Hi, beauties! Today I’ll be reviewing one of the lipsticks from the new Milani Color Statement Lipsticks range. This line is meant to replace their old lipsticks. The formula is different and so is the packaging. Milani redid their old shades and also added some new ones. I believe Fruit Punch is a new shade. The new packaging is much nicer than the old one and the formula is creamier and more opaque. I think the only thing that put me off was the new scent.
Color
Fruit Punch is stunning! I knew it would be because I looked at many swatches beforehand. It definitely did not disappoint color-wise. It’s a medium warm-toned watermelon pink. It’s a bit bright making it a statement lipstick but it’s still subdued enough to be an everyday shade. It’s definitely no MAC Impassioned (in terms of brightness).
Formula
I think the formula is nice. The wear time is average. Fruit Punch seems creamier than the old Milani lipsticks, but I thought it felt a touch waxy upon application. Alhtough It could be this particular color.
Scent
The old Milani lipsticks had that 90’s “lipstick” scent. Sadly, I didn’t find an improvement in the scent department. I found Fruit Punch’s scent to be too strong. They definitely tried to make it fragrant but to me it smells like kids’ makeup. I read that it’s supposed to be watermelon.
Overall
I’m not usually sensitive to scents but I really don’t like this one! However, that’s a very personal preference. You might find it fruity and delicious. If you’re looking for a watermelon pink (and aren’t bothered by strong scents) then I recommend Fruit Punch.
Have you tried the new Milani Color Statement Lipsticks? Did you like them? Have a lovely week!

Gorgeous shade on you, so natural ^^ Thanks a lot for the review. I've actually been eyeing this new range by Milani, don't know why because I'm not a lipstick person LOL but I think the packaging caught my attention : )
They are comfortable so even if you don't like wearing lipsticks you might like it 🙂
It's a beautiful shade ! Perfect for spring !
Hm, the scent smells like a true watermelon scent to me. I wonder if you got a weird one..
It's not that it doesn't smell like watermelon, it's that I find it too potent while I apply it. Plus it's like a fake watermelon (like Jolly Rancher) xx
ooh I love this colour on you! So pretty 🙂 I've never heard of this range but I'll definitely be checking it out after reading this! Xx
this is such a pretty color! I'm all about the bright pinks for spring. My current favorite is Cover Girl's Fairy Tale
The swatches online look really pretty 🙂
I have been hearing about these lipsticks nonstop lately!! Makes me think I need to pick one up haha. And shame that the scent of yours is so overpowering… that's the first I've heard anything about the scent so thanks for the heads up!

such a pretty colour! really nice shade of pink!
Check out my latest OOTD 🙂
Wow! The arm swatch makes this lip color appear like it will go on lips super intense, when in reality, the brightness is subdued and very wearable. It's lovely! Will be on the lookout for this one! 🙂
It's definitely quite wearable but has a brightness that looks different on many lightings xx
It looks really pretty and natural on you! x
Amazing shade! I hate strong scents too… particularly in lipsticks.
The color looks gorgeous, but I too am not a fan of 90's lipstick smell.

I like the color but it's a bit too bright for me to wear it to work, lol. Looks nice on your though. I would've been ok with the scent if it didn't smell that strong.
This colour is perfect!! such a lovely blog too!! xxx
