I have finally got around to do this haul post! I have CP'd for Strong Woman, Absolute Power and Apres Chic lipsticks because I have missed out on them online and in stores. I was really happy at that time and was so estatic! So heree are my thoughts on each item below:
Absolute Power: This is a very stunning red! It is described as a rich red and it's a Matte finish. This lipstick reminded me of Charmed I'm Sure on my lips and will have to compare with both soon! I love how it looks on my lips since it looks dark in it's appearance like Runaway Red but when applied looking like a cherry bright red shade.
Strong Woman: Gorgeous color! It is decribed as a bright violet and it's a Matte finish. I adore this shade a lot! I thought this would look like Violetta or like Seducitve Intent Mattene from Taste Temptations but since I don't own Seductive Intent, I can't compare but will compare it with Violetta soon.
Apres Chic: Amazing color! It is decribed as a pinky brick red and it's a Cremesheen finish. This shade is more of a warm toned red than pink. I do adore this shade and I don't think I have anything similar to this shade in my stash.
Hot Chocolate: Interesting shade! It is described as a midtone plum and it's a Satin finish. So happy that I got this shade and plus this lipstick being worn alone looks great and this can also be worn with lip liners like MAC Currant or Vino.
Alpine Bronze Mineralize Blush: This Mineralize Blush is so gorgeous!! It is decribed as a midtone caramel. I love that this blush is pigmented and has a sheen to it! I wore this blush today and I love it!! I'm so glad that I didn't skip this blush!
Here are swatches below:
Hope you enjoyed this post! Do you own any of these items?

I love Strong Woman, Apres Chic, and Hot Chocolate... especially Hot Chocolate, it's so interesting and yet pretty at the same time.
I think I got most of those, i've been so busy I haven't even opened my box yet!
Alpine bronze is just too gorgeous!!
Nice haul! I want Strong Woman lipstick but Strength collection is not yet available in Belgium!
Absolute power is my fav out of the lip swatches. Gorgeous!
Can't wait for a comparison post!
