Hey “BD beauties”!
I recently showed a lovely rosy shade of lipstick by wet n
wild called rose bud (904B) which is from the famous matte line in my 5
lipstick shades I love tag which you can read HERE. I have to say this shade is
my most favourite lipstick at the moment in every way I can describe a good
lipstick.

So today’s review is of the Wet n wild matte lipstick in the
shade rose bud ($2.75). This is the perfect rosy shade for medium to dark complexions. The
formulation of these lipsticks are a tad it dry but nothing too crazy making
them unbearable. I have allot of great things to say about this so read on to
know more!
$2.75 for 3.3g of product
What does the brand say about this product?
Lips take center
stage! This 4-hour, longwearing lip color leaves a semi-matte, crème finish
in one stroke. Glides on easily with rich, velvety color that doesn't cake,
feather, or bleed. Made with hydrating skin-care ingredients:
Hyaluronic Microspheres provide extraordinary adhesion to lips, an exclusive
polymer complex offers cushion-like feel and texture, and natural marine plant
extracts Coenzyme Q10 and Vitamins A & E help smooth lips.
My experience with this product
The shade rose bud should be best described as a darker tone
of a rosy shade more suitable for medium to darker complexions. You can however
use it with sight dabbing motions to get a lighter colour payoff. The formulation
of this lipstick is slightly on the drier side but a quick fix with lip balm
underneath it will make it just fine. One thing I noticed because of the drier
texture of the lipstick is that it has a staining effect on my lips and
particularly with this shade; it leaves a lovely natural plumped up shade
behind once it fades away.
Another thing I have to point out is that lipsticks with
matte formulations are generally drier as opposed to ones with a glossy finish.
The colour stays on for about a good 4 hours before it becomes patchy when I
have to reapply but the patchiness isn’t crazy because it stains like I said
before. One thing I hate about this lipstick is the packaging. It does look
pretty and sleek but it doesn’t function right. I feel like the twisting part
is flimsy and also the lipstick doesn’t twist in completely thus you might end
up with the accident where you might stab the bullet with the lid. One more
thing I do not like in the packaging category is that the name of the lipstick
for example rose bud isn’t stated underneath the tube along with the numbers
instead its printed on the plastic wrapping which you throw of as you unwrap
the new tube which is annoying!
I do like the fact that you can see the shade through the
lid which is so much easy when you have a lot of lipsticks to choose through. I
recommend this particular shade for an everyday colour but better.
