Milani HD Lip Color has great packaging for a drugstore lipstick. The black container has fancy “M’s” on it, and gold detailing around the cap. A gold “M” adorns the top of the cap, as well, finishing off the lipstick container.
I was expecting Modern Mauve to be much more dark and brown, but I was pleasantly surprised by the gorgeous color! It’s not too pink, and not too brown…it’s exactly in between, and the shade is truly spectacular.
It’s the perfect neutral pink-mauve shade, and the formula is extremely moisturizing. You can see in the swatch above on my hand that it gives off a sheen, and has a lot of hydration to it.
Modern Mauve is there, without being too overbearing or harsh. I love the pink-mauve color it puts down, and how wearable this shade is. Battling chapped lips, this lipstick instantly made my lips feel super smooth and drenched in moisture.
Bottom Line: Modern Mauve puts a fantastic spin on “mauve” by making it a very wearable, pinkish-mauve. The formula is hydrating and moisturizing, and makes your lips feel smooth and healthy.You will get between 4-6 hours of wear from this lipstick.
Milani HD Advanced Lip Color retails for $7.99 in drugstores nationwide, and comes in six cream and six pearl shades. You can browse the shades on the Milani Cosmetics website.

Hello, I really appreciate the review you have for this product. this is one of my favorite lip colors. Unfortunately i don’t think Milani makes this lipstick anymore. Do you have any suggestions for a dope of this product ? preferably a very similar color and feel. I appreciate your help.
