After all that matte lipstick saga, it’s refreshing to be back to creamy moisturising lipstick, such as these. 

The latest lipstick collection from ULTIMA II was launched in collaboration with Grazia Indonesia Magazine last month. With fellow bloggers, we were introduced to 15 colors which are all perfect for Asian skin tone, from reds, pinks, corals & mauves. Rich in Vitamin C & E, they glides so easily on the lips, even if you forgot or just simply too lazy to put on lip balm. 

They sent me four shades to try: PLUM, FUCHSIA, SPICE & RASPBERRY.

Check out the swatches on my lips.

They’re so creamy, but not sticky or shiny. Surprisingly they are quite long lasting, too. And the best part, they didn’t sit on those lines on the lips. So they did give the impression of young and healthy lips. One thing for sure, do use lip liner beforehand to make sure they stay in place, as creamy lipstick tend to go all over if not applied correctly. If you want a matter look out of these, just blot once. Have fun trying these new lipsticks!
