When I put it on I was pleasantly surprised. Being a woman of color, with ummm... slightly larger lips... it's sometimes hard to find colors that don't over exaggerate the lips. But this shade, and gel-based formula looked great! Of course I used concealer around the lips to make it alittle more even, and slightly smaller .. But even without it, it looked really good.
PROS
lasts just about all day
Only have to touch up alittle after I eat
has a nice shine
doesn't seep into cracks of lips
Great price for quality
CONS
May go on alittle sloppy if you apply it unevenly
Repurchase: YES
To add alittle shine, I used NYC's Clear Lip Plumper on top of it. Formula's sticky, but do-able. And makes the lips look candy painted.
