Budget-friendly Lipsticks w/ swatches

Hi! The product that I'll be reviewing today is no longer new to all Filipinas. The brand name is famous in Direct Selling industry like Avon, Natasha, MSE, etc. It is known for their bags,watches, apparels and of course, cosmetics.

The product name is Sophie Paris! I will review 4 shades of their lipsticks.

                                                       

                                       The packaging of the lipstick is decent enough.

                          

The first time  I saw these lipsticks was last December 2012. We had a Monito-Monita (it's like Kris Kringle) and my Monita (the person that I'm supposed to give a gift) wished to have lipsticks from Sophie. She explained on the Wish list that the lipsticks are on sale for only 79 pesos each.

Everyone should have a gift that costs 400 pesos. I think I gave 6 shades of lipsticks to my Monita and I bought them from my colleague named Toni who is currently reviewing for her Bar Exam. Good luck Toni!!!!. 

As we all know, Filipinos are very hardworking and we find ways to have extra money other than our salary from work. I have another colleague named Jhustine who is also selling Sophie products. I borrowed her brochure and brought it to Bulacan where my hometown is during my rest day. I told my sister that the lipsticks are very affordable and she was amazed by the price. 

I ordered 4 shades of lipsticks for my sister. I got the lipstick w/o paying the total amount of 4 shades. I will pay Jhustine in installment basis. The total amount will be divided into two and it will be given to her in our 2 consecutive paydays. Here in the Philippines, it's called two-gives. 

Here are the 4 shades that I bought and these will be given to my sister. She's also my model for today!

First shade:

                                   

I find it not too pigmented. Although when you see it's shade I remember Barbie doll's lips. 

Second Shade: 

                                   

It's also not too pigmented for me. It has a coral shade. This is perfect for Pinays with beige to tan complexion. 

Third shade: 

                                  

The shade is closed to Mango Peach however it has brown shade.

Fourth shade: 

                                

I was amazed by the pigmentation of this lipstick other than the 3 shades. It has a dark red shade which is perfect if want to be foxy! I don't know why it has orangey tone on the picture but in real life it has dark red tone. This is my favorite shade. This is also good for all skin color! 

  

     All shades have creamy formulation.

Verdict: I find it very affordable for 85 pesos each. These would be perfect for college students or office women who want to have a natural look because the shades are safe to be worn everyday. I find it not too pigmented except for Russian Red which my sister and I really like! I think you can't blame the pigmentation because of it's price.

Overall, the Sophie Paris Lipsticks have hits and misses. I think they have good pigmentation w/ red shades. 

If you find this lipstick line will sooth your preference, go ahead and look for Sophie dealer near you.

I appreciate your time reading my first blog and I hope you read my next reviews!

Bye for now!
