e.l.f. Studio Matte Lip Color in Cranberry

Hey guys. For the last installment of my e.l.f. Studio Matte Lip Color review, I have the shade Cranberry (other shades: Praline and Coral). This the darkest color of the three and if I have to pick among them, would be my favorite.

Cranberry is a deep, red-cranberry with a satin-matte finish. I don't normally lipstick with colors as dark as this as they tend to overwhelm my features. It doesn't stop me from buying these colors though because I think they're really pretty and sophisticated.

The texture of this lipstick is the same with the rest of the shades that I have previously reviewed (See Reviews: Praline and Coral). It's smooth, creamy and readily glided across my lips. The formula is more satin than matte so it's not as drying as one would expect from a true matte lipstick.

Because of the satiny texture, the lipstick has a heavier feeling than I would have liked.I don't mind though because it's not totally uncomfortable.

Only one swipe is needed to achieve an even, saturated and opaque color. Because of the darker shade, lip imperfections, dry patches and line are not noticeable. This lipstick also leaves a stain, so this stayed longer, up to fours hours even after a light meal.
