New from Kat Von D is a line of "innovative lipstick that coats lips with bold color". The Studded Kiss Lipstick ($26 CAD) range features 30 shades of long-wear lipsticks and today I am reviewing a cult favorite called "Noble", a "matte petal pink nude". To see some swatches and my thoughts, click.......
Packaging:Like all Kat Von D products, the Studded Kiss Lipstick is pretty badass. The bullet is made of shiny black plastic and the outside is molded with square stud shapes. The top of the cap bears the KVD logo in fancy letterings.

Kat Von D Studded Kiss Lipstick in "Noble" |
Noble is a neutral pale pink nude. The lipstick is pigmented but the formulation is quite dry with a silicone-y texture. Mattes are tricky and matte nudes are especially hard to make but this one really lacked the creaminess and smoothness one would expect from a quality lipstick.

Overall:
This one is not great, the packaging is lovely but the formulation was too dry for my liking.
