Gabriel Cosmetics Lipstick (Clay)

Most red lipstick for redheads is either clownish bright orange or has too much pink, or brown. This is a perfect color for redheads! It's so hard to find natural looking lip colors for redheads that flatter our skin color! I love this brand because it's natural with good ingredients unlike most of the other brands. I've only bought this color for years, and I Love it! I use it with petroleum free chapstick under and over to seal in moisture.

I’ve been a longtime user of their competitor’s product (real purity) which I also like but they seemed to have changed their passion color which I was using, so I tried Gabriel. Pros of Gabriel: the color lasted a lot longer, held up after blotting and eating, and so far at least hasn’t been as mushy as Real purity (whose lipsticks sometimes break off the base.) Also, I like the color options better than the current palette of real purity offerings which seem to be catering to ‘cottage core punk’ or purple haired types. I just want understated roses and pinks for a not overly made up look (and the occasional redder color for the Christmas holiday) and found three understated roses/pink colors in Gabriel. Cons of Gabriel: possibly not as ‘clean’ as real purity (but still better than most lipsticks), and after buying three, sometimes the colors aren’t exactly as expected from the marketing, but once I figure them out it’ll be ok for repeat buying the ones that actually look best. I had the same problem with real purity when I first tried them, but to my knowledge Gabriel doesn’t have cheap samples to try before investing in the actual lipstick tube. Of the three tubes I bought, I can live with Gabriel’s colors that I liked less as they’re still be good for various occasions (one is a little too bright pink but for the spring it will be fine). Real purity has to be used within a couple years or they kind of ‘go off’ as maybe the natural oils in them go rancid just like a food product, which is how pure they are. If it hadn’t been that they changed the color I mainly used (and many of the others on offer are too garish looking for me like bright lavender) I probably wouldn’t have tried Gabriel because I’m a creature of habit. I haven’t had Gabriel lipsticks that long, but I do like the colors and the performance for those occasions when I do wear lipstick. If I have to update I will in the future, but right now I think Gabriel is pretty great.

My favorite brand of lipstick for years! It's quality made, naturally sourced, mineral based, creamy smooth going on and it lasts!

I used to buy them at the PCC up in the Puget Sound area. =)

Great coverage that lasts, no overwhelming perfumes which I love. Only negative comment is that there aren't enough color choices- I have a difficult time finding colors that match my skin tone.

So hard to find a lipstick without artificial dyes for my daughter (for dance) and this was PERFECT!! The color was vibrant, stayed on well, and went on smoothly!! Can’t wait to try more products! Thank you for making clean make up and not costing a fortune!!

The color was supposed to be copper, but it was a light frosted pink. Awful! Very drying as well.

Unfortunately not what I had anticipated. Packaging and lipstick unit was quality materials. Not cheap feeling. Lipstick was just not the color it showed online once applied to the lip. It was much more sheer and not opaque. I applied it over concealed lips and still just didn't have the color Pay off I was looking for. No smell or anything over bearing. I will say, I thought the lipstick was a bit waxy or sticky for my preference but I tend to gravitate more toward dry matte formulas. $20 is a bit more than what i typically spend on a singular lipstick, but I liked the color so I was willing to try. I think it's over priced tbh. For $5 you can go to Mac and get the best lipsticks or your life so with that said - 3/5. It's just okay.

Gabriel makes some of the best makeup out there (natural and otherwise). I regularly use and love their mascara, eyeshadows, lip pencils, and lipsticks. Their products contain only natural ingredients and never irritate my sensitive skin. This lipstick is a gorgeous, highly pigmented deep red shade that goes on smooth and lasts all day. I believe this lipstick really moisturizes the lips as well; my chapped lips seem even better after wearing it than they do after wearing lip balm.
