Milani Power Lip Mango Tango - Review and Swatches




TGTIF (Thank God Tomorrow Is Friday, lol)!!! Looking forward to the weekend of course. It's my favorite days of the week. I just got back from Sephora, didn't really get what I wanted but got something I needed. Boo! I guess I'll look on the website.

I picked up this Milani lippie a couple weeks ago while I was shopping at Wal-Mart. I was actually surprised they had them in stock. I can't find these at CVS or Walgreens in my area yet.


Packaging
  • It comes in a pen like packaging with coordinating shade to match the lip color. You need to twist in order to dispense the product. The first time I had to do that it look like 20 something clicks before the product started peaking out of the brush applicator.
  • The brush applicator is nice I think. It's very precise, not too big or too small. 
  • I find the pen a little short. It would have been easier to handle if it was a bit longer. It is just a bit taller than a MAC lipstick.
  • .09 oz or 2.5 g

Product
  • Mango Tango is a lovely warm coral pink shade, no shimmers. I am totally digging this shade. It's bright but looks very flattering on my skin tone I think.
  • As you can tell from the swatch it is super pigmented and opaque and has a nice shine to it.
  • The color applied evenly. The gloss is a little thick but overall comfortable and non sticky
  • I didn't find it very moisturizing so I would recommend you use a good lip balm before use.
  • I get about 4 hours of wear before the top layer starts to fade. This also has a pretty good staining power that remains on the lips for an additional 4 more hours.
  • it has a very subtle sweet scent. 

Final Thought

This lip product is a combination of liquid lipstick, gloss, and stain all in one. It applies evenly and has a pretty strong staying power due to the staining ability. My only complaint is that I didn't find it very moisturizing and that the pen is a little short for handling and twisting

  1. I can't wait for the weekend either! That lip product is so cute and little! But I can see the dilemma with it being difficult to apply because of its size, but it is a very lovely color on you! Would you happen to know how many colors they had?

    1. According to Milani's website, there is 8 colors available. You just need to have a better grip when twisting the product out otherwise, it's not too bad.

  2. Such a gorgeous shade! It's coral but not so orange that I would be scared to try it! Sounds awesome, looks awesome and I'd love this in something more berry like!
