I tested the -110 Dare to Pink- shade of this product for the 16 hours as claimed, and the results were not quite what i had anticipated. After only a few hours my lips felt very dry but the gloss was still shinny and vibrant. After a few more hours my lips felt very rough, hard and heavy. I tested the lipstick against food and drink and all normal day-to-day activities, including the kiss test xo.
My Lips After 10 Hours

This brand did not transfer when kissing, drinking, slurping or eating all day, as promised. Although it fell short on almost every other 'claim'. The removal process was easy with a tissue and water.

  1. 16 Hour lasting
  2. Easy removal
  3. Kiss proof
  4. Transfer proof
  5. No tight feeling
  6. No dry lips
The Transfer Test
For the fact that brand claimed to do so many things and failed on half of them, i rate this product only 2 shopping bags out of 5. It was a great colour and i personally liked all colour shade choices.  It was evident that it lasted all day, although it needed more applications throughtout the day to surpass the tests of what it claimed to be.

  1. I had the same problem with this product. They have nice shades but there is no way in hell they could last 16 hours!

  2. Definitely wrong on the "no tight feeling". I agree with Diana, they have really nice shades. But honestly, for 8 bucks I'd rather buy some Baby Lips lip balm and never go wrong.

  3. I doubt it could really last 16 hours, but I do like the unique names they have for each colour!

  4. I think you need to test the lipsticks on Valentine's Day.

  5. I love makeup reviewing blogs and I love spending all of my money on drug store makeup. Cute post Bri!

  6. I have a love-hate relationship with lipstick. I've never had a lipstick that lasted all day, even with stains they dry out and although the colour stays, i'm constantly reapplying. My favorite lipsticks are the Revlon Lip Butters! They wear like a lip balm and come in gorgeous colours. Only thing is, like a normal lipstick, they transfer onto everything!
