Good pigmentation but the formula is a bit drying.

Product Antwerp wears on me like a vivid, hot coral pink pretty much neon against my AAB/NC25 coloring. Way too bold for my preference. The formula is easy to work with yet somehow has a slightly clumpy, thick, dry feel to it. Dries down to a matte finish. Staying power is ok, not great. It settles into my lip lines and makes my lip texture look awful so exfoliation is a must and removal needs to be thorough. Scent is very sweet, like vanilla cupcakes, but isn't noticeable once it dries down.Packaging Opaque hard plastic tube with doe foot applicator attached to the black screw-on cap. Tube color is indicative of the shade inside.Overall I'm not a fan of this shade or this formula. continued >>

I have other swatches from this line and I love them, but Antwerp isn't for me. It's a great product, but definitely test the swatches in person; they rarely match the color of the tube exactly! I was attracted to it because of the color on the tube (this beautiful soft coral color), but I was bothered by the bright pink color of the actual product. It looks really nice when I've seen it on others (it actually looks coral!), but it's a horrifying color (bright neon pink) on me. Maybe it's a skin tone thing, or I got a bad batch. The product is inexpensive, does go on nicely (only really needs 1-2 coats) and isn't as drying as some full-on matte lipsticks!

Got it online after seeing some swatches. I was expecting a nice colar kind of shade, and the tube really makes you think that the shade is actually medium colar/peachy tone. On my lips it's really bright fuchsia colour. Ugh. Doesn't really suit me at all. Disappointment, since I could've picked some other shade from the range instead of this.Nice scent, nice packaging, lasts pretty well. The colour just wasn't right for me.

This has become one of my go-to corals. It's bright and beautiful, and perfect for summer. Tad bit drying as a formula, but sort of expected for a matte. Not overly drying or uncomfortable, though.
