New Faces Glam On Lipstick Barely There Review, Swatches & Price
Packaging
The revamped packaging of the new Faces Glam on Lipsticks comes in a clear plastic casing which has a metallic finish towards the the bottom. It comes with a color coded sticker at the bottom which eases identification a bit. The new packaging is much better from the old boring one and I quite prefer this sleeker and classier version. The bullet is thinner than your average lipstick and had a slanted tip.
Shade
Faces Glam On Lipstick Barely There is a tricky color to describe. When I swatch it, the color looks like a coral nude with a slight pink undertone. However, on my lips its a peachy nude color which is very flattering for my skintone and many of you have been asking me about this color everytime I post an FOTD with it. However, it will definitely be a bit pale for dusky beauties and maybe for those with a wheatish skintone as well so its best to try it out before buying it.
Texture
The new Faces Glam On Color Perfect Lipsticks have a creamy texture which is very hydrating. Those with dry lips will love it and the lipstick does not settle into lip lines either. It gives a semi-glossy finish which is very lightweight and comfortable to wear.
Pigmentation
The Faces Barely There Glam On Lipstick gives a good color pay off for a nude lipstick. You need a couple of swipes for a semi opaque finish which covers moderate lip pigmentation to a good extent. The pigmentation is buildable and the coverage is pretty decent.
Staying Power
Since the Faces Glam On Lipstick has a creamy finish, it tends to transfer easily and fades quickly incase you have a meal. It does survive small snacks or drinks but after a meal you will need to touch it up. I get an average of 3-4 hours of wear time from this particular shade though I’ve read that the darker colors last much longer.
For the price tag of Rs 549, it can be a wee bit steep considering the staying power. However, I love the color, the texture and the finish hence the price is not a big issue with me.

HBM Rating
HBM Recommendation: Faces Glam On Barely There Lipstick is a beautiful peachy-nude lipstick which flatters light-fair skintone extremely well. It looks great for everyday wear or for pairing it with smokey eyes. The creamy texture is hydrating and comfortable to wear. The only issue is that it might wash out dusky complexion hence do try this at the store before buying it.
