COVERGIRL x Star Wars Collection Lipstick Swatches & Review (Partial) | September 2015 | #BeautyForce

PR Sample

Covergirl x Star Wars Collection

When Fedex rings your doorbell at 8:30am, you know it’s important. In case you haven’t heard by now, CoverGirl has announced a first of it’s kind beauty collaboration with the upcoming blockbuster film, Star Wars : The Force Awakens. COVERGIRL Global Creative Design Director, Pat McGrath, designed a series of six stunning beauty looks inspired by the film , it’s iconic characters and key themes using new limited edition products from the CoverGirl Star Wars Makeup Collection & existing products.

The looks were designed to enable the hundreds of millions of female Star Wars fans to celebrate their love of the movie, transform their look, and express multiple sides of their personalities. These colors will provide the force to choose between the light side and the dark side. 

I have 3 of the 6 lipsticks to share with you today!  These are all part of the ‘dark side’ collection.

COVERGIRL x Star Wars Collection

The Colorlicious line has always been a favorite of mine. The shades are creamy, pigmented and wear well. In the dark side collection, there is one cream and 2 frosty metallic shades. The only shade with an actual name is the deep purple, which is called Stormtropper. (I also want to add – There are NO names on the bottom of these lipsticks. It is strictly just the number)

Top to Bottom : 

#50 – Stormtrooper – Deep Eggplant Purple

#30 – Friosted Red

#10 – Metallic Silver

How GORGEOUS is Stormtrooper? I am obsessed with it!

Edited To Add Quick Lip Swatches :

I am not the best at lip swatches, but I had a friend ask to do some so I figured why not! You can see from the lip swatches below, #10 settled into ALL of my lips fine lines and is very patchy. Surprisingly #30 performed the best on the lips. I HIGHLY recommend using a lip liner with #50. Because the shade is very dark, it’s a little tricky to stay in the lines.

COVERGIRL x Star Wars Collection

I cannot wait to get my hands on the rest of this collection! There are 3 additional lipstick shades (The Light Side collection), 10 Mascaras (Each with a different Star Wars quote) & 3 nail gloss shades.

COVERGIRL x Star Wars Collection

The COVERGIRL Star Wars Makeup Collection will be available online starting September 4th and in mass market, drug & food retailers starting Mid-September, while supplies last.

Will you be stalking your local drugstores to get your hands on these? May The Force Be With You!

Availability : September 4th  / Mid September

Price : $5.99-$7.99 (Lipsticks) | $5.99-$7.49 (Mascara) | $4.99-$6.99 (Nail Gloss)

    I’m not really a lipstick girl, but I might have to become one just so I can wear Stormtrooper. 😀 I’m SO excited to see what the rest of this collection looks like! Being a huge Star Wars nerd, the colors used in this collection weren’t what I expected when I first heard about this collab, but they’re really growing on me.

    Quick question though – do Covergirl lipsticks have any scent to them? I’m super sensitive to smells, especially floral/perfume-y fragrances, so putting a scented product directly under my nose is out of the question for me. 🙁

      Yes – It definitely was different than what I expected as well! I thought for sure the lipsticks would have fun names – But they don’t 🙁

      The lipsticks to me have a faint typical lipstick scent. It almost smells like baby powder.. Did that make any sense? LOL

        I know exactly what you mean by the “baby powder” smell, lol. Are their lipsticks safety-sealed? If not, I’ll probably check out the Covergirl section the next time I go to Walgreens to see if I think the scent will bother me. I’m okay with some scents, especially if they’re faint and fade really quickly, and fortunately I can usually tell right away if a smell will give me a migraine.

          haha okay good! They are safety sealed – I believe Walgreens has a pretty good return policy if you don’t like the way it smells! Once I applied it, the scent went away and I couldn’t even smell anything.

    Love the two darker ones! It’s too bad the grey is patchy, because it would’ve been a great color for a Halloween costume or something!

    I am definitely a bit disappointed in the SW collection, but being a huge fan of the movies, I’ll be buying stuff any! (So… I guess they got me.) That said, I do like the two reds more than I thought I would. The silver looks terrible alone (not surprising) but might look nice layered over another color!

    Reply
    • Jess says

      August 21, 2015 at 9:39 pm

      Yep – I was definitely bummed about the silver! I do wish they had actual names on the lipsticks though! That would have been fun!

    I think the silver one is meant to be worn over another lipstick but I could be wrong. The red is beautiful. But what I really want are your Star Wars toys.

      Oh I definitely think it is – It looks terrible on its own! And you may have to fight my toddler for them! hah

    I will be buying Stormtrooper. The red reminds me of a shade CG used to have in the older Lip Perfection line called Everlasting. Those shades were amazing and the newer line (something licious) just seems blah. Couldn’t they name all the shades, or was it a copyright issue?

    Something tells me that I’m going to need the force to be able to get Stormtrooper! I love it. What a great idea, CoverGirl! I love this collex.

    I’m thinking the Metallic Silver might be something good for popping it on the center of the lips to bring light there and add a fun touch! Can’t wait to experiment 🙂

    Too bad they don’t have names, it kind of takes away from some of the fun! (I think the silver should have been stormtrooper BTW) The red and eggplant are really pretty, the white…not so much. 🙂

    That red lippy is gorgeous… the deep red. We love Starwars in our house so I was really excited to see this when my husband shared it with me. I wish they had capitalized a bit more on the packaging… but excited to see it all nonetheless.
