Duo lippies
When I first saw these I couldn't wait to try them out for myself. I loved some more than others but overall I thought they were all beautiful. They looked great individually and together. For me I found they bled easily and they didn't last as long as I thought they would. Obviously the darker color did last longer. I like what I have no but I personally wouldn't purchase these again.
Great colours and I like the design and convenience. It goes on well but I think the chemicals they use are harsh, my lips have felt sensitive hrs later. I've also used their other lipsticks in the past, no problems, but again, recently another lip sensitivity issue after using one of their other lipsticks. :( Probably ok for most gals but not if you are skin sensitive.
It's a longlasting lip color that definitely comes in handy on one of those long days at work. The two-in-one colors are a plus! My favorite shades are the mandarin orange and the blush pink.
I'm picky with lipsticks, I've yet to meet one that I like as much as Clinique and I'm not even loyal to that brand exactly! When attending my Aqua Light blowout through Chick Advisor, the makeup artist on-hand used the flipstick on me and I very quickly fell in love with the colour #825 perky.
Unfortunately, so did a few other people because it was sold out in two different Shoppers Drug Mart locations!
No matter, I went to Wal-Mart a few days later and managed to find the colour I was looking for and have kept it with me in my purse every day since. The lighter pink is a sheer enough colour that it makes my lips stand out but isn't too sweet, and the edgy bright pink side is a great stand-alone colour I can wear to emphasize makeup or even on a nude face to draw attention to my lips.
It still stains and needs a little re-apply now and then, but it's not nearly as staining as my Rimmel. It also doesn't dry out my lips nearly as much as comparable brands at that price point. I'll definitely be buying this again.
I love it, mind you I don't use it as night and day. I use it whenever. Very pretty, recommended it to my sisters and they love it too!
Apparently this product isn't officially released until Spring 2012 - but I found it at Walmart for a presale. This lip colour isn't even shown on the CoverGirl website yet! Basically it's a lip colour that has 2 colours, one on each end. One is supposed to be a cream finish and the other a shimmer. I like that the colours are completely complementary so you automatically have the perfect mix for an ombre lip. I bought mine in Smooch and the colours mix to a perfect holiday red for my complexion!
This product is not very moisurizing I find so you will definitely need a lip balm underneath and perhaps a dab of clear gloss over top if you'd like added shine. It's a little on the expensive side - I think I paid $12. I probably will try this in another colour once the one I have now is all gone.
I can't say I recommend it, but I also do not not recommend it. It's all about preference! If you like to change up colour intensity or go for an ombre lip then this is great. If not, a reg lipstick will also do the trick for a few dollars cheaper!
