I was lucky enough to receive this from a friend who wasn't a big fan of the shade - Doll Parts. The shade is like a dark rose sort of shade which I love. I had been interested in these for some time so was really excited to try it.
The packaging is really quite awesome. Clear acrylic so you can see the shade through it. White lid with stars on (my fav) in rose gold. Really different from any other brands packaging which I think is fab.
This is quite matte so I make sure my lips are well prepared beforehand although I didn't find this overly drying. The applicator is great so it makes it easy to apply. I find it drys down quite quickly and that is when it just sticks around. I did find I needed to touch up the middle after lunch but that is no big deal. I love lip products that stick around. I do find it stains my lips a bit but I like that.
I love this and would recommend to anyone, especially as you can get it in such a range of colours, there is something for everyone.
The day I discovered Jeffree Star liquid lipsticks on Instagram I knew I needed to have them in my life. First of all they are cruelty free and they are just plum gorgeous! All of the colours available are simply stunning and call to my inner rebel. They have colours that not many other brands would even contemplate.
The first time my JS cherry was popped was by my very good friend Shazatron for our gift exchange at xmas 2015. Imagine my pure delight and slight tear filled eyes at opening these babies! I was gifted two colours; Weirdo which is a black and is my best friend. The other is I'm Royalty which is a dark purple and is amazing. The packaging is uer cute and calls to my girly side. They have stars and are PINK! The tube itself is clear to show me exactly the colour I am getting.
The formula is quite thick for a liquid lipstick. I love how easy it is to apply and gives a nice clean line with the wand applicator. If I make a mistake however I need to wipe it off fast because it dries super fast. When it dries it is matte which is my choice of lispstick finish most days so it's perfect for me.
It is quite creamy and not drying for my lips. I use a lip balm underneath to make sure that my lips remain nourished and moisturised. The lasting is amazing. I can eat and drink all day long and it still sits in place with the exception of a bit of fading at the opening of my mouth and lips. I am so impressed with everything about it hence the five star rating. I am a JS believer and will amass all of the colours!! So affordable and so gorgeous who wouldn't want them!
