Review: Nyx Liquid Suede Lipstick in Pink Lush

Hello Lippie Lovers! I am reviewing my lipstick that I received in my March 2016 ipsy bag! It is a brand that I really love, Nyx, and it's a product that I have almost purchased a hundred times and I'm excited that I finally got to try it out!!!


The Breakdown:

Price: $7.00
Contains: 0.13 Ounces
Scent: None
Available: Online and at most Drugstores













Part One: Packaging

The packaging is cute, but it can be deceiving. It is not a clear tube where the color shines through, it is a colored tube that "matches" the lipstick color. Mine didn't match 100%, but the lip color was actually more neon and bright than it would seem in the tube. It has that flat paddle applicator that I have said time and time again that I don't care for, but I think it's starting to grown on me... A little. I'll give packaging 4 out of 5.


Part Two: Color

Ok, this is the most neon ass lipstick I have EVER put on my lips... And I think I kind of like it! I was even asked if I was wearing neon lipstick all day! The Nyx website describes it as Hot Pink. I can't say that's a lie because whoa. I don't know how they manage to pack such a pigmented bright neon color that had no streakiness when applied in a $7 tube. I just don't get it! 5 out of 5 for color.


Part Three: Formula

The reason I put this product back and didn't buy it so many times, was that I had heard bad reviews on it in the YouTube community. At the time, they would say, "It transferred" or "It never dried to a complete Matte finish" and I was like, "Oh no, I don't want that". Until I tried the Lip Lingerie, which according to them is perfectly what they wanted and I realized that I may have a different opinion.

I loved this lipstick. It stayed so comfortable on the lips and didn't emphasize my lip lines or bleed, or anything crazy. It stayed very vibrant all day. The picture I will put below was how my lips looks after 9 hours, breakfast, and lunch. For lunch I had a sub sandwich. Yes, mouth on Sandwich. When I went to take it off that night, it actually stained my lips a very pretty color, but as I was beat and ready for bed, I didn't get a picture. I think this lipstick has been bumped up to my second favorite liquid lipstick formula (Sephora will always be my OG) and they have some very pretty colors that I want to get now. Formula gets a 5 out of 5.



Final Verdict:

I don't think I need to say much more. These are affordable, easy to get your hands on, and extremely long wearing and comfortable.They have 12 different shades and I want at least 8 of them now (some are a little to crazy, even for me).

I mean Look at this colors!

12 shades available in the range.

Review: L'Oreal Infallible Pro Last Lipcolor in Permanent Blush

Hello my Lippie Lovers! Today I have an OG Liquid Lipstick from the Drugstore. This liquid lipstick was around back before liquid lipstick was a thing (I know it's so hipster). I picked this up and wanted to give a try. It is the L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Last Lipcolor in #117 Permanent Blush.



The Breakdown:

Price: $12.99
Contains: 0.12 Ounces (Liquid Part)
Scent: None
Available: Online and at most drugstores.











Part One: Packaging

These two step packaging lipsticks are pretty popular in the drugstore world, but I don't much care for them. I almost wish that the balm part could separate so that this long lipstick tube wouldn't take up so much space in my purse. But, then I would probably gripe because I would lose the balm piece and say it should all be together. I guess you can't win with me. 3 out of 5 for packaging.


Part Two: Color

The color I picked up is called Permanent Blush. It is a Pinky Coral with gold glitter. The gold glitter is mostly undetectable on the lips (you can see it quite well in the package) until it starts to fade and a golden sparkle is left behind. While this is a pretty color it seems lighter in person than it is in the tube, and I don't think it's really a shade that looks good on me. Whoever I do give them points because they have 24 different shades in this line, ranging from True nude to deep berries and purples. I'll give them 4 out of 5 for color.


Part Three Formula:

If you are looking for a lipstick that you can put on once in the morning, then work a 10 hour shift and still have color when you come home, this color is for you. The balm end actually feels quite nice, and I noticed it lasting about 2 hours or so. When you first apply the color, it states to wait 2 minutes for it to dry and then apply the balm. If you don't apply the balm this is the stickiest liquid lipstick I've ever had on my lips. But when you put the balm on, all of the stickiness goes away, and stays pretty comfortable for about 6 hours I would say. After that it began to feel dry and i needed to reapply the balm, but the color was still there. Though this is not my favorite formula, I would say it's not horrible. 4 out of 5 for formula.

Final Verdict:

So considering that for a drugstore lipstick, this is $13, I personally would skip this and get a Sephora Lip Cream for only $1 or so more. But if you don't mind a dry liquid lipstick that does really last all day, then you would probably love this one. I doubt I will be purchasing any more of these, though some of their shades are very pretty.

Review: Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor

Hello Lippie Lovers! Today I have a "liquid lipstick" from the drugstore. They are just trying so hard to make this new obsession work aren't they? Either Way, here we go!

Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor in HD Obsession


The Breakdown:

Price: ~8.99
Contains: 0.2 Ounces
Scent: Mango/Vanilla
Available: Online and at most drugstores













Part One: Packaging

The packaging is cute. It is thin and sleek, so it can easily fit in a purse or even a pocket. It has a frosted glass look, and you all know how much I love that! The only thing I personally don't care for is that they have that flat paddle applicator that has become trendy lately, but I don't really care for it. In case you are wondering why, I'll quickly tell you. While this shape hold a lot of product so that you don't have to "re-dip" there isn't a precise line and it makes it a little hard to get crisp edges. Either way, even despite the applicator, I'll give it 5 out of 5, I think it's just so cute.


Part Two: Color

The color I have is a beautiful color. While it is a very bold vibrant pink, it's not quite a vibrant as the ads lead you to believe. You can build up the color and get that color, but with one swipe it's not quite that bold. While Revlon doesn't have any color descriptions on these, I would say it's a vibrant red based hot pink. I could be wrong, but that's what my little pupils see. 4 out of 5 for color.

Lipstick at time of application
Part Three: Formula

Once again, this is where most drugstore liquid lipsticks fail. This one though is horrible. Revlon doesn't make claims that this one is long lasting, just that is a velvety smooth matte lipstick. So I pretty much agree with that, it does have a velvet feel on the lips, and it does mostly dry down to a matte finish (much better than the Maybelline One), but it does transfer and will not last through eating or really even drinking, but it does remain very comfortable, and I didn't have any issues with bleeding on this one. So as just a lipstick, not horrible and it's a good price so that's a plus. For formula though I will give it a 3 out of 5.

Final Verdict:

For a drugstore product it's not horrible, but drugstore brands have really been stepping up their game, so if I was to change anything I would make it a little more matte so that it matches the name a little better, but all in all, average.

Review: Nyx Lingerie Liquid Lipstick in Exotic

Hello again Lippie Lovers, today I have an item that I was so excited to get my hands on when I got the notification that it was coming out. It is the new Liquid Lipstick from Nyx called the Lip Lingerie.


The Breakdown:

Price: $7.00
Contains: 0.13 Ounces
Scent: Slight Chemical Smell
Available: Online, Ulta, and at most drugstores.













Part One: Packaging

Nyx did a great job on the packaging in my opinion, especially for the price range. It's sleek and different than most of their other packaging. But while I like the outside packaging, I don't much care for the applicator. It has that flat paddle look that I just don't care for, but it works. 4 out of 5 for packaging.


Part Two: Color

So this line of lipsticks are called Lingerie because they are nude colors. Now, most companies do nude colors as the color of a girl like me's pasty white skin. I love the fact that they have darker colors that are not only great for my dark skinned gals out there that want a nude color too, but even for girls like me that just don't care for completely nude lips. With that said, most of the colors are warmer toned and it was hard finding a color that would go with my cool complexion, and I'm still not sure I picked one that is great on me, but it's what I got. 4 out of 5 for color.

Color at time of Application
Part Three: Formula

So this one is hard to judge. Does it feel comfortable on the lips? Yes. Does it dry down quickly to a Matte texture? Yes. Is it long lasting? Yes and No. Now if I compare it to most other drugstore "matte" liquid lipsticks, it hit it out of the park. But, If I just judge it completely as it is, I don't 100% care for it. After eating it wore off very patchy and weird, and that was surprising because after I put it on, it had NO transfer. But somehow it just looked odd. I also don't think it really layered well, as it had that gross thick texture that most liquid lipstick have if you try to re-apply. I'll give the formula a 3 out of 5. Not bad, but not my favorite by far.

Not looking so great after eating.
Final Verdict:

If this was just against other drugstore brands, it would probably get a 4 out of 5, but as it wore ugly and I had to completely take it off after eating and reapply, and there are other affordable options out there, I'll give it...

Review: Seraphine Botanicals Liquid Lipstick in Cherry Cream

Hello Lippie Lovers! Today I am reviewing a "lipstick" I received from my February Lip Monthly bag that I reviewed HERE. The reason I have lipstick in quotation marks is that the product actually calls this a lip and cheek tint, but this is straight up a liquid lipstick and I would never dream of putting this stuff on my cheeks. Well, maybe at 3 a.m. after a bottle of wine, but that's an entirely different story. I'll admit I've never heard of this brand, but I'm excited to to review the Seraphine Botanicals Lipstick in Cherry Cream.


The Breakdown:

Price: $18.00
Contains: 0.16 Ounces
Smell: Sweet
Available: Online*

*Use ipsy code "IPSY30" for 30% off through 3/31/16*












Part One: Packaging

I think I'm starting to regret having this as a part to review. It seems like I can't think of anything new to say about the same packaging day in and day out. Either way, this comes in pretty standard liquid lipstick packaging, the only difference being that the container is short and squat rather than long and skinny (hey, it's like me!), and the doe foot applicator is a bit shorter. Other than that, nothing out of the ordinary. 4 out of 5.


Part Two: Color

When this stated that it was a lip and cheek tint, I was not expecting the color to be as bold as what was in the tube, so I was pleasantly surprised when I swatched this and it was a bold true red, just like in the tube. Man, this color is great, but I might be a little biased as I LOVE red lipstick. It is my favorite color to wear. 5 out of 5 for color. But I would rate it higher if I could.



Part Three: Formula

So this is honestly unlike any other lipstick I've ever worn. The formula was thin, but yet buttery at the same time? It dried very quickly, so quickly in fact that I was still applying to the top lip and the bottom lip was already dry, and only needed 1 swipe to cover my entire lips (and I don't have the thinnest lips out there). Once it dried down, it honestly felt like I was wearing nothing on my lips. They didn't feel dry or anything really, and I actually kept forgetting that I was wearing it. The best part though was that the color lasted 12+ hours, through breakfast, lunch, dinner, and drinks and looked just as bold and vibrant when I took it off as when I first put it on that morning. I didn't get a picture of how it looked after that time because it literally looked exactly the same. Hands down, the best formula I've ever tried. It's also nice that it's Vegan and Cruelty Free. Formula gets an astounding 5 out of 5.

Final Verdict:

This is 100% the best liquid lipstick I've ever put on my lips. The only problem is that this is the ONLY one they have. 1 color, how could they do this to me? I want this formula in every color possible and even though the color they offer is awesome, I'm disappointed that they don't have more. Maybe if enough people become excited about it, they might expand the range??? Here's to hoping.

Review: Wet n Wild Megalast Liquid Lip Color in Red My Mind

Hello to my Lippie Lovers out there. Today I have a review for a liquid lipstick from the drugstore! It is the Wet n Wild Megalast Liquid Lip Color in 921A Red My Mind.


The Breakdown:

Price: $2.99
Contains: 0.23 Ounces
Scent: Very Very Faint Chemical
Available: Online and at most Drugstores













Part One: Packaging

I'm actually quite impressed with the packaging seeing as it's only a $2.99 product. The packaging is not much different than most liquid lipsticks, except for maybe that it feels like a cheaper plastic than the more expensive ones, but for the price, who cares?! The applicator itself takes a little getting used to, it's like a fat paddle, or like maybe a squished doe foot? It's hard to explain, but it does pickup quite a bit of product, though it was a little hard to get a clean line. I'll give packaging a 4 out of 5.

Can you tell by the picture that it's near V-Day???
Part Two: Color

Woah. I'm mean damn does this lipstick pack a huge punch of color. You want some bold ass red lips, this is the place to be, One swipe and wow, RED. The color is just a perfect blue based red, but it is not for the faint at heart, this is some serious boldness here. 5 out of 5 for Color.


Part Three: Formula

Here is where i'm torn, and it's the same place that always gives me pause when I try out a new liquid lipstick. There seem to be only two kinds: comfortable and tacky that transfers, or long lasting no transfer super dry. This one is the dry kind. The website claims: "These intense liquid lip colors are completely transfer-proof and last up to 8 hours – while moisturizing!" Okay, so it is intense, and it is transfer proof, and it does easily last 8 hours (if you stay away from oily foods) but it is NOT moisturizing. Not in the least, after a couple of hours you start to get what is known as the dreaded "Butthole" lips. Dry as a desert. Now if you don't mind throwing a gloss over the top of this, or just don't mind wearing drying lipstick, it would be fine, but this stuff is super dry. But, that depends on what you are looking for. You can kiss and drink and everything and this stuff isn't going anywhere! Also, it's worth noting that it dries VERY quickly so you have to work fast, and it doesn't really layer very well either. I'm going to give the formula a 3 out of 5 as I prefer a more comfortable to wear liquid lipstick, but when I need some long lasting color that packs a punch, I do pull this one out.




Final Verdict:

So this is not bar far a BAD lipstick, it's just not necessarily my favorite, but for a true liquid lipstick from the drugstore, and for only $2.99? Worth it! Also that punch of color it gives makes up for any dryness it causes.

Review: Gerard Cosmetics Hydra Matte Liquid Lipstick in Serenity

Hello again Lippie Lovers! Today I have a new liquid lipstick to review for you. This time is the brand Gerard Cosmetics in their Hydra Matte Liquid Lipstick line and the color I have is called Serenity. I purchased Serenity because a YouTube beauty vlogger, Manny MUA did a collaboration with them, and I was trying to get more into nude shades when I purchased it. Either way, here we go with another exciting adventure in Lipstick!




The Breakdown:


Price: $20
Contains: 0.059 Ounces
Smell: Slightly Vanilla/Chemical Smell
Available: Online














Part One: Packaging


The packaging is very simple on this lipstick, but in a way I kind of like it. I think that even though the tube actually has nothing written on it anywhere, the fact that it's frosted pushes it up a bit for me. (I just love the frosted glass look). I also like the golden cap as well, though the packaging does look to be inexpensive to me. However, I'll give it a 4 out of 5.







Part Two: Color


The color is described as "a beautiful warm pink, with hints of brown" and I see it as a warm toned pink, but I don't think it has very much brown in it as most lipsticks with any brown at all, pull like a 90's grunge on me. Either way, the color being very slight on the brown is a good thing to me as I am cool-toned. The color does pull much more pink on my warm-toned friends. However that being said, I think that it is still a beautiful color even though it looks more peach on me in pictures, but in real life it looks more pink. 4 out of 5 for color.






At time of application


Part Three: Formula

The formula on this one is good or bad depending on what you are looking for. So it goes onto the lips as a mix between a think liquid and a mousse, so like a thin mousse I guess. It dries down to a very comfortable matte finish. Now with comfort there is a downside, it stays tacky. Even after completely drying, there is a slight tackiness that stays around all day, but this is why they are called Hydra Matte. They are not drying in the least, never will you feel like you need to put on a balm with this lipstick. It also does transfer and need to be reapplied after eating. So if I was looking for a dry liquid lipstick with no transfer that lasted forever and ever, I probably would not pick this one up. However, if you don't mind any of that and want something that is just going to be comfortable on the lips, then this one might be for you. I enjoy a comfortable lip, so I will give the formula a 4 out of 5.



Final Verdict:


I guess it's no surprise what rating this one is going to receive. However there is some controversy attached to Gerard Cosmetics, but I won't get into that here, as I am just here to review the product with no outside factors persuade my opinion of a product. However, if you want to know more about the controversy to decide on your own if you want to purchase this product, you can check out a video from my favorite YouTuber for Liquid Lipstick reviews.

Review: Ofra Liquid Lipstick in Mina

Hello Lippie Lovers! Today I have a very hyped Liquid Lipstick on YouTube, and I am excited to try it out for all of you! This is the Ofra Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick in the color Mina.


The Breakdown:

Price: $19.90
Contains: 0.2 ounces
Smell: Slight Vanilla Scent
Available: Online*













Part One: Packaging

So the packaging is pretty boring, but it's also not the worst I've seen from a liquid lipstick. Do I think that for the price tag it should be a little more snazzy than a sticker on a plain tube? Yes, but as they are an indie brand I will give them a pass. 3 out of 5 for packaging.


Part Two: Color

So Ofra's website doesn't have a description of this color, and the only way I can think of to describe it is like a deep berry/wine color. It seems that when I look up swatches of it online it looks slightly different on everyone, depending on their skin tone. Either way it is a very fall vampy color, and I love the color on this one. 5 out of 5 on color.

Lipstick at time of application, after drying down to matte.

Part Three: Formula

Okay, so Ofra is highly pimped out on YouTube, and I have wanted to try it for a while, but was slowly starting to collect my liquid lipsticks (these hoes are expensive!) and was excited when I signed up for a subscription service (like ipsy) called Lip Monthly and this lipstick was in my very first bag! However, even though I didn't pay full price for this product does not mean that I'm not going to be completely honest.

Okay so that part that throws me off is that right there in the title these state that they are Long Lasting. While they do last longer than a traditional creme finish lipstick, they do not last as long as most liquid lipsticks I have tried. They do wear in patches, instead of a gradual fade. Also, these do not last very well through eating. I ate chicken and broccoli with rice for dinner off of a fork, not much actually touching my lips and it looked pretty bad afterward. Good news though, these did layer well when applying a second layer.

Upon initial application, they do dry in about a minute or two, which is average and they feel comfortable on the lips all day without that tacky feeling you get from most comfortable liquid lipsticks. It was even comfortable after applying more on top after eating lunch. Also these do transfer quite a bit, as you can see below I got the dreaded lipstick line on the chin after eating dinner. I'll give the formula a 3 out 5.

Lippies after 9 hours of wear, 1 re-application after lunch and eating dinner.


Final Verdict:

Overall these are not a bad liquid lipstick, but they are not the best on the market by far. I don't think I would purchase anymore of these unless they had a unique color that I loved, then I would't hesitate. So all in all, just Meh.

3 out of 5 Lippies.

*These are also listed on Amazon but they sell at $29.95 and up. Please do not buy these from Amazon for that price when they are available for $19.90 through Ofra.*

Review: Dose of Colors Liquid Lipstick in Stone

Hello again Lippie Lovers!

Today I am going to review another color of a formula that I have already reviewed. If you want to see my review for this Lipstick in Berry Me, Click Here.

This time I am going to review the Color Stone...



The Breakdown:

Cost: $18
Contains: 0.3 Ounces
Scent: Light Vanilla Scent
available: Online












This review is going to be a little different. As I have already reviewed this Brand for the packaging and Formula, I'm not going to re-hash all of that. In a nutshell, when it comes to those two things, aces in my book. I obviously love the formula and packaging if I re-purchased in a new color, and plan on re-purchasing in even more colors soon. You can read my original review for more details on that.

Part One: Color

Instead I will talk about this specific color. I was apprehensive when I first bought this color. This is unlike any other color I've ever worn and I was afraid it would look horribly against my skin tone. So the first two times I wore this color every time I looked into a mirror it just looked straight up gray to me. I think it's because I was just not used to looking at this type of color on me. The website actually describes it as Mauve with a gray undertone, and I agree with that, but I have come to love this color and wear it quite often. The only thing I've notice for the negative column is that as this is a lighter shade is does tend to accentuate the lines of your lips, but that is something you can expect from any liquid to matte lighter shade lipstick, so I won't deduct anything for that. 5 out of 5 for color.

Lipstick at time of application, after completely set down to matte.

Final Verdict:

I simply love this lipstick formula already, and this color is a great everyday shade that is good for people who either work somewhere that they cannot wear bright or dark shades, or who are maybe a little afraid of more vivid colors. Also note, that while my cool-toned skin pulls the gray out of this lipstick, it is much more pink toned on my warm-toned friends. This color would look great on EVERYBODY!!! That's why it's awesome in book.

Review: Sephora Collection Cream Lip Stain in Blackberry Sorbet

Hello again Lippie Lovers!! Today I have for you a review of the Sephora Collection Cream Lip Stain in 14 Blackberry Sorbet.


The Breakdown:

Price: $14.00
Contains: 0.169 ounces
Scent: a very faint vanilla
Available: Online or at Sephora Stores.













Part One: Packaging

I have to say the packaging disappoints me. I understand that this is considered a "Generic Brand" since it comes directly from Sephora, but it's still Sephora, not the dollar store. The tube is completely blank except for the name of the product in plain black writing on the side. The applicator is a standard doe foot with Sephora written around it. This looks like the packaging you would expect on a product that costs maybe $5, not the $14 you have to pay. Packaging gets a 2 out of 5.


Part Two: Color

I love this color. Simple as that, I love this color so much. Now this is what I would call a buildable color. One swipe is really all you need for a bright berry shade, but if you put on a second coat, you get a color that I would agree looks like a blackberry sorbet. I usually always wear this shade with two coats, and when I do, I always get compliments on it. 4 out of 5 for color, as the 1st coat can go on a bit streaky.

Color with 1 coat
Color after about 6 hours and breakfast and lunch eaten.
Color with a second coat added.
Part Three: Formula

So this is where the $14 comes into play. This liquid lipstick is definitely worth that $14 price tag. The formula goes on very liquid and dries down to a completely matte shade that is not only beautiful and opaque, but feels comfortable like there is nothing on your lips, and boy does it last all day. I felt the need to apply a fresh coat after about 6 hours, but as I look at the pictures of my lips at that time, I could have easily goes a few more hours. Formula gets a 5 out of 5.

Final Verdict:

I have nothing more to say about this lipstick, besides that I LOVE it. But, due to it being streaky and cheap packaging, I will give it...

Review: The Balm Meet Matt(e) Hughes Liquid Lipstick in Committed

Hello again Lippie Lovers! I am excited for today's review! It is...

The Balm Cosmetics Meet Matt(e) Hughes Liquid Lipstick in Committed.

The breakdown:

Cost: $17
Contains: 0.219 Ounces
Scent: Chocolate Mint
Available: Online














Part One: Packaging

I don't have much to say about the packaging. It's cute, but the cuteness is I think to distract from the simpleness of the tube. The lipstick is basically in a clear plastic tube with a black top that has a basic doe foot applicator. Then they just stick a sticker on it. The sticker is cute, it has a couple drinking a milkshake together. The Balm has cute name and cool 50's vibe on all their makeup, but like I said, it's simple. For $17 they could have maybe used a glass container or something, but since it pretty much does the job I'll let it slide this time. I'll give packaging a 3 out of 5.


Part Two: Color

9 times out of 10 when you see me I will be wearing a bold bright lipstick. I don't usually reach for the nude lipsticks and in fact when I got this lipstick I think I maybe owned 1 nude. I received this sample size in an Ipsy bag and I was excited to try it, despite the nude like color because I had at this point become obsessed with Liquid Lipsticks. I actually love this color, and on days that I am just shopping, or hanging out in casual clothes I will pull this one out and slap it on. The color is a pinky nude, and I'm glad I got it as it broadened my nude lipstick horizon. The color is so pretty and on my cool toned skin looks like a "My Lips But Better" color. 5 out of 5 for color.

Lipstick at time of Application

Part Three: Formula

The formula on this liquid lipstick is unlike any other that I have tried. It's not thick and creamy like some liquid lipsticks, but it's not as thin a formula as other I have tried as well. It's like a nice in between formula. It dries down to a matte finish fairly quickly, and once it's dry you tend to forget you even have it on. It is probably in the top 3 most comfortable liquid lipsticks to wear. I did have some slight fading near the corners of my mouth because I was eating a sandwich, but I was able to reapply some product there and it didn't feel cakey and gross, which I highly appreciated. There is a slight transfer on this lipstick, but very very slight, and it last well over 8 hours. I will give the formula a 5 out of 5.

Slight Fading after eating Dinner 9 hours after application.

Final Verdict:

I plan to purchase more of these. The only downside is that they only have 8 shades. I wish they had this formula in 100 shades.

Review: Dose of Colors Liquid Lipstick in Berry Me

Hello again Fellow Lippie Lovers!

Today I am reviewing the brand Dose of Colors Liquid Lipstick in Berry Me.




The item breakdown:

Cost: $18
Contains: 0.3 ounces
Scent: Light Vanilla Scent
available online at: Dose of Colors












The Review:

Part One: Packaging

I love the packaging for this liquid lipstick. Instead of a cheap plastic tube that some liquid lipsticks come in (even ones more expensive than these) they come in a frosted glass tube, which I personally think is just beautiful. They have their Dose of Colors logo on it, which is very modern. The applicator is like a standard doe foot, but the tip goes up into a point, which makes application easier. 5 out of 5 for packaging.






































Part Two: Color

The color is pretty spot on. The shade manages to be berry, without going into the too purple stage. The color goes on smooth with no streaks, and once it does start to fade, leaves a nice stain behind.
There is not much to say about the color, 5 out of 5.





















Part Three: Formula

Dose of Colors is one of my top 3 favorite liquid lipstick formulas. Once you get it on your lips, it dries down pretty quickly and feels so comfortable on the lips that I often forget that I am wearing it. If I don't eat anything too greasy, and make sure to exfoliate my lips before hand, I don't usually find a need to re-apply this lipstick. Even after my long 10 hour days. You do get quite a bit of product for a liquid lipstick, and while the price of $18 seems a little steep, it is right on par with most liquid lipsticks. Formula gets a 5 out of 5.

Final Verdict:

Is it any surprise after reading this that my final verdict will be a good one? I simply love this liquid lipstick, and while it is not my top dog (so far) I do find myself regularly reaching for this shade in particular.

5 out 5 Lippies.
