I finally bit the bullet and bought a blue lipstick.  This metallic blue color is incredible.  It's not for everyone and I don't expect it to be a crowd pleaser.  I just really loved this gorgeous hue and wanted to try something different from my usual pink or red shades.

This was my first purchase from ABH and I must say I'm impressed.  I was expecting the lipstick to feather, but it didn't.  I assumed it would easily come off, but it didn't (not even after lunch).  And I was dreading removing the lipstick from my lips after wearing it for a full day.  I thought, ok...if it stays on this well on my lips, it's definitely going to be difficult to remove.  Well, that wasn't so.  It came off easily with coconut oil and it didn't even stain my lips after wearing it for a full day (unlike most highly pigmented lipstick colors).

What I love most about ABH is that her products are cruelty free.  I've mentioned before on my blog that I'm making a conscious effort to purchase beauty products that don't test on animals.  Not only is testing on animals completely unnecessary, it doesn't even guarantee that the products won't harm you.

Ok, rant over.  I wore neutral eyeshadow and blush to make the dark blue lipstick the main focus.  And I kept my outfit pretty simple.  I feel that the clothing you wear should go with the color of your lipstick, otherwise your look won't be as cohesive.

Have any of you tried unusual colored lipsticks?
