Long-Wear Lip Crème

I expected a true red, but this color has a lot of pink tones. I generally like this product and have 4 different colors. However, all four arrived in different colors than I expected.

Got this in Fraise Bonbon, Petale De Rose, Penny, and Brique- previously had one in Cayenne. These are my absolute favorite lipsticks! The colors are so beautiful and long wearing (especially with a bit of chapstick before applying.) I can usually eat a meal and have drinks through out the day with only needing to do some small touch up close to the inner lip.

Color is pretty bright, but still nice. Sadly it didn't wear as well as the Cassis color. Will try it again soon.

I never thought red was my color...I was wrong. Fraise Bonbon is more of a brick color on me. It doesn't transfer, and stays all day, until I remove it. I have of course come back to purchase more. I get compliments every time I wear it.

This shade is amazing! It's very opaque when it goes on and completely dries down to a full matt finish. That being said though, it it thicker and feels stiff when dried and did crumble a little at the end of the day. I do prefer the JS formula.

I love this shade (Fraise Bonbon), and I can't believe how long the color lasts! I have tried many other long-wearing lipsticks, but this lasts much longer than the rest. I applied it the way I usually apply liquid lipstick, which is to brush it on, wait about ten minutes, and then blot off as much as I can. After that, it still looked fresh and strong, but it didn't come off on anything at all. Hours later, after eating, drinking, and talking, the color was still perfect. At that point it didn't look like lipstick exactly, more like a lip stain, but that's fine with me. I'm thrilled to have something that gives great color without worry about fading or rub-off.

As the day progressed my lips grew very sticky and the lipstick clumped. Trying to remove with tissue is impossible. I am very dissatisfied.

Not only is the color gorgeous and formula comfortable, but the color is 100% matte and transfer-proof. It's super pigmented and not streaky at all. Plus, the scent is a delicious cake batter. I just bought two colors, but I am going to have to get all of them!
