When i purchased a few different colours of these online i expected them to be a bit more pigmented, instead upon application most of the shades take a long time to build up and by the time you have a nice colour it's just a little too glossy for my personal preference. They are great for wearing over top of another matte lip colour or stain though if you want a bit of a glossy finish!

These are so patchy on my lips! I know they aren't supposed to be a matte finish or anything but they just highlighted the lines in my lips so much. I also found the gloss finish quite sticky and they didn't last more than 2 hours even without eating.
I purchased one of these on sale in shade #10 'Bare to be Bold'.
The formula is nice and hydrating but I find it goes on patchy. The colour is not very pigmented at all. I did gather this product would only be a sheer colour but this is barely there at all.
I think some of the other shades could be better, looking at swatches I appear to have purchased a particularly sheer one.
If you are looking for a sheer lightly pigmented light weight gloss then this might suit you but it wasn't for me. I actually wound up adding it to my daughters 'play' makeup kit :)
I bought this of NZ SALE thinking that this was matte. (I obviously didn't read it too well because it definitely wasn't). I have the color lilac, and i must admit that i really did end up liking this lipstick even though its not what i thought it was.
The lipstick if very moistening, and i can get very dry, chapped lips so this works very well.
Its a great lipstick if you like a more softer color. The color looks very vibrant when you buy it but as soon as you use it, its far from that. I admit i did buy this because it is hard to get a very vibrant color and this didn't end up being that.
Overall though, this lipstick is great if you are just getting out of the house as it gives your lips a nice, soft color. I would definitely recommend this product.
My boyfriend got me a two pack of these lipsticks the colour I have looked like a dark plummy red or brown when I took off the lid and looked at it the lid was a bright red. I have it on my lips and it feels nice like a balm hydrating my lips. I do not know why they have described it as "pure pigments" as this suggests that its strongly pigmented and a solid colour the fact is its actually very sheer and subtle you can try build the intensity but this is more of a lip tint to be honest. They smell nice though the price above is okay but now that I know they are a tint I would not pay that for them nice feeling on the lips nice packaging but it is not really a lip stick its a lip tint.
Very sheer coverage. Doesn't add much colour, but gives a nice shine. Doesn't really feel very smooth on my lips.
I have the orange shade and t's a super wearable pop of colour. Very moisturising and sheer. LOVE IT
I love super pigmented, bright lipstick. This is not one of those! It's title really is true, you only get a whisper of colour! If that was what I wanted I would've purchased a lipgloss instead. I do not recommend buying this product as it has hardly any colour payoff and feels sticky when applied.
I have a few of these in various different pinky shades and I love them all!
They are a very subtle lipstick but I find the colours do come off as they look and are nice and pigmented!
The formula is nice and creamy and feels silky and moisturising on the lips.
Downfall: It isn't long lasting at all.... but I love these anyway.
Tips: Line your lips first and do a few layers to build up the colour
I have two shades in this range 70 and 95. I really like the packaging of these lipsticks and they r slimmer then a usual lipstick size. When first opening these i thought that they would be pigemented but not really more of a soft colour of pink. They do apply really smoothly and feel very moisturizing to my lips like a lip balm. The lasting power of these are abit of a let down didnt last longer at all. Wouldn't buy these again as for me i like lipsticks to be the exact same colour and pigment as you see on the lipstick itself.
