When I attended The Australian Beauty Bloggers Weekend last year, we were lucky enough to get a sneak peek at the new shades in the Face of Australia Lip Quench SPF 30+ lipstick collection during the Face of Australia masterclass run by lovely brand manager Tina. Being as awesome as she is, Tina remembered that I fell in love with the lippies and very kindly surprised me with one when they were released!! I have my review of Lychee Crush for you today.


What they say:

"Enriched with natural moisturisers and emollients including Jojoba Oil, Vitamin E & Shea Butter, this rich, creamy lipstick provides beautiful colour in a hydrating formula that protects your lips from harmful UV rays.

Nourishes and protects whilst delivering smooth, even colour that caresses the curves of your lips. Maintain soft and supple lips and protect them from the ageing effects of the sun for totally kissable lips."


The Lip Quench SPF 30+ lipsticks are packaged in a rubberised black case with a lid that has a clear insert in the top (you can see it clearly in my first picture). This is absolutely fantastic because it makes storing so much easier. I can see exactly which lippie I'm grabbing! Great for 1st thing in the morning when I'm half awake lol.


Lychee Crush is a gorgeous peachy nude. It's a fantastic nude colour with peachy tones so it's warmer than other nudes shades out there. No concealer lips here!

Overall: I LOVE Lychee Crush! It is such a gorgeous shade and since receiving it I've worn it many many times! I love that it doesn't wash me out which I find with other nude shades. The formula is very creamy and easy to apply. There's a slight scent to the lipstick which is pleasant - it reminds me of my mum's old lipsticks that I used to steal to try out when I was younger xp It brings back good memories! It wears reasonably well but I do find I need to reapply after a 3-4hours. The standout is that it contains SPF 30+ which is so important in sunny Aus. There's a great selection of colours too - from gorgeous pinks and nudes to vampy reds. For less than $10 what is not to love!

Details: Face of Australia Lip Quench SPF 30+ lipsticks are available now in 13 shades from Priceline, Big W, Kmart stores and online from fashionaddict.com.au for $9.45.

Thank you so much Tina for sending Lychee Crush my way to try out! If you haven't tried these yet I suggest you do. Malibu Barbie and Pink Champagne are the other shades I suggest trying out!

Thanks for looking as always!
