Phase Zero Makeup X Love Me Beauty | The Lipstick Collection

Whether or not you are a subscriber, you might have noticed that there have been some intriguing changes made to Love Me Beauty and its whole concept. I love beauty boxes and Love Me Beauty has decided to change their role within the Beauty Box world and have instead decided to shake things up with Phase Zero Makeup. 

Simply explained by Oliver Gauci

Phase Zero X LMB is a project where we’ve created a cruelty-free, luxury formula based brand at factory prices. As we are the manufacturers, we are going to sell straight to the consumer, without all the middlemen and huge markups! A lipgloss that retails at £12 for example, you’ll get for £3.50 with us

Phase Zero is exclusively available to Love Me Beauty and it works in a similar way to the Beauty Box Subscription. So, for a £5 monthly membership fee, you as the subscriber gain access to the Phase Zero Makeup collection at those much-discounted prices. The brand promises that they will deliver high quality, cruelty-free makeup products that contain luxury formulas but instead of costing exorbitant amounts, you will instead get them at factory prices, for example, retail for £12 but members pay only £3.50. If you don't want to be tied into a contract, then you don't have to be, you can still buy the products for their RRP.  The month of February sees the Phase Zero Makeup X LMB project launch with a collection of lip glosses, matte lips and lip toppers which I am sharing with you today.

The collection I have features three lipglosses, four matte lipsticks and two lip toppers and all of the lip products are packaged in plastic tubes, which all look the same and are best identified from the little stick on the bottom of the tube. The plastic tubes contain 8ml of product, come with a standard doe foot applicator and there is a slight Vanilla scent to them.

The three lipglosses I have are the shades

• Dark Burgundy which is a beautiful rich aubergine shade
• Baby Pink which is a really pretty nude pink
• Postbox Red which as the shade name gives away is a stunning bright red.

I am really picky when it comes to lipglosses because I cannot stand anything that is icky, sticky or tacky on my lips, you know the feeling that you have rubbed your lips across a block of lard? Yeah, that feeling. Thankfully these glosses do not have too thick a formula and nor are they sticky but they do contain Sunflower oil, so are really hydrating and quite lightweight for a gloss. 

So far from my using them, Dark Burgundy is the hardest one to work with and is a bit streaky, but it works fine over a lipstick. Postbox Red is not really my shade at all but it is really pigmented and Baby Pink is more of a nude and not so much of the pink and again it can be worn alone or over lipstick.

The liquid lipsticks are matte shades and all four of them dry without flaking, feathering or even running.  The four shades that I have are:

• Classic Red which is, again as the shade states a very classic shade of red
• Pink Suede which is one of my favourite shades and it is a pink nude
• Chai Latte is best described as being a brown nude
• Gingerbread is a deep brown/red which is said to warm your complexion.

All four of these liquid lipsticks are pigmented and deliver an even coat onto the lips in just a few swipes.  

They dry down quite quickly and are really comfortable to wear and last for hours once applied.

The final two products within the collection are two lip toppers and they are both just stunning and my favourite products from the Phase Zero Lip Collection.

• Holographic Girl is everything you think it will be and is definitely one for the Unicorn lovers with its pink/blue hues
• Prosecco Kiss is my absolute favourite product from this collection and it is just stunning with its shimmery rose gold shade

What I really love about these lip toppers is that they can be born with or without lipstick and the formula is non-sticky and dries quickly so it is perfect for keeping your lipstick in place.

Again neither of them are sticky and tacky when applied and they pretty much work alone or with your lipstick.

I am really intrigued as to where the Phase Zero x LMB project will go over the next few months, I think the Lip Collection is an incredible start and a great introduction to what the entire project is about.
