Mirabella Lipstick in Daydream Review

I received this lipstick in my May Ipsy bag and I have been loving it! If you don't know what Ipys is I will link it at the bottom of this post.
As you can see the Mirabella lipsticks packaging is very sleek and very well made.
Trying to get the true color of this lipstick was a pain. Finally after a few minutes I got it at a perfect angle and caught almost the true color of this lipstick. Daydream is a really pretty dusty rose color with blue shimmers. It's not as purple toned as shown in the photo but more of a baby doll pink.
This lipstick is very glossy and as stated on the lipstick it is sheer. However, it is buildable. As you can see on the above photo that the top swatch is rather sheer. The top swatch was just two swipes of the lipstick. On the bottom as you can see it is more opaque and shows the true color of the lipstick. No matter how many times I took the photo the sparkles just would not get picked up on the camera but there are blue shimmers that do transfer from the lipstick to your lips.

I like that this lipstick doesn't feel gritty like most lipsticks that have shimmers in them. Which is a plus. The color and the sheerness and the buidability  is another pro to these lipsticks and I will probably be repurchasing this color along with other colors from this line.

The infamous pink bubble mailer!
The theme for this months bag was Spring Fling. Along with the card telling all the brands for this moth I also received a NuMe gift certificate voucher thing.

THE REVEAL!!!!
Item number one in my bag was the Pacifica Island Vanilla Perfume Roll-On. The bottle is .33 fl oz/ 10 ml and smells amazing. This smell reminds me of Vanilla Bean Noel by Bath and Body works that comes out every year during Christmas.
The second item is the NuMe Finishing Serum. It comes in a blue bottle with a stopper lid. The stopper feels cheaply made so I hope it doesn't break on me. I have not used this item but I think I will enjoy this once I finish using my Big And Sexy hair care item I received in last months bag. It does have a smell but not enough to bother me so I don't really mind it.
Next up is the Yaby concealer in pecan. Honestly I'm not sure how I feel about this but I will definitely be trying it out and tell you my thoughts on it.
Fourth item is this Mirabella lipstick in the color Daydream. The color is a nude, dusty rose color with silver micro shimmers. I'm not a big fan of lipsticks with shimmer but I am open to trying out new things.
Lastly is the Zoya nail polish that everyone has been anticipating. The color I received is called Julie. It is a gorgeous soft lilac purple with blue/silver micro shimmers. A great summer color which I will definitely be wearing.
