PURPLE LIPSTICK at its finest ladies and gentlemen!!! Matte & lasts forever. True purple/may lean warm but looks great on my pinky skin.

A daring and lovely weird color. This is not for everyone, but for purple lovers it is a must have. Even though it is purple, it is kind of a neutral purple? Really, I can see some warm undertones on ...Read more

My favourite lipstick shade EVER! I use this with the matching lip pencil and it’s a strong, bold but very wearable purple shade. It’s long lasting but can get dry on the lips as it’s in a matte finis...Read more

I absolutely love this lipstick. It is in the purple/plum colored family and reminds me of the color of a purplish orchid flower. It's beautiful on, but intimidatingly bright in the tube. Don't let...Read more

I just bought my 2nd Heroine and I have grown to love this shade. I admit it was a little scary at first because of the bold purple color, but it comes out a beautiful purple violet shade on me. It is...Read more

When I first tried this lipstick I didn't like it. Originally I had purchased MAC Lipglass in Heroine, this is bright purple/magenta and really suited me. It brightened up my skin and face. So I got t...Read more

This is one of the prettiest lipsticks I own, and I got it for free because a friend didn't want it. It is a bit daunting at first wearing Heroine when you're not used to wearing a lot of brightly col...Read more

This is the most beautiful and flattering deep shade of purple. It looks scary in the tube but is surprisingly easy to wear. I think this lipstick would flatter so many skin tones. It is matte but cre...Read more
