I have these in Westie and Lumiere. Firstly, the scent. It's meant to be vanilla, but it just reminds me of crayons. Cheap crayons. But you don't get that smell once the lipstick is applied.
The lipstick lasts really well. Westie is what I would call a warm baby pink, and Lumiere pulls plum on me. They are creamy for a matte and don't tug at your lips to apply.
The pen size makes them easy to find in a large handbag too. And you cannot argue with the price or the shipping to NZ.
I don't always reach for these lipsticks and I don't know why. I would like to try some more shades however.
LOVE these!! I can't get enough of the lippie stix! Currently I have 5 shades: Frida, Lumière, Freshman, Sweet-Thing and Frenemie. The different shades they offer come in a variety of finishes too. Some are matte, some satin, glossy, hyper glossy, and recently they added a cream finish. Regardless of the finish, the colors are super pigmented and decently long-wearing. And the formula is creamy and non-drying in the matte shades. The packaging is super cute too. They're tall and skinny like a lip gloss might be but still have the twist up like a regular lipstick. The stick is also thinner so it makes applying to your lips super easy. They have such a great variety of shades for every person and are super affordable at just $5. I could go on forever about how much I love these.
