Nouba lipstick

Cosmetics of the Italian brand Nouba is one of the most popular at the moment. Since its founding in 1978, it has gained popularity primarily due to its long-lasting lipsticks with a wide palette of shades.

There is a legend according to which the founder of the company, Rosie Armanini, traveled around Africa and was inspired by the achievements of body art of one of the tribes of Northern Sudan.

Most of the models are distinguished by their characteristics and color, while the design of all products is in a conservative black color, creating a contrast between the packaging and its contents. These are mostly convenient cases with tight lids that fit in any cosmetic bag.

The composition of all models includes not only synthetic components, traditional for modern cosmetics, but also various natural additives. Various oils and extracts do not allow the skin to lose its health and youth under the influence of decorative cosmetics, even with constant use.

Traditionally, the shelf life of lipstick is 3 years. Representatives of the company recommend, especially in cases where the numbers on the packaging are erased during use, replace the lipstick with a new one after two years from the date of purchase.

Nouba Millebaci is a range of waterproof liquid lipsticks with an applicator, most of which have a velvety matte texture. What makes this lipstick sustainable is the special composition and the use of advanced technologies in the production, which allow you to create cosmetics that do not harm the body, as is often the case with cheap waterproof products.

Another liquid lipstick of this brand - Nouba Shine Impact. It also belongs to the super-resistant, but it differs from "Millebaci" in the wide shape of the applicator. At "Millebaci" it has a pointed end, which allows you not to bother looking for a suitable lip contour, but to use the lipstick itself for this - a win-win solution! In addition, this tool is often used as an eyeliner.

In addition, the brand has lipsticks in the form of a stick of traditional and rectangular shapes.

The brand is constantly developing, replenishing with new and new lines. For example, this year the company pleased its fans with a new lipstick "Velvet Touch Lipstick". The line "Noubashine Lipstylo" was also presented in the spring-summer 2017 collection. It includes four shades - two bright reds, cyclamen and rich gold.

Separately, you can highlight the line "Nouba Plumping Gloss Stick", which visually increases the volume. Its delicate, creamy texture with a slight sheen creates the effect of moisturized lips.Castor oil and hyaluronic acid, which are part of the composition, at the same time affect the skin in the most positive way, slowing down the aging process.

Another specific series of the brand is "Rouge Bijou". These lipsticks are distinguished by the fact that the case is equipped with a small mirror that allows you to touch up makeup anywhere and anytime. However, at the same time, it is one of the most unstable of this brand, so a mirror is a necessary attribute if you plan to use lipstick for a long time. It is so small that it will not allow you to see the whole face, but it is ideal for touching up lip makeup.

A wide palette of colors accommodates more traditional shades, but among them you can find all shades of red and brown. One of the most popular among lipsticks "Nouba Millebaci Long lasting lip color" are shades with numbers #28 and #47. The first is at the junction of scarlet and carrot, the second is close to cherry.

In the line "Nouba Millebaci long lasting lip cream" you can find the original red - No. 48, which can change depending on the lighting. In the same series, you can find a very beautiful plum - No. 6, which is perfect for owners of the color of "warm autumn". And No. 9 rightfully gained fame as "the real red."

The color palette of "Nouba Shine Impact" is significantly inferior in the number of shades to other series, but its advantage is a glossy effect, which is great for evening looks.

The first thing to do before choosing cosmetics is to determine your color type. To do this, you will need to do a test or resort to the help of a professional stylist. This is necessary first of all in order to choose the right shades of cosmetics, and this applies to everything - from the tonal foundation to the shadows and lipstick. Incorrectly chosen colors can give your face a tired, sickly look and emphasize skin imperfections - wrinkles, redness, age spots.

The main feature of color types is "warmth". If warm shades prevail in your appearance (skin color, hair, eyes), then most cold shades are categorically contraindicated for you. Conversely, with a “cold” appearance, warm shades of cosmetics may not create the effect that you would like. Therefore, your primary task is to decide which of the 16 color types you belong to.

The second step is to decide for what purpose you intend to buy lipstick. Will it be an everyday option or will the tone be chosen for ceremonial exits or holidays. If you are looking for everyday lipstick, you will have to choose the tone as carefully as possible. It should work well with skin color in both day and night, as well as in different lighting conditions, blend harmoniously with your style of clothing and fit within the dress code, if there is one in your working environment.

In the second case, everything is somewhat simpler - knowing your color type and the intended outfit, you can easily understand which shades you need to pay attention to in the first place. All of them have their own number, which can be found on the bottom of the package.

Keep in mind that the store may not have the tone you need in stock, so just in case, choose a few that are close in color - Nouba lines make it easy to do this. The choice is simplified by the fact that cosmetics samples are provided in stores, which allow you to get to know both the color of the lipstick and its texture. With the help of these samples, you can take swatches that will help you make your final decision. Under current law, stores must necessarily allow the buyer to familiarize themselves with the products before buying them.

You can buy Nouba products in almost any cosmetic store. As a rule, the price of Nouba lipsticks ranges from 1000 to 1500 rubles.

For about the same cost, they can be purchased in the company's Italian online stores. This is especially true for those who live in small towns and are forced to look for the necessary shades through the Web.

Nouba's long-wear lipsticks consistently delight the girls who buy them. With this, they have earned themselves the title of one of the most popular brands of waterproof cosmetics. The main advantage is always called really impressive durability. In addition, lipsticks of all lines dry quickly, do not dry out lips, and some, on the contrary, contain various plant extracts (for example, aloe leaf extract and papaya extract in the 2017 Unconventional Glam collection) that nourish and moisturize the skin.

So, for example, during use, some shades form lumps and exfoliate on the inside of the lips - where the border of the oral mucosa begins.Persistence even in different tones of the same line is different. And when taking excessively oily and fatty foods, lipstick may begin to spread. There are also difficulties with applying some lipsticks due to too liquid consistency, as well as insufficient velvety.
