Great Color and Texture I love Ecco Bella lipsticks. I have been using for about a year now and have tried two colors (Mauve Rose and Tuscany Rose). The ingredients meet my strict standards for cosmetics with as little “nasty” chemicals as possible. The colors are vibrant and stay on as long or longer than my previous brand (L’Oreal Color Rich), and it is not drying to the lips. I would say that the color of this lipstick on my monitor looks more “orangey” than in real life. Amazon’s price for this product is no cheaper than my local health food store, but if I am ordering other items, I save the tax!
The Best Vegan Lipstick (Color-Rosewood) I bought two vegan lipsticks simultaneously about 7 years ago, when I stopped using animal products in my cosmetics. The first, by ‘Beauty without Cruelty’ had an odd smell and taste that made it unwearable, and in addition to that was thick and kind of sticky almost.This one on the other hand has a mild but pleasant make-up smell, does not taste strange, goes on very smoothly, like lipstick should and the color I chose – Rosewood – is one of my all-favorite lipstick colors; it’s a warm, medium-dark, perfect for all occasions. The color is similar to the tube of lipstick pictured, but less orangey, more sort of deep mauve.As a company, I really appreciate Ecco Bella. they manufacture their cosmetics in the US. Their ingredients are tested for heavy metals like lead, cadmium and mercury, and in this day and age that sort of seems like something everyone should be doing. The colors in their lipsticks are derived from iron oxides and carmine, an insect-derived…
something is so wrong I am holding what I received against the picture. The real lipstick shade has no shimmer or frost, and is lacks any of the rose pink shown in the picture. As if that wasn’t bad enough getting a stick of pale brick colored lip color, it smells strongly and unpleasantly of putty, the putty you use around a sink. It has no slip or glide in the texture, instead you have to press the dry-ish textured stick to apply anything to your lips. One try was enough for me, the taste was awful too, like putting a hardware store product on my mouth. DO NOT BUY, I am so wanting to support organic and natural product lines, but this is a complete botch, and costs me 15 unrefundable dollars because it is a personal use product. Ugh.
