I realized I had not received my lipstick trio in the box and customer sent a replacement ASAP with no questions asked.
Twilight is described as a cherry blossom lipstick. It went on as a very pale dusty blush shade. I usually go for something brighter, but this is a very nice shade for super casual days around the house. It will probably layer on top of another color nicely too. I would classify it as a nude lipstick.
When this box of lipsticks arrived, I was quite confused, as the shipping box was much larger than my previous order. And it was heavy. I only asked for the lipstick set I had ordered. Surely, this was not the entire previous product order?
I opened the shipping box (bottom left photo above), discovered my 3 promised sample products, and discovered the beautiful white box with purple floral ribbon.
This is definitely a gift-worthy product and presentation!
No, Tatcha, had only sent me lipsticks and this was the set. 3 full sizes boxes of individual lipsticks. I have never owned heavier lipsticks!
Some people had stated that these lipstick tubes were like pieces of jewelry. They are very nice and heavy. The way the lipsticks are molded, they have a unique diamond pattern.
Kyoto Red is a beautiful red lipstick. On my lips, it has a tendency to turn into a cool red (that is my lip print above). I will enjoy wearing this shade for a long time. It is a matte lipstick and I wish it had more of a sheen to it, but a gloss will take care of that.
Sunrise is described as a plum blossom shade. It is a beautiful plum hue. This is a great anytime color and I will wear it most any time I head out of the door. This really is my favorite lipstick of the 3 of them. It is not as matte as the Kyoto Red lipstick and it does brighten my lips more than the Twilight shade.
The reviews I have seen on-line say this is a really creamy lipstick and lasts a long time.
I found the colors are long-lasting. However, these lipsticks are not hydrating in-spite of the silk formula. I really do need a rich and hydrating lipstick.
I am glad a didn't pay full price for this set, but they are very nice lipsticks and I will use them.
This would be a great gift for any gal who loves lipstick. The packaging is very impressive and no wrapping is required. You can have confidence in shipping as a gift, because none of the Tatcha packing lists include pricing information! (Sadly, it appears the lipstick trio sets are gone, but they still feature lipsticks on their website.)
