Lipstick Queen: Frog Prince


 Lipstick Queen is a line by Poppy King that is easily the most moisturizing lipstick I have ever worn.  Though it is a cruelty free brand, it is not vegan, as they use beeswax in their products. A lot.  I have been wearing the lipstick for almost seven hours now and still feel like I just put on some chapstick.  I don't know a single brand that can hold a candle to this one in terms of moisture.

The line I want to talk about today is called Frog Prince.  Because its green :)  All of her makeup is really whimsical and fun, and I think the Frog Prince line might be the most of all.  I have only ever tried the lipstick, but I would be game to try the rest of it too.


 

 
 
Frog Prince's tagline is "Enchanting Emerald Shades Magically Transform Into Your Perfect Fairytale Pink."  The idea is that the color will look a little bit different on everyone, but naturally become a flattering shade on everybody.  

It really does apply green.

 
I'm sure that there is some very logical wizardry behind why it applies green, but is then pink. It is shiny, but it isn't overpowering, I actually like it a lot and usually I cant stand anything that isn't matte.  Its kind of like your own lip color, but better.
 




On me it turned kind of a mauve color, but in my search of the good ol' interwebs, it ranges from light baby pink, to almost a purple color.  It looks really fresh and natural, and it does feel really good on the lips.  They aren't playing around with the beeswax.

Those bees must be union, because at $25, this is one of the more expensive lipsticks.  Even my beloved Besame will only run you $22.  This definitely falls in the "treat yo self" category.

 
As the day wore on, and with eating and drinking, the lip color got to be a lighter pink, but none of the moisture left.  It still feels brand new on my lips.
 
 
I hope when you're wearing it, you only kiss Princes (or Princesses) and no frogs!!
