It's been a while. Now I'm back again to share about our collab between Surabaya Beauty Blogger & Purbasari Cosmetics.
Purbasari is one of the well known local cosmetic & skin care brand in Indonesia that established since 1993 under Gloria Origita Cosmetics (GOC) PT. This company was born with a vision to provide a good quality skin care and make up product with affordable price. And in 1998, their product has entered the international market and exported to some countries such as South East Asia, Taiwan, Hongkong & Middle East.
So yesterday, i got a package from Purbasari Cosmetics. It's a black box with gold Purbasari letter printed at the front side.
Let's see what inside this box. Taraaaaa......
They sent me their new lipstick collection in all shades. There are totally 5 lip cream inside this box, packed in a simple & beautiful packaging box.
This year has become a trend of matte lip cream. Many cosmetics brand has launched matte lip cream series with different benefit & specialty. Through their innovation, Purbasari company has developed and launched their new lip cream called Purbasari Hydra Series Hi-Matte Lip Cream.
This product created with maximum covering benefit and claimed to be :
~ high pigmented
~ high coverage
~ long lasting
~ high protection
~ fast drying
~ no transfer
~ light weight & easy to use
~ contain anti-oksidan & uv protect
~ moisturizing
I'm curious to try and prove whether this product truly meets what it claimed. So without further say, let's start.
I'm gonna talk about the packaging box first before jumping into the product itself.
The packaging box is designed in black doff colour with shiny gold Purbasari letter printed at the top front and other description are printed in white.
There is a small parallelogram hole cut diagonally from bottom front to middle right side of the packaging box that show the colour shade of each lip cream inside.
The ingredients are written at the left side of the packaging box, also printed in white.
And at the back at the packaging box, you can see caution inatruction, manufacture information, BPOM barcode & number label, the expired date & product nett.
At the top of the packaging box, there's a sticker label showing each different colour shade of these lip creams. Lip cream code and shades also printed on that label. This sticker is connected to the BPOM label sticker to seal the packaging box. Here's the picture in more detail.
As you can see on the picture above, this lip cream series got 5 colour shades :
• 01 - VINCA
• 02 - AZALEA
• 03 - LANTANA
• 04 - ZINNIA
• 05 - FREESIA
I personally love the name of each lip cream shades. It reminds me of some name in old greek fairytale if I didn't wrong.
End with the packaging box, now let's jump into the product.
Not like other matte lip cream, Purbasari designed their lip cream packaging in a slim block bottle while other are normaly designed in slim cylinder bottle.
I honestly love this idea. Because with this design, it will make this product stay still and not easily rolled & fell down which often happened. The transparant plastic bottle allow us to see directly the colour inside. And the black screw cap & shiny gold stripes surrounding in between makes this product looks classy 😍
Each colour looks exactly the same as what you see inside the packaging. But in my experience, it will be a little bit different if you swatch it on your lips. So let's try 😎
This is my favourite part, lip swatches 😍😍😍.
I'm gonna start from shade no 01 down to no 05.
● 01 - VINCA
This shade is such a soft coral tone. It's a shade that suitable for office look. And also great for light summer make up with pastel outfit. But for people with dark skin, i think this shade is too pale for you.
● 02 - AZALEA
This shade is still have a coral tone bit a little brighter than Vinca. It's perfect for daily look whether you wanna go for shopping, lunch with friends or any casual occasion. I guess this is a common fave shade for asian women.
● 03 - LANTANA
This shade is such a colour mixture between red and orange. It's suitable for date look, family dinner or other special occasion and you don't wanna look too glamour.
● 04 - ZINNIA
This shade has a pink tone. It's suitable for hang out look whether you wanna go for a movie with friends or just having some coffee at starbucks. The shade is medium, not too soft and not too bold either. If girly look is your style, this shade will win your heart 😍
● 05 - FREESIA
This shade is the darkest shade of this series. It's a bold red colour, a classic colour that never go out of date since years years ago. It's perfect for glamour look. If you are going for party or big event, this colour will make you look classy.
From all those colour, my favourite goes to AZALEA 😍
Next, I'm gonna talk about the texture.
This lip cream has a thick creamy texture. If you have dry lips, i suggest you to use lip balm or lip butter before applying this lip cream to make it look smoother & glide easily on your lips. The colour is very pigmented. This lip cream smells like sweet candy but disappear right after application.
Talking about the lasting power, this product truly meets what it claimed to be. It can last for more than 6 hours but still transfer a bit. It might be because i used too much or because of the thick creamy texture. Bu overall, i don't mind as long as it can last as i expected 😍
Finaly, after trying this Purbasari Hydra series Hi-Matte Lip Cream, here's my honest opinion.
Pros :
~ long last
~ very pigmented
~ has uv protect & vitamin e
~ didn't dry out my lips
~ creative packaging
Cons :
~ stain on glass
~ too thick texture
~ contain parfume & paraben
Overall, I rate this 4 out of 5 ❤❤❤❤
