I have had these for a
while now and have only just got around to reviewing them. I decided to buy
them to try them out and I can’t remember why I bought so many. I must have had
a mad moment and it’s a good job they are not expensive!
The packaging for these is
very simple and you have to twist the tube for the product to dispense out of
the flat brush applicator. The tube is also quite thin and not very big, which
means it is very travel friendly. You get 1.5g of liquid lipstick in each tube
and the formula is slightly sticky like a lipgloss, but it is also smooth like
a lipstick. They also smell and taste of mint.
There are eleven shades in
total and I purchased six of them. I have Baby Lips, which is a
really light champagne pink that is almost clear and has small glitters in
it. Pink Lemonade, which is a rosy pink with sparkle. Strawberry,
which is a bright juicy red. Cherry Tart, which is a bright cherry
red. Ruby Slipper, which is a bright cherry pink with sparkles
and Brownie Points, which is a really light nude brown that is
almost clear with a little sparkle.
On the e.l.f website the
product description is, “Lip therapy is here. Intensive hydrating agents along
with natural pigments leave lips with Long-lasting colour and moisture. This
luscious liquid lipstick creates wearable colour that flatters a multitude of
skin tones and looks.”
I do like the packaging
because it is simple and it helps keep the cost down and you can clearly see
the colour, I just wish the cap was opaque so that you can’t see how filthy the
applicator gets. The formula is also not very sticky, but sticky enough so that
the product will last and stay on your lips up to two hours without eating and
drinking. If you do however decide to consume food and drink, the product starts
wearing away instantly and it won’t take long for every last trace of the
product to disappear. I wouldn’t say that this product is very hydrating or
moisturising, but because the texture is wet it will offer some sort of
moisture to your lips. I am not very keen of the scent or taste
because after you have had they for a while, they start to smell like mouldy mint!
I just apply the tiniest amount on my lips and blend it in so that there is
just a tint of colour because I do not like my lips being sticky, which is the
reason why I don’t like and never wear lipgloss!
The shades are very
wearable and there is a colour for everyone but, Baby Lips and Brownie
Points look very shear on my lips and the shades Cherry Tart and Ruby
Slipper look like they are exactly the same colour on my lips. Out of
the six I have Strawberry and Pink Lemonade are
the best. You can tell what colour they are when they are on your lips and they
are more pigmented that the others too.
Overall I think these are
just basic lipglosses which are not as sticky, but nothing really special and
let’s face it, they are glorified lipglosses, but for £1.50 you get what you
pay for. I probably wouldn’t purchase another one because I barely use the ones
I have, plus I am more into my balm stains and regular lipsticks.
