. These are just 7 of the 30 shades.
Drugstore makeup just gets better and better – Milani has always done well with eye and lip stuff (though some of their eye makeup has been hit or miss). I don’t wear lipstick much but these would be fun to try since they are about 5 bucks a piece.
I’ve never tried Milani but Fruit Punch is calling my name!
Karen, your skin looks AH-MAZING in these pictures…what do you have on??
They have a lovely shade lineup! Loved Flamingo Rose and Flirty Fuchsia on you!
Pink frost looks really nice
Rose Hip and Rose Amour look just like all those MAC Magenta/Purple shades that have come out recently!! I wish I could love these, but sadly, fake fruity products break it in my book. I tried L’oreal Infallible lip glosses, and almost had to expel my lunch. They look lovely on you, though!
Lovely shades….Flamingo rose is looking awesome on you 🙂
These look amazing on you! 🙂 I love how Milani came out with a wide variety of awesome colours.
Although I’m not the biggest fan of pink on my nails, on my lips, I really enjoy pinks. These look great!
These are so fun!
Rose Amour is amazing on you! I need these. Ohh, Milani <3
Thanks for posting these pictures! Those colors look amazing, next time I’m at the drugstore, I am definitely picking up one of these!
These colors look Fab! Is Rose Hip a dupe for MAC’s Candy Yum Yum?
You are selling me on Flamingo Rose! That colors looks great on you. You’re so right, Milani products really are the upscale version of drugstore finds!
Hi Karen,
I just bought Flamingo Rose (love!) & thought it resembled MAC Moxie (based on swatches I’ve seen). How do you think they compare (if at all)? Thanks!!! xoLiz
The pigmentation is great but can’t stand the smell! I wish these were unscented.
got this in hot pink yesterday! love it! a bit drying but long lasting. I want more!
i am a huge fan of the milani brand. yes they are drugstore products…BUT are just as good if not better than some high end goods. seriously! =) i have the lipstick in pink frost, and yes its frosty..but looks so pretty with a deep smokey eye. im a makeup artist/hairstylist, and when i wear it people compliment me! now when u think pink frosty lipstick, u think ew! 80’s or 60’s mod…but thats hot! u can def play this color up. i have yet to use the others but im super excited to! =) ps..milani baked shadows r to die for! try the dark blue and the deep brown shade.. whoa.
lol
