76% OF CHICKS DIG IT
Love the name ,works well, though it’s supposed to work on all types of lipsticks and I didn't have any problem, but I probably just have to wait for it to dry longer if I am using it on a moisturizing lipstick , I’ve been using this for so many occasion and haven’t been disappointed yet!
I received this lipstick topcoat as part of my welcome gift from ChickAdvisor premium. It's easy to apply, and does seem to extend the life of my lipstick. It did make my lips feel a little dry, but not as dry as other lipstick sealants have that I've used in the past.
Overall I would recommend this product!
I love it
At first I found that it wet but surprisingly it dry it dried and my lips were sealed.
I will certainly buy some when done
I tried it with the Mac lipstick in the welcome gift of ChickAdvisor and with other type and worked aswell.
Sure am glad to have gotten this as part of my #ChickAdvisorPremium welcome kit. The most important thing I did first was grab out those instructions which essentially told me to not double-dip and to wipe the stick off before putting it back into the tube (which, in my opinion, should be written on the tube itself).
It works best with Matte lipsticks (like the Katy Kat COVERGIRL series) or even a semi-matte (like the Mary Kay gel semi-matte that was also included in the ChickAdvisor Premium welcome kit).
As it promises, after 5-10 minutes, I was able to take a sip of tea without leaving my mouth behind on the cup.
I tried it with all my different kinds of lipsticks (cream, balm, matte, semi-matte):
My matte and semi-matte both yielded the same results. The colour stayed as vibrant as when first applied and by the 10-minute kiss test, there were zero colour transfers. For the matte testing, I used Katy Kat Matte and Mary Kay Gel Semi-Matte, respectively.
The cream lipstick (L'Oreal Colour Riche Lip Colour) really didn't mix well with the top coat. The kiss test after ten minutes was still slightly smudgy. Not too surprising though, because it is a lipstick with built-in moisture. The topcoat isn't made to dry my lips out...
My balm lipstick, just a slight smudge was shown after 5 minutes with the topcoat applied. After 10 minutes, my test area was clear. That being said, so were my lips. The colour had completely faded from my lips and I had to reapply lipstick. Which meant reapplying the topcoat. After 10 minutes, same story. So, I wouldn't use it for balms either (I tested with L'Oreal Colour Riche Lip Balm).
I say You Betcha! I recommend to try this topcoat, especially for Matte fans... but...
For $25, I personally wouldn't buy it again. Mostly because I don't wear matte lipstick very often. So, I'd just spend the money on a few tubes of $8-10 cream lipsticks with a sealer already in the stuff.
That being said, I know a lot of rockabilly chicks out there would absolutely love this topcoat in all its glory. So, I'll be for sure recommending this to all my lovely pin-up girls.
I received this product through the premium chickadvisor club. I honestly don't wear alot of lipstick, but when I do it is for a special occasion or going out somewhere special. The product works well and does exactly what it claims to do, but it drys out my lips. I couldn't figure out why they got so dry, but after using the product a couple of times I figured out it was definitely the topcoat. I also think it is really expensive when a lot of lipsticks now have a built-in seal that works great.
I received this in my ChickAdvisor Premium kit. I found No my lips are sealed it be a great product for my makeup bag, as it helped keep my lipstick color from smudging and keep my color on longer. I find the price is a little to high for this product.
