Pigmentation on point but overall not the best

I have a love/hate relationship with these glosses which I've been using for a year and I regret buying the collection. I made sure to read several reviews on beauty blogs and Youtube before buying so was surprised when I wasn't that impressed.

The packaging is bulky but the clear tube allows you to see the colours which is true to colour. The pigmentation is amazingly vibrant to the point that they're a bit too over the top to wear to the office for me (except maybe 2). I was hoping to soften the vibrancy by picking up minimal product and lightly layering it but then you look like you haven't finished your lips.

The texture is buttery and light weight, I love how they feel on my lips however they can be drying. I find that these are not glosses you can just walk out the door with a plain face because it'll look like you forgot the rest of your makeup.

I find it's too much work to apply this product so that it doesn't bleed or move. Lipliners can only contain this product for so long so I find I have to check the mirror more often when I'm wearing this so I don't look like I've taken lessons from the Joker.

If I'm lucky I can get 2.5 hours without having to reapply/fix (without eating/drinking). But I guess that's typical of a gloss. I bought mine directly off of their website without any shipping issues.

Below are the shades and what they look like on me. I recommend these glosses to those who love vibrant colours and aren't about that natural lip.

Reds 1.Burning Love* - Vibrant red

Purples 2.Toxic* - Vampy purple 3.Purple Fusion - Blue based violet Pinks 4. Wild Child* - Fuschia 5. Attitude - Barbie pink (almost neon) 6. Cotton Candy - Bubble gum pink 7. Petals - White based pink

Other 8. Undressed* - Nude beige 9. Sunshine Kisses - Warm apricot (reminds me of Lime Crime's Cosmo Pop)

*My favourites

Tips: Use a lip liner and light lip balm before applying the gloss to help keep the gloss from moving and to hydrate the lips.

Hiya Gnah06, DoC is currently not available in NZ you can order direct from their website. By lipstain, do you mean the matte liquid lipsticks? If so, then yes :-) If I had to pick top 3 brands then they would get first place, hope that helps.

Great review sweet, I have seen these online and pondered over them a few times. Might save my pennies for a bit longer now. Thanks for being very thorough.
