I'm in love with lipstick of any kind and I have a lot of fun trying out different colours. When a friend told me about these I had to try them. At $4.99 each, the price was right and 18 colours to choose from it was a no miss. If I didn't like them, no foul. As it turned out, I love them!! They apply sheer, but you can layer them for a more vivid look. I love the way they feel and look.
