These Ever Bilena Matte Lipsticks were purchased around late 2011 to 2012. They are almost unscented but have a very light nutty scent. The matte lipstick feels like there is minimal moisture or creaminess, and some shades need a bit of effort applying to get more pigmentation (eg. swipe three times). 

I'm generally happy with the nudes and pinks. But the reds were not so pigmented as expected... some of them look the same and Dusk was not as deep bloody red as hoped it would be (it took me 7 layers to get it!). This matte lipstick lasts only three hours and need to re-apply often.

☑ SKIN - this skin tone nude, my favorite
☑ MIRRORED MOCHA - reddish nude
☑ PINK FLAME - a barbie pink shade with blue undertone
⌧ MAUVEY - pale pink nude... people often ask me if I'm sick
⌧ PORT - a dull red with orange undertone, not very pigmented
⌧ DUSK - often looks like a berry pink than deep bloody red 

I can't say that I hate it, but can't say either that I like it...
