Great color, but not great.

I picked this up on special as I'd been after a matte dusky pink nude lip color for a while. I really like this color, it's versatile, I think that it's a color that would suit everyone, but sadly I'm not a fan of this gloss.

The packaging is ideal, sturdy tube, it's clear so you can see the product, and comes with a doe foot applicator. It's the consistency that I don't like about this stuff..

It applies patchy, although you can fix that up with a good few coats, and it's tacky on the lips. The stickiness of my lips when wearing the gloss, reminds me of those PVA glue sticks. This can be improved by applying a bit of lip balm on top, but then it's not exactly matte..

I don't find it too drying as mattes can be, and it lasts.

Overall I'm disappointed with this product. I'll still use it as I like the color and don't like to waste, but definitely wouldn't repurchase or recommend.

Affordable Liquid Lipstick

I have both Dreamy and Fleur matte pigment gloss and let me first say that the word gloss is misleading as it is simply a liquid lipstick - nothing about it is glossy!

It comes in a thick, sturdy tube package with a flat doe foot applicator, which is great for a cheaper product. Dreamy is a beautiful pinky nude and it does apply darker on the lips than it appears in the tube so be sure to check swatches online.

I would suggest to use a lip liner as it can be tricky to apply with the flat applicator (takes getting used to). The liquid lipstick takes a while to dry down and once it is dry, it remains tacky throughout the day. It does feel very drying on the lips but the lip liner does definitely help with that. Once I have eaten or drank, it wears off on my inner lip and leaves a crusty worn area. It does need to be reapplied to that area and definitely doesn't look perfect afterwards.

At the end of the day, the product is quite hard to take off my lips so its long-lasting claims are true (apart from the inner lip problem already mentioned). Due to its long-wearing nature, it would be perfect to wear out to a party or somewhere for a few hours where there is not too much eating involved.

DUPE? This colour is similar to the Gerard Cosmetics Hydra Matte Liquid Lipstick in Serenity but slightly lighter. It is a good colour alternative but the formula of the Gerard Cosmetics Lipstick is much better if you can afford to pay the price.

Overall, I do like it as an affordable liquid lipstick but you get what you pay for. If you don't mind having dry but tacky lips or re-applying throughout the day then it's a good cheap option. I love the colour and will probably re-purchase because of that - I just wear it for a few hours at a party or down the street.

Tips: 1. Use a lipbalm beforehand and use a lip liner as a base all over the lips 2. Take it in your handbag for re-application after eating
