I can't believe we are sitting in mid January already, time is flying, second week back at work is just as hard. How fast did the weekend go?! My week and a half off during Christmas spoiled me!
When my friend returned from her trip to Malaysia, she brought me back two lippies from Covo Cosmetics - this is a brand that I have never heard of before. I was super curious after seeing the adorable packaging!
Both Covo Moist Madness SPF 18 Lipstick and Covo Goddess Gloss possess an in-built mirror to ease application on the go!

VERDICT: Covo Moist Madness Lipstick in Sheer Chiffon
This lipstick is incredibly moisturising. Re-application is recommended every couple of hours as my lips did demonstrate some minor dryness after 2 hours at work.
As per it's name, this lipstick was gorgeously sheer. Sheer Chiffon seemed to be slightly lighter than my lip colour upon application, however, the shade warmed up and gave me a light wash of apricot, I loved it. The colour will last up to 2-3 hours without eating or drinking, although it is not designed to be a long-lasting lipstick.
The texture of this lippie may seem waxy at first but once you apply a few layers it's actually quite creamy! Scent wise, this lipstick smelt like candy and toffee, delicious! Overall, I really like this lipstick, it's the perfect everyday wear!
VERDICT: Covo Goddess Gloss - Empress Coral
I have mixed feelings about this gloss, it's non-sticky, super glossy, compact (perfect for your purse), smells like jelly babies with a 30 degree angle wand.... BUT... it's difficult to blend when applied over lipstick. When I say blend I mean that it doesn't spread easily, I got a small clump here and a small clump there to the point I had to lightly blot my lips. It's not too bad if you apply the gloss directly onto your lips.

I'm not too sure where you can get Covo Cosmetics from Australia, but if you are traveling to Malaysia - definitely stop by to check out their Moist Madness Lipstick, I've been using it everyday for the past week, it's addictive!
