By the way, i absolutely love the quotes they have in each lipstick !! Packaging is sturdy and classy, even though its black, it has asymmetrical design on the bottom of the lipstick. I have no complaints with the packaging, since i have carried it in my purse a lot of times.

The shade La La land is described as "nude rose" ; the swatch in their official website is a bit too dark, but the actual shade is a perfect nude rose. While purchasing this shade, i was skeptical, cause i haven't tried much nude shades as they tend to wash me out completely. But this is an exceptional shade, its a perfect combination of brown+pink, and toned down to a level where you can get a 'nude' lip look. As far as texture and staying power is concerned, I already love these lipsticks since they are opaque, give full coverage, are moisturizing, and stays for good 3hrs. 

The shade will easily suit fair-medium girls, and i'm NC 43.5 (with pigmented lips) but still it works perfect for me !! Following is a single swatch.

I'm looking forward to buy more of these lipsticks as and when StrawberryNet stocks more shades. Totally loving these lipsticks.

Have you tried Benefit Lipsticks ??

Godbless !!
