UOMA Beauty Bahia & Trinidad Black Magic Metallic Lipsticks Reviews & Swatches

Bahia

UOMA Beauty Bahia Black Magic Metallic Lipstick ($26.00 for 0.12 oz.) has a medium-dark, plummy red base with warmer undertones and green-gold shimmer and glitter throughout that had both a shiny, metallic finish along with plenty of sparkles. It had semi-opaque color coverage, though it appeared a bit more opaque to my eye in person due to the amount of sparkle in it.

The consistency looked rather textured, especially along the sides of the lipstick itself, but the slanted tip was much smoother than anticipated. If you loathe any texture at all, then it would likely be noticeable to you. I found it to be fairly smooth, certainly comfortable enough to work with that it wasn’t painful or scratchy to apply directly from the tube. It went on fairly evenly and stayed on nicely for five and a half hours. The formula felt lightly moisturizing while worn.

Formula Overview

$26.00/0.12 oz. - $216.67 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "explosive color and rave worthy shine" that is "comfortable and plush on the lips." The pigmentation was semi-opaque to opaque, depending on shade, and most applied evenly. A few shades could have been more even, especially on the inner portion of my lips, but they were often sparkly enough that it was less noticeable in person than it could have been.

The texture varied from finer and smoother to slightly more textured (not sharp or painful to use, but a few shades were chocked full of larger glitter) but comfortable enough to apply and to wear. If one was particularly sensitive to the feel of sparkle/glitter, it might not be the best formula to reach for. They wore from four to six hours and felt lightly hydrating over time. I didn't have issues with noticeable glitter migration or travel. They had a sweet, creme brulee scent but no discernible taste.

Trinidad

UOMA Beauty Trinidad Black Magic Metallic Lipstick ($26.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a vivid, medium-dark fuchsia with strong, cool undertones and flecks of gold and lighter fuchsia glitter and shimmer throughout. It had nearly opaque color coverage in a single layer, which applied evenly and smoothly across my lips with minimal texture (it looked more textured in the tube than it actually was on the slanted tip).

The texture was lightly creamy, dense without being firm, and still lighter-weight, which made it comfortable to wear. There was a smidgen of product that sank into my deeper lip lines but not enough to be noticeable in person. It wore well for over six hours, left a stain behind, and was lightly hydrating over time.
