I first saw these lipsticks in my mother's makeup bag. And when I tried it I didn't like the shade (Ice Pink), because I think it doesn't suit me well. But after 2 years , I saw this in their brochure and found out that it has 9 more shades. I decided to buy one because its cheap (79 php) and very pigmented. I bought Russian Red because I love red lipsticks, I think red really makes someones look more awake and healthy. But the For school red isn't really advisable because its scandalous :) so I decided to get velvet nude. And my mom gave me Ice Pink. I wish to complete their shade I will update you if I do have them all :)
In case you're wondering here is the Ingredients description in the seal. I can't barely read the text, I hope I got all the words correct.

Russian Red
This one is a deep red color even though it kinda looks bright in the pic. This reminds me of 1920's red lipstick. Perfect for retro look. It has a blue hue which makes my teeth lighter :D
Ice Pink
This is their best seller. Its kinda neon pink, bright pink. I'm really not a fan of pink lipstick so I have nothing much to say. :D If you're a fan of pink lipstick well you must try this!
Velvet Nude
This one is my current favorite. Its perfect with my Ever Bilena blusher in earth (which Im wearing in the pic). I've always been afraid to try nude lipsticks because I think "pale-lips-look" is not for me, but this one is different. Its not that pale and its not that loud perfect for everyday use.
Here are my observations regarding this lipsticks:
GOOD:
- Very Pigmented
- Cheap, its only 79 pesos
- It lasts long on the lips. It can even survive a meal :)
- It has 10 other wonderful shades
- Doesn't have a weird smell.
- Can be a bit drying, but a lip balm(im using babylips by maybeline) can solve the problem or even a lip gloss if you like.
- Only available at Sophie Martin's distributor.
- The design of the tube fades away quickly.
My Rating: 4/5 :D I will surely repurchase and will complete the whole set :D
