Not only is the lipstick super high quality, but the collection is all about Goddesses, which I<\/em> am all about. The boxes that the lipstick comes in say, “Born to Be Worshipped” on the back, can you believe it? And each DeVine Goddess Lipstick is named after a different mythological Goddess.The theme has me, just as much as the actual lipstick does.<\/p>\n The tubes that the colors come in are definitely unique; they kind of have a glassy, art deco feel. They don’t fit in my lipstick organizer, which I always find a bit upsetting. But these lipsticks are so delectable that I suppose they deserve places all their own on my boudoir table. Because the cases are unconventional, I suggest being extra careful when twisting the lipstick up and applying. I broke my Calypso<\/em> almost immediately, by twisting it too far up and pressing too hard on my lips. Guess I was excited. I also recommend blotting once or twice, after application, in order to avoid getting lipstick prints all over everything. Unless you are into that sort of thing.<\/p>\n Pictured below from left to right, we have Aphrodite<\/em>, Xenia<\/em>, and Calypso<\/em>.<\/p>\n napoleon perdis devine goddess lipstick<\/p><\/div>\n I love each of these colors, both in and of themselves, as well as with my complexion. I have had Aphrodite<\/em> the longest, and it is definitely one of my all-time favorite reds. I would call it a deep, true red. Really rich pigment, and a kind of femme fatale vibe. I just recently received Xenia, <\/em>which I foresee quickly becoming one of my most-worn colors. It is what I’d call a berry red; red with just a hint of magenta. It would look good on anyone who looks good with berry-colored lips; really pretty, flirty, and sexy. At first glance, it appeared to be too similar to Aphrodite<\/em>, but the hues are actually quite different. Calypso <\/em>is a deep pink, with a definite hint of magenta. If it were any lighter, it might not look good on me, but the hue is deep enough that it works really well.<\/p>\n Here are some more photos, including swatches.

Napoleon Perdis also makes some of my absolute favorite lip glosses, which I hope to do a separate review of, at some point. Finally, I recommend following The Man, Himself<\/a> on Twitter; he tweets some really great quotes and is a worthy follow for beauty addicts and philosophers, alike.<\/p>\n Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing in my passion.<\/p>\n xox, Let me just say: O. M. G. DECADENCE. Napoleon Perdis DeVine Goddess Lipstick is highly pigmented, luxury lipstick with a super smooth texture and intoxicating fragrance.
