Illamasqua Obey Lipstick Review, Swatches & Comparisons.

Illamasqua Obey Lipstick

Illamasqua Obey Lipstick ($22) is described as a coral-pink with a matte finish. Since peachy-pinks are my favorite shades of lipstick to wear, Obey was my first choice out of all of the different shades Illamasqua has to choose from.

Obey is very vibrant and very opaque. Applied heavily, it looks neon, so I like only applying a thin layer and applying a little gloss on top. It's absolutely gorgeous!

I like the formula of this lipstick and even though it's a matte, it hasn't seemed to dry out my lips more than average. If my lips are already dry though, it does accentuate the dryness a little bit (which is normal with matte lipsticks.)

Although I do love this color, I don't think it was a necessary purchase as I have so many other similar colors. I do of course love it though, and I could see it being a favorite of mine. I do definitely recommend this lipstick though if you are hunting for a color similar to this. It is beautiful and because of the high pigmentation, it will last you forever!

Do you own any Illamasqua lipsticks? Which are your favorites?

  14. I own this color as well as brink (similar in color but more pink), and I find that while the color payoff is GREAT, they are pretty chalky looking/drying if you don't wear them with a balm. But great post, the color suits you.
