My Thoughts:

I love the packaging! It’s so cute! I love the quilted look. It’s a creamy lipstick that has great lasting power. The texture is creamy but not glossy. You can wear the lipstick from sheer to opaque. The coverage is also buildable. There is a wide range of colors to choose from and are pigmented. My favorite quality about Revelon Colorburst lipstick is that it feels very light weight. It doesn’t feel heavy at all.  These are definitely now part of my main makeup stash.These definitely give high end lipsticks a run for their money.

My Thoughts:

I’m a fan of NYX lipsticks. They are creamy and go on very smooth. I think because the lipsticks go on so smooth and creamy, it lacks lasting power. However, the colors are pigmented. My only complaint is the smell and taste. It’s not very overwhelming or anything, but it’s present. The taste isn’t the best thing in the world, but I guess that will keep me from licking my lips.

My Thoughts:

This is very similar to Covergirl Continuous Color Lipstick. It’s a moisturizing lipstick that goes on smoothly. There is no weird smell or taste. The differences I could find between Covergirl Continuous Color Lipstick and this lipstick is that Covergirl Continuous Color Lipstick lasts a bit longer and this lipstick provides a bit for shine/gloss.

My Thoughts:

LOVE! I love moisturizing lipsticks and this one by Cover Girl is no exception. Even though this is a moisturizing lipstick, it lasted a very long time! I mean I still had to reapply after eating, but it lasted a lot longer than other moisturizing lipsticks. The shades are either hits or misses so I only get them during BOGO sales. The lipsticks don’t have a weird or taste (thank goodness!). It goes on smooth and feels very light. When the lipstick fades, it leaves back a hint of color.

My Thoughts:

As the name suggests, it is certainly an all day lipcolor. Also like long lasting lipcolor, it can be drying. The balm that comes with it is really moisturizing, but it doesn’t last very long. I felt like I had to reapply it every hour or my lips would be cracked and shriveled dry. I don’t think I will be repurchasing because I’m not a fan of all day lipcolor since dryness comes with it. Even though there is a moisturizing balm, I feel I will be using it all up before I even make a dent in the lipcolor.

My Thoughts:

Not a bad long lasting lipcolor. Yes, long wearing lipcolor are supposed to be drying, but this was too drying for me. However, the colors are really pretty and last forever! The color doesn’t budge at all. When I use Revlon Colorstay Ultimate Liquid Lipstick I just have to make sure my lips are constantly moisturized. It’s not my favorite, but by far not the worse. Give it a try.

My Thoughts:

This is most definitely an outlast all day lipcolor. It lasts all day and all night. It lasts so long I have to use Pond’s Cold Cream to remove it at the end of the day. It’s not as drying as most long wearing lipcolor, but it can be drying. Just be sure to moisturize well before applying the lipcolor and to be sure your lips are well exfoliated also. This allows the color to go on smoothly and won’t accentuate any dry, cracked lips. The best thing about Cover Girl Outlast All Day Lipcolor, besides the lasting color, is the amazing color selection you get. The only complaint I have about Cover Girl Outlast All Day Lipcolor is that the color of the tube doesn’t reflect the actual color of the product. It ends up being darker than the tube color. I found this to be one of the best long lasting lipcolor I have ever tried.

*Tip how to apply: Be sure lips are well moisturized and flake free. Apply a thin layer of lipcolor. Allow the lipcolor to dry. It’s best not to layer so much of the lipcolor, but if you feel the need to layer on more, do so in thin layers. After the lipcolor dries, apply gloss. Viola! Long lasting lipcolor.

My Thoughts:

I found this lipstick rather drying for my liking (the #1 reason why I don’t like matte lipcolor). I prefer moisturizing creamy lipsticks. You have to exfoliate and moisturize your lips well before you apply the lipstick. When you do apply the lipstick, it’s best to dab the color onto your lips because it doesn’t “glide effortlessly across lips.” It’s great if you’re going for the matte lipcolor.
