in love with matte

I LOVE these matte lipsticks! The colour range is incredible, I now own 3 of this range and all suit my skin and eyes. The buttery shea texture is nourishing and soft so no need for a balm underneath. The colour lasts for hours and I only need to reapply after eating a meal and its' pigmentation is amazing. The colours are so bold and dense, and people always comment on my lippy when I wear it out. I feel the pepperminty scent it has naturally plumps my lips which is always a bonus. It has cute and handy packaging that fits nicely in the handbag or evening purse, and I like that they are the the same colour on the packaging as the colour of the lippy so there's no mixing them up when you're in a rush. They are reasonably priced, average about $22 which I think is fine to pay for a product that really works and looks gorgeous and finished. The ONLY downside to this lippy is that it starts off pointed, which is perfect to give that defined cupids bow, and as it wears down it becomes rounded like a normal lippy so is harder to complete the bow.

Super moisturising!

First off - I love these!

I got three of these from Farmers - two of them in the matte and one of the lacquers. They were Buy 2 get the 3rd free which I felt was a great deal. The matte shades I purchased were 210 - Unapologetic and 220 - Showy.

I find these are very moisturising on my lips. Others have said the balms dry out their lips but it is the opposite for me. I like the texture of them and they smell minty which I also love. The mint also feels like it gives you a little bit of plump to your lips as well as often after doing my first application my lips tingle a wee bit.

They are so easy to apply, they dry fairly quickly and the formula is buttery and when you rub your lips together it feels good to me. They are very opaque, you don't need to do more than 1-2 swipes. The balms last a while on your lips, I usually will go to work and only have to reapply after eating lunch, they last while I drink a cup of tea or coffee.

The colours are gorgeous, I will repurchase and have more shades on my wishlist already!

Tips: Exfoliate your lips with the Lush Lip Scrub before hand to get rid of loose skin as this shows up being matte.

product of the moment

It has to be said straight up I like a matte lip. These are great. The colours are great with good pigmentation. I like the formula. The product applies smoothly and wears well. This will last through a coffee without having to re-apply. You get a Matte finish that isn't chalky or dry. This doesn't make your lips dry and flaky. These are awesome to throw into your handbag. Personally I quite like the mint scent but it may not be for everyone.

Tips: Like any lip product making sure you are exfoliated and moisturised before you apply is always a good idea.

Not what i thought

I tried this product out simply because a friend was wearing it and it looked great on her. It seemed to dry my lips out alot and made them peel :( Even tho this product wasn't for me it comes in fab colours!

The application process i found was difficult, because i naturally have very dry lips, i found it didn't just glide on, it actually highlighted the cracks in my lips. In saying this not alot of the product is required to cover your lips.

It comes in a great pencil-like package with a secure slide on lid, which i think is handy for carrying in your handbag.

Personally i wouldn't buy this product again, simply because it dried my lips out more.

Tips: Maybe try putting lip balm on a few minutes before applying ??

Must Have

I have two 215 shameless desinvolte(purple) and 225 sultry sulfureuse(rosy-mauve). These would have to be my go to lip products, I purchased them when unichem pharmacy had a two for $30 sale. I've had them for about four months and I am absolutely going to repurchase when they run out. Such a creamy formula and the staying power is amazing, I would put it on about 7:30 in the morning and not need to reapply till about 2:30 in the afternoon. There also seems to be a great range of colours available. Definitely something you need to purchase for yourself.

Tips: Exfoliate lips before use.

A great lip product!

I really like the matte balm crayon I have in shade 220 Showy Flamboyante. The colour is a beautiful light and bright pink. The durability of wear of this product is pretty good. Because it is a matte balm the wear is great and I am not reapplying it as much as glossy finish alternatives. I love the texture and consistency of this crayon. It glides on amazingly easily and feels nice on but I find by the end of the day my lips are a bit dry but I find this will all of my matte lip products this one is not the most drying though. These are amazingly good for the reasonable price and have such a good colour range available I really recommend these.

Love

I love this product. I haven't always been comfortable applying and wearing lipstick and this is a great alternative. This is long wearing and affordable. There's so many colours. I now own three and will continue to buy this product.

Revlon balm

A friend of mine gave me a pink one of these because she already has one. Oh my life, these are amazing! The smell is a fresh mint smell, the colour itself is so pigmented. Once the lipstick has worn off there's a slight tint left on your lips, its great. The lipstick isn't drying, it lastes a good few hours on your lips. I probably will buy more of these, they have a good colour selection too. The lipstick is a bit pricey, but for under $30 its great!

Best matte lip colours!

I have this in the shade unapoligetic and I am in love. I have been looking for the perfect red/fuchsia/pink lip colour that's matte and this is perfect. They last all day and are really creamy. I didn't expect it to go on so smooth as it's matte but i was pleasantly surprised. The packaging is cute and easy to use as you never need to sharpen it. There are only a few things I don't like about it: once you've used it for a while it tends it go flat at the top which makes it hard to get a crisp line. And the smell, I really don't like peppermint, but the smell doesn't last that long (thank god)
