Dea

NABLA Cosmetics Dea Beyond Jelly Lipstick ($25.00 for 0.11 oz.) is a light-medium plum with neutral-to-cool undertones and a soft sheen.

  • Medium to mostly opaque, buildable coverage
  • Lightweight, slightly tacky but with moderate slip
  • Applied evenly and sat well on my lips
  • Moderate longevity (3.5 hours), hydrating

FURTHER READING: Formula Overview for details on general performance and characteristics (like scent).

Formula Overview

$25.00/0.11 oz. - $227.27 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "buildable coverage from sheer to medium" with a "gliding balmy application" that keeps lips soft. It has a stiffer, balm-like feel; and I say stiff without being a negative, just that while there's a lightly emollient, moderately shiny finish that one might associate with a lip balm, it had more substance to it and adhered well to lips without feeling like the product melted instantly on the lips.

The coverage ranged from sheer to semi-sheer and was buildable to medium coverage, as marketed, which was nice to see. Despite the sheerness and the shinier finish, most shades applied evenly without settling into lip lines and were fairly forgiving of lip texture/imperfections. The formula was moderately hydrating, comfortable to wear, and most shades lasted three to four hours on me.

Comments that do not adhere to our comment policy may be removed. Discussion and debate are highly encouraged but we expect community members to participate respectfully. Please keep discussion on-topic, and if you have general feedback, a product review request, an off-topic question, or need technical support, please contact us!

Please help us streamline the comments' section and be more efficient: double-check the post above for more basic information like pricing, availability, and so on to make sure your question wasn't answered already. Comments alerting us to typos or small errors in the post are appreciated (!) but will typically be removed after errors are fixed (unless a response is needed).

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!
