Review: the best matte lipstick - matte lipstick that stays in your lips for a while and color is perfect.
Review: Tired of reapplying lipstick all day? Get stained! - The picture for this product is better than what was when I bought it, and honestly, had I been able to see that, I'd have chosen another color. The red of this stain is RED--REALLY, REALLY RED. This is great if true reds work with your skin tone,but for mine, I'm far too golden-y/pale to carry that off and still look good. I mute it a bit with a light brown eyeshadow that I no longer use, and the color that results is perfect for me. Since this is a stain, you'd better mean where you put it, because it's not coming off without a fight. Yes, it will fade slightly as the day goes on, but even after 10 hours, there is still a very noticeable trace of the color on my lips. The product smells wonderful, like vanilla mint, and it applies very easily. I strongly suggest NOT using the wand because there's a higher possibility you'll go outside your natural lip line accidentally, thereby making you look like you downed a gallon of red Kool-Aid before leaving the house. Trust me, this is a thing that happened. It's a bit pricey, but you're getting a stain that's very rich in texture and in pigment, which means you won't spend the day putting it on over and over. It does hold up well against cheesburgers, beers, tacos, salsa and chips, and moderate make-out sessions.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I may become a LOYAL customer after this!
*by A***D on March 30, 2016*

While the color i purchased, Loyal, was just a hint darker than I had initially expected, I am pleased overall with the wear and color of the lipstick. As it is a matte formula it does last for a long time (as of the wear today it had about 7.5 hours until it needed reapplication. It fades through eating and drinking (but not as fast as a cream or satin lipstick) and layers over itself very well for when you do need to reapply it. That being said it is not completely matte (and thus not totally transfer proof), and has a light stick when you press your lips together. It doesn't stick to dry patches badly and also does not dry out your lips. As for the amount that you receive it is about 0.25 oz, which is slightly more than the popular KVD Liquid Lipsticks and much more than Lime Crime Velvetines. As for the wand's tip is slightly stiff and scratchy (not bad, but I prefer a softer none like KVD's). As for scent it smells just like a peppermint patty :)
