I forgot to mention in my last review that this lipstick also moisturises your lips wonderfully. There's no need for any lip salves or balms etc. Your lips feel so soft and smooth. (Posted on 11/26/11)

The lipstick was rich in colour and went on smoothly. It is not heavy or thick and glides on easily. The great thing about it is that even if you lick it or swallow it when eating you know its all natural harmless stuff and not chemicals going inside you. Great lippy. (Posted on 11/26/11)

I owe an apology for a previous review of Paul Penders lipstick in which I said I was not happy with it. To my dismay I found after that I had reviewed the wrong lipstick and the Paul Penders one was the better of the two, but I could not find how to set the record straight.

REPLY from Amanda: Many thanks for this Stella! I am really pleased that you found our Paul Penders lipstick to be up to scratch - we certainly think so too! Thanks for getting back in touch. (Posted on 11/9/11)

the texture and the cover of the lipstick is absolutely fantastic :-), but the colour is totally different from what is decribed and expected :-(
could do with a better, more accurate colour chart

REPLY from Amanda: Sorry that the colour was not what you expected. We are always happy to send out colour smudges so that you can see the colours properly - it is difficult to get an accurate colour online because all computers/browsers are different. However, we will look at this again, and will try to improve in this area. Thank you for the feedback. (Posted on 11/27/10)

I would call this shade a peachy colour rather than the bluish pink described on the website. Never the less it is a pretty colour but unfortunately it doesnt stay on my lips for longer than half an hour and disappears immediately when I have a cup of tea.

REPLY from Amanda: Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry you are not happy with the lipstick - I am not sure which colour you bought but it is very difficult to show the lipstick colours accurately online - this is why we offer to send our colour smudges free of charge. Please do feel free to return the lipstick and we will try to find another colour which you prefer, or we can refund your money.
N.B. Natural lipsticks do not stay on as long as artificial colours unfortunately, and we always suggest reapplying after drinking and eating. Each person is also very different - for instance, I always seem to 'eat' my lipstick off my lips, hence I would rather have one without the chemicals in! (Posted on 11/5/10)

I bought the tea rose lipstick as soon as it was available again. It's a very pretty, gentle, faintly bluish pink. I've been using it a lot already because it seems to tone well with most colours I wear. (Posted on 9/25/10)

I have bought the lipstick in the shade tea rose. I love it! It is so Natural. It's gorgeous. I have made another order and bought others three lipstick from Paul Penders collection. (Posted on 5/19/10)

Gorgeous creamy lipstick does not have the nasty synthetic taste and smell of other lipsticks. Long lasting, gives an amazing clean, sheer look. I love it and will never use another product! (Posted on 4/22/10)

My biggest problem is that I cannot see the correct colour on the pc, as the lipstick I chose was not the shade I had wanted even thought it seemed all right on the advert. Also it is not as smooth as conventional lipsticks though I could put up with that. It's quite pricey too.

REPLY from Amanda: We do appreciate your comments - makeup is extraordinarily difficult to order online because of colour matching. We offer a service whereby we can send out little 'smudges' of the lipstick, eyeshadow etc. so that before you purchase you can actually see the colours on a piece of card. Just email us to let us know which colours you would like to see. Natural and organic lipsticks are more expensive than mainstream products because the ingredients used to make them are so expensive and pure. The Paul Penders lipsticks are currently on offer though, so it may be a good time to try! (Posted on 4/1/10)
