Orange Is Back! – Deborah Milano Rossetto Milano Red Lipstick in No. 11

If your lucky number is not 11, then it should be.

Consider this lipstick a mix of orange sassiness and red classiness. Deborah Milano Rossetto Milano Red Lipstick in No. 11 is an orange red with a hint of golden shimmer, just a tiny bit to make it all sparkle more under the sun. It has a glossy finish and a nice, creamy texture. It will match your blue shirts, your cheerful attitude and your dreams about a tropical island vacation.

Creamy orange red lipstick with a shimmery twist. I know it looks red, but trust me, this is orange.

In case you liked the shade, then …

Know that this lipstick is very comfortable to wear. It does, however, blur with time and can get over your lip line easily, but – it leaves your lips a bit pigmented for a longer period of time. Kind of like Soap&Glory SMP, just not as lasting.

Another thing I’m not a fan of – it’s slightly sheer. From afar you just see an eye-catching lip shaped orange sitting on someone’s face, so it’s not terribly obvious.

This Deborah lipstick is not pigmented enough and it doesn’t look good on chappy lips. Who cares? The shade is magnificent. Sometimes that’s enough.

Also, you have to prep your lips really good. Any flakes and dry skin will be visible the moment you apply this lippie.

Final thoughts

No. 11 is not very descriptive of this shade. But I’m very pleased with my decision to buy this lipstick.

If you’re really into orange shades, like me, then you probably won’t mind these problems with texture. This lipstick is not recommended for seasoned kissers or passionate burger eaters. I tried eating dinner rolls while wearing it, and it was doable.

However, the shade is a blast, so I recommend it.
