"Begin applying from the center of your upper lips and work your way to the outer edges. Same application is used for your bottom lips. Tip: Lipliner helps extend the wear & keeps your lipstick from feathering. When choosing a lipliner shade, match the lipliner to your lipstick shade or match your lipliner to the shade of your lips which will work with all your lipstick shades. Create a custom lipcolor by using a contrasting lipliner and lipstick shade."

Overall Thoughts:
Happy Winesday! The Milani Cosmetics Color Statement Lipstick in 21 - Sangria is and forever shall be my wine partner in crime. After I had a small little break from Milani Cosmetics last week, I am back embracing this little gem and reigniting my love for the brand. During the Halloween season, I may or may not have gone a bit crazy (depends on your definition of crazy) and purchased a crap ton of darker lipstick shades that were definitely out of my nude comfort zone. I do not regret my decision one bit. Over the weekend, I attended a wine tasting. I decided to pair this glorious deep wine red color with a top knot and a killer winged eyeliner. This color applied smoothly and was moisturizing. Although upon initial application, it was a wee bit patchy but eventually it set evenly after a few layers. Sangria's finish can be described as a glossy, semi-matte. It did not settle into my lip lines nor did it cling onto any dry patches on my lip. Sangria is very lightweight and lasted for about 7 hours long. Maybe wine could be attributed to its longlasting powers but I highly doubt it. This shade was true to the color swatch and selection on the bottom of the tube. My only complaint is that it can make teeth appear slightly yellow. Yes, there is staining and transfer and smudging oh my but come on now have we not turn a blind eye to these things before? I know I have. I don't know about you but in my experience it is getting harder and harder to find certain Milani products at my local drugstores. I feel like they have been coming out with new stuff and just completely doing away with some permanent items. I really hope this changes soon cause I love 99.9995% of the whole collection and have been slowly trying to complete my collection.
