Lorac Unzipped Cheek & Lip Review

February 6, 2015

I recently spotted the new Lorac Unzipped Cheek & Lip palette while looking at my Instagram feed.  From the moment I laid my eyes on the photos I knew I had to get the palette.  The palette is available only at Ulta Cosmetics for $30.  The box says that this is a $116 value.  The box contains a blush palette and a lipstick.  There are four gorgeous blushes in the palette.  The palette is made of cardboard and has a nice mirror in the top.  Two of the blues are matte and two are shimmer.  The shades can be seen below.

Swatches Left to Right:  Girl Next Door Lipstick, Unapologetic, Unimaginable, Underrated and Unashamed Blushes

What did I think?

I think the blush palette is gorgeous.  The colors are flattering for all skin tones.  They provide a nice pop of color for the cheeks.  You can mix the colors to create your own shade.  They can be applied sheer or built up for more color payoff.  The box type palette is great for travel.  I have different thoughts on the lipstick in this set.  I found the formula to be quite dry and cakey looking on my lips.  This particular shade is not one that all women can pull off.  I think Lorac Cosmetics hit it out of the park with the blush palette but could have skipped the lipstick or used a different formula. At $30 for the entire set, I think it’s a good deal because you’ll get a lot of wear from the variety of blushes.

    You know, I don’t own any Lorac blushes! I love Unapologetic! Yes, I couldn’t wear that lipstick shade either. I may have to have a swatch next time I’m in Ulta!

      Now this is one that I just love! The blush colors are fun. I’ve been mixing colors together for some different looks too. I’m still playing with the lipstick though. So far I don’t care for it. Stacie xo

      I think this blush palette is a definite winner. I’m still working with the lipstick though to get it to work better for me. I’m loving the new link up! Thanks for doing it! Stacie xo

    I saw this at Ulta, didn’t know it included a lipstick. I really didn’t take a good luck tho, because I was there to check out another palette. But I’m happy to read your review, I might have to go back and grab this one! I don’t have a lot of blushes, so that sounds like a good reason to include in my collection! I like the idea that I could mix colors for a great cheek color! Thank you for sharing!

I’ve been using the Olay Micro-Sculpting Cream, and I love how hydrated, smooth and refreshed my skin looks and feels. Our skin changes as we age and keeping it moisturized with effective ingredients is one of the simplest ways I keep mine looking firmer, smoother, healthier and more radiant at 61 years old.

The @olay Micro-Sculpting Cream has triple collagen peptides, niacinamide and pro-vitamin B5 to support younger looking skin.

If you’re looking for dramatic results without taking drastic measures, then this is a moisturizer you will be impressed with. It layers beautifully under makeup and delivers lasting hydration.
