Review (4/5): GLITTERING burnt orange
This review is for the Emilie Heathe - Lip Atelier Lip Color in the "Shimmering Burnt Orange" shade, which I believe is the only "shimmery" color offered at the time of this writing. It comes in a super-chic understated black box, and the tube itself is also black and square with a magnetic lid.
Calling the shade "Shimmering" is an understatement - this shade is GLITTERING. The pigment itself is a really pretty Sienna / rust color that's very flattering on my pale, warm-undertoned skin, and it has a LOT of coppery-gold sparkle. It glides on my lips smoothly and puts down a good amount of pigment (and glitter) in a single swipe. It does feel a little bit gritty from the glitter, but doesn't leave my lips feeling dry at all. It does have a little bit of a scent that smells floral to me.
My problem with this particular shade is that the pigment fades (as all lip colors do) throughout the day, but the glitter does NOT. The glitter just migrates outside of your lips and you end up with it all around your mouth. So I personally wouldn't order this shade again. However I like the formula overall, and the fact that it's made in the USA from clean ingredients, so I'm sure the other (non-glittery) colors are amazing and would be right up my alley!
