Milani Orange Gina is a rare gem


I have a confession.  The lipstick I'm reviewing today…well…I have three tubes of it.

Milani Color Perfect Lipstick in Orange Gina

I know, right?!  Crazy!  Most makeup mavens don't stockpile unless the product is limited edition (LE) or being discontinued.  However, this Holy Grail product was incredibly difficult for me to find in the first place!



Story time:  I saw this color on another blog (I don't remember which) and had to have it.  I tore up every CVS in a 15 mile radius and NONE of them have Milani lipsticks.  What the heck?!  So when I went to visit my BFF in Texas, I found one there and freaked out!  Unfortunately, there was only one tube.  *sad face*

Then, when looking at Milani nail polishes when I got back to my local CVS, I saw five tubes of lipstick crammed in a corner like some forgotten stepchildren.  Upon further inspection, I saw that two of the tubes were Orange Gina!  OMG!  I snapped those suckers up.

This power product is Milani Color Perfect Lipstick in Orange Gina.

So, even though Orange Gina isn't discontinued or LE, I now have a mini stockpile.  Fortunately, this color is amazing in every sense.

When I was picking a name for this blog, this lipstick just kept popping up in my mind.  It's everything I love:  orange, attention-getting, smooth, semi-opaque, and with coppery shimmer!  Just perfection.  The color is bright and vibrant with awesome staying power.  This is a surprising "neutral" because it looks good with almost any color of eyeshadow.  

This really sings on my pale skin and I bet it'd be gorgeous on really deep complexions.

I bought mine at two different CVS stores but you can nab it on Milani's website for $4.99.
