MUA Luxe Reckless:
- Color- From top of the tube, it seems like Deep, cool Red, like you can see in the image below-
- But when you open the tube, you get to see the this is a medium red, with a blue undertone, (the
color in this second lot of MUA Reckless differs a lot from the previous one, which was a very deep maroon, like- Cabernet(red wine) type
color. And this time, the color is a lot lighter and not the deep, red
wine kinda gorgeous shade anymore. Still it's a nice color, but not the exact desired shade.
- Color- Mainly it's a cool red, with a blue undertone, but the
color in this second lot differs a lot from the previous one, which was a very deep maroon..Cabernet(red wine) type
color. And this time, the color is a lot lighter and not the deep, red
wine kinda gorgeous shade anymore. Still it's a nice color, but not the exact desired shade.
- In my old blog post, about the previous lot, i had mentioned- "It's one of the precious colors of Red, that I own so
far! The mesmerizing cool toned maroon with a velvety look made me bound
to get this just the moment I saw this on the website" But, this time it is not the same for me! I'll try to search for the old lot if i can! Or i'll try to get the "Milani amore matte lip cream- Devotion" which kinda matches to the older version of MUA Reckless.
- Look & Feel- As usual it has a matte finish after
applying for a while. But, this time, it didn't feel that drying like- powdery matte and kinda creamy feeling at first few minutes on my lips. I rather felt the replicas of Lime Crime were drier than this and felt powdery matte. The swatch faded really fast after rubbing, when applied as one coat
swatch on my hand. But on lips, it stays for a pretty long time without flaking or caking! As a whole good product!
- It transfers very less and only while having food (oily, to be more specific I had chow-min) & it seemed to fade a little, but
other than that, with dry food like cookies and other things like
drinking water, it's perfectly alright and for removing it, i had to
apply the same technique like removing it with Vaseline or make up
removing agent
- Swatch: Here's the swatch of MUA Reckless with a comparison with my Rioza Red and you will see the slight difference of cool undertone & thinner texture with the Rioza Red beside this (which is more of warm red and thicker).
- Packaging- Unlike previous MUA Luxe Reckless, which used
to come in this black and
golden colored packet, this one comes in a simple plastic wrap, and the
whole tube and cap also looks different. Though the basic tube is still
that frosty but a little clear may be, which creates a velvet from
outside. And the golden cap also makes it seem more gorgeous than
previous packaging.The price remains same though!
- My Rating- After using this batch of MUA Reckless, i am not overwhelmingly happy about it. My all over rating would be 7.5 out of 10 this time.
