Make Up Forever Rouge Artist Lipsticks

Hi guys,
I have a mini haul for you. Actually I shouldn't call it a haul since there are only three items of my most recent purchase from Sephora. The other day I just needed to get a back-up eyeliner (just a basic eyeliner by Sephora in coffee.) Taking some time checking out new stuffs in the store and I found these lipsticks by Make Up Forever. Most of my lip products are drugstore as you know that I am not a big fan of high-end cosmetic. I love affordable makeups; however, I could not resist these guys because their color pay-off is so gorgeous. After swatching the samples on my hand, I picked out three and their shades are in the same color family. You can see from the pictures that are all peachy/ coral/ orange tone. I have wearing these lipsticks the last few days and I would say I do enjoy wearing them. It is strange to say that my lips are very sensitive because most of lipsticks out there would suck the life out of my lips and leave them chapped, cracked and uncomfortable. So most of the time I would  go for tinted lip balms instead.  And I'm so glad I got these guys because they are very moisturizing as well as very pigmented so I enjoy the color pay-off more than tinted lip balms. Also they are all my favorite shades which are so hard to pass up.  I love peachy/ coral/ orange tone lip products and they work perfectly for me in term of not leaving me looking pale and sick like pink tone and cool tone lipsticks do. Because my skin is yellow under tone, I never look good with pink tone or cool tone lipsticks. And it's even harder for me to find a nude shade that flatters.
Each of these lipstick is $20 at Sephora. And it's my first time trying Make Up Forever lip products so I was a bit skeptical and only chose three shades. There is a quite large collection of these lipsticks with a variety of shades. Awesome! I will definitely check them out and hopefully expand my own collection of Make Up Forever lipsticks. 
*Little side note: I love the packaging, it's so sleek. It feels nice in your hand and very sturdy as well, it's not something would easily break. Also, it really bothers me if I'm wearing lipsticks smell weird or too over powering. And the scent of these lipsticks is very nice, it's not something to overwhelming which I can't take.
 Below are pictures and swatches:
 Make Up Forever Rouge Artist Natural N40 Pastel Coral
I'm so glad I've finally found my perfect nude shade :) This lipstick is actually the most moisturizing among all.

 Make Up Forever Rouge Artist Natural N41 Watermelon
 This shade look a bit too orange in picture but it is a very soft and warm shade of peach color with a slightest hint of pink. This is my favorite among all three.
***
Make Up Forever Rouge Artist Intense N39 Satin Orange Coral
This is the most pigmented lipstick among all. I love this shade so much of how it give my face a very "just right" pop of color when I'm wearing very neutral eye make-up. It looks a bit reddish on camera but trust me this is a truly perfect coral shade.
Thanks for reading!
