| Jordana Lipsticks (L-R): Poppy Pink, Raspberry PR Samples* |
Poppy Pink (Matte – Matte Finish)
Jordana has a couple other matte collections too, but the one lipstick I own is in the basic golden tube similar to the original (silver) one. Now within this matte collection, lipsticks come in three sub finishes; cream, pearl and matte, which is quite amusing. Poppy pink is categorised as a matte within this matte collection and boy I would go as far as saying that this is best matte finish I have ever tried. It is not matte to the point where it gets over the top dry or chalky, and at the same time it is not one of those matte lipsticks that are more towards the creamy side. Rather it is just matte, or velvety matte as Jordana says.
It goes on smoothly, provides full opacity, lasts for hours and since it is just matte it does not feather or bleed which is goals with a shade so bold. Upon sniffing closely, you get a hint of that vanilla scent that quite a lot of lipsticks have these days but it is not really detectable. I would describe this shade as something in between MAC’s Candy Yum Yum and Girl About Town. It is a basic bright pink that every girl should have in her collection.
I wore Poppy Pink in my Gluttony Halloween makeup look.
Price: 445 PKR
Amount: 3.4 g
Shade Range: 35 shades
Raspberry (Original – Pearl Finish)
Just like the matte collection, the ‘Original’ lipstick range of Jordana also has three sub finishes; frosted, cream and pearl. Raspberry itself is a pearl finish and it looks iridescent with nearly microscopic shimmer particles. The shade is exactly what the name says, raspberry, a deep purplish pink. My favourite thing about it is that it smells like raspberries too. The scent is sweet and fruity, I am not a fan of either normally but I love them in this. It just does not smell artificial and actually seems quite yummy to me. This lipstick is even easier to apply than Poppy Pink and is richly pigmented. It is long lasting too but doesn’t beat Poppy Pink here and transfers more readily, however, since it stains you can get away with infrequent touch ups.
Price: 445 PKR
Amount: 3.4 g
Shade Range: 84 shades

I am in love with Poppy Pink. Such a beautiful shade! x

This shade Poppy Pink is so beautiful. I only wear pink lipsticks and LOVE all shades that come within. My Amma Jaan thinks it's absurd to get same shade every time I get a lipstick, but you know it's never the same. I just can't skip the "pink" part off it 😀

Haha, I am trying to give up on that habit with mauvy pinks! 😀
These shades are too cool toned for my liking but still pretty pinks:)
Chaste & Beautiful
Ah, I see what you mean and to be honest I stuck to warm tones pretty much myself previously but these two are lovely! 😉
The shades are too dark for me, but if they give matte finish, I can try.

Poppy Pink is matte and I think you will like it.

Haha, for a change, pink it is!
Both shades are nice, but I am not anymore fan of sheen finish, it reminds me of those classic (mommy) lipsticks, matte or cream is my thing(these days) 🙂
Nice and detailed review as ever
Haha, I am more of a matte and cream gal too now! Thank you!
