Review (3/5): It really works! But only at first.
UPDATE: it’s been a little over a month and this has definitely stopped working as well. There’s plenty left in the tube (I use it 2-3 days per week) and it goes on fine. However, when I spritz the fixative, the color bleeds a bit into my skin. It does wipe off. And then last night during dinner I noticed it wiping off onto my white napkin about 2hrs after application. By 6hrs later it was completely gone. Really disappointed and won’t be buying it again.
I didn’t really think it would work, but it’s actually amazing! It’s a little hard to get it the right consistency the first time, but I’m better now. My photos are from my first application. From the top: nothing on my lips, Romance after about 30 seconds, with clear lip balm, next morning / 18hrs later (I bit my lip in my sleep). I really love this and will be buying other colors. I wish it were more affordable or they offered multi color packs, but so glad I found this lip stain!
