Great packaging, first of all. I love the slightly grippy black base, and the lid clicks on firmly and copes fine with being bashed about in my bag all day.
The lippie itself is brilliant too. It's definitely a semi-matte finish, but more creamy than I'd expected, so very smooth to apply and comfortable to wear. It does have some moisturising in it, but I wear a balm either under or on top of it anyway, as I have very dry lips, The colour is highly pigmented (the 'Nightcap' is gorgeous) and long-wearing - a good few hours, I'd say. And (really importantly for me, particularly with lipsticks) the ingredients get a 100% safety rating on skinsafe.
This lipstick is super affordable and, in my opinion, really punches above its weight, equalling or even outperforming some of the high-end lipsticks I've tried over the years. I'm a fan.
I love this lippy. The color is so pretty and it is easy to apply. It stays on lips long and keeps them soft and hydrated. The packaging is stylish and pretty.
