Dose of Colors Desi x Katy Aftermath & Hey Girl Lipsticks Reviews & Swatches

Aftermath

Dose of Colors Aftermath Desi x Katy Lipstick ($16.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a medium, copper-brown with warm undertones and a satin finish. It had opaque color coverage in a single layer, though the consistency was denser and firmer, so it tugged a bit during application but was workable–just not the creamiest or most comfortable to use. The lipstick felt lightweight on and didn’t feel drying while worn, which was a nice surprise. It wore well for five and a half hours.

Hey Girl

Dose of Colors Hey Girl Desi x Katy Lipstick ($16.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a medium-dark peach with soft, warm undertones and a satin finish. The pigmentation was good with full color coverage in one layer that applied evenly, though it separated slightly along m y lip lines (but wasn’t noticeable from a normal viewing distance). The lipstick was smooth, dense, and firmer, so it did tug on my lips while I applied it but not quite to the point where it was painful or difficult to apply. It lasted nicely for four and a half hours and was non-drying over time.
