House of Uni was started by a husband and wife team who have been in the fashion and beauty industry for over 13 years. When I was first introduced to the brand they were still going under the name Calypso Cosmetics but since then they have made a lot of changes including the name. They are branching out from just cosmetics to clothing and swim wear.
Now that I have given you a little bit of information on the company I want to tell you a little bit more about their product. Calypso Cosmetics brands motto is Live Out Loud, which is all about being different, daring being your own kind of beautiful. Currently they have 37 lipsticks with matte, semi matte, lustre, satin and creme finishes. The colors run from yellows, pinks, blues, dark sexy burgundy hues, purples and different sades of green. Right now House of Uni is actually working on liquid lipsticks!

The first lipstick in my collection is Rum Punch a beautiful blue hue with a matte finish. I wore this color out on a girls night and have been able to get 7 hours of wear without having to reapply it. Since receiving it I have worn it a few times & always get complements on it. Rum Punch does give opaque coverage with about 2 swipes but if you want a deep blue like pictured I would use 3 swipes.
This is what House of Uni has to say about their lipstick Rum Punch:
\ˈrəm pənch\ (n): a delicious mixture of Jamaican Overproof White Rum, Malibu Coconut Rum, Cruzan Dark Rum, Orange Juice, Pineapple Juice, Lime Juice and Blue Curacao.
A little Rum Punch will have you feeling nice throughout the day or night but be careful not to overdose or you'll end up with a hangover.

Soka Junkie is the next shade on my list, this color is a beautiful lavender with a matte/lustre finish. This lipstick has some slip to it so I only last through about 5 hours of wear before you need to reapply. Soka Junkie was opaque with one swipe and does not feel heavy on the lips. I can see myself wearing this color more in the spring/summertime for work or a night out.
This is what House of Uni has to say about Soka Junkie:
\ˈsō-kə, -kä jəŋ-kē\ (n): a person who loves soca music.
This is the "Soul of Calypso." Soka Junkie is for the musically inclined that loves music and let's the rhythymic beats take over their body. It's fun, it's bold and it's tempted to touch. There's something about a purple lipstick that grabs attention. It's never too much but it always has you coming back for more, just like soca music.

My final lipstick of the day Bad Gal, a beautiful blue based read with a semi-matte finish that lasts for hours. This lipstick is beautiful! Are you looking for a head turner for date night? This lipstick screams sexy! Bad gal is just that a red that will get your girls attention or your date wanting to kiss you.
This is what House of Uni has to say about Bad Gal:
\ˈbad-gyal\ (n): opposite of a "good girl"; a female that does things that is deemed unacceptable by society.
This red lipstick is for the highly promiscuous. Bad Gal is for the female that makes a name for herself without conforming to what society sees as "right" for women. Need a few pointers? Just ask Rihanna.
Well Kinks this was my first of two reviews of House of Uni lipsticks. Have you tried any of their lipsticks yet? They are beautiful and completely affordable at 9 to 10 a piece. Also they have bundle packs 3 for $20 and they have packs 5 for 5 $35. They also are pre-selling their liquid lipsticks $11.98 or you can get the 4 for $40 as a bundle.
