Gabriel Cosmetics Inc. - Lipstick Aurora Bronze AD

Color swatch is not what came, very misleading!

Very dry on my lips (which are mature). Definitely a matte, not satin, finish. Color is like frosty or metallic gold and slightly more warm orange than cool pink. Not a horrible orange color, just not as pink as I expected based on product photos. I’m looking to replace Maybelline’s NY Color Sensational “Bare All” 910 and this was not a match in terms of color or texture, unfortunately.

beautiful color if you're looking for a natural shade with a touch of color. I love this lipstick alone or I sometimes wear it over a red lipstick just to soften it a little. I'll dot the middle of the upper and lower lip and blend my lips together and it really is beautiful. Don't let the Bronze color fool you, it is definitely a neutral with no brown in it. Feels great on. Does not smudge or get sticky and is light weight in feel if that makes any kind of sense. I will be reordering this int he future.

Unfortunately not what I had anticipated. Packaging and lipstick unit was quality materials. Not cheap feeling. Lipstick was just not the color it showed online once applied to the lip. It was much more sheer and not opaque. I applied it over concealed lips and still just didn't have the color Pay off I was looking for. No smell or anything over bearing. I will say, I thought the lipstick was a bit waxy or sticky for my preference but I tend to gravitate more toward dry matte formulas. $20 is a bit more than what i typically spend on a singular lipstick, but I liked the color so I was willing to try. I think it's over priced tbh. For $5 you can go to Mac and get the best lipsticks or your life so with that said - 3/5. It's just okay.

This is nice lipstick but thought this was lighter in the ad rather than being darker when I received it.
