    #gotitfree @ #chickadvisorshowcase For a matte lipstick it is creamy. Applies easily and smoothly. No fragrance and it doesn't taste funny. I got to try Poppy Please a coral color. I'm not a fan of the price, a little high at $21 for me. But I prefer gloss. After wearing it for awhile my lips don't feel too dry, I don't feel like I need to lick my lips.

    Not a great product overall, glad it was received for free because I would not buy it. Leaves a gummy feeling on the lips and doesn't allow you to be able to talk without feeling like your lips are really heavy.

    Fun putting it on cause we got to try 2 kinds but its not as hydrating as I want it to be. The color is alright. Defiantly a bit more matte than my liking.

    I love the Color midnight red but feels thin and greasy and comes off easily so stains face around lips, seems like an average price but not sure how long it will stand up for

    I got to test out a couple of free samples at the ChickAdvisor event (thank you!), but the colours I got didn't suit me at all! They looked great in their packages--a vibrant red "poppy please" and a deep pink "powerful pink", but on my lips the red looked more like an orange coral and the pink looked like a 80s fuchsia...the lipstick itself feels rich and creamy, so maybe I would've liked it in another shade.

    I found it a little hard to put on. It felt light on my lips but did feel a little dry. I don't normally wear matte or semi matte lipsticks so I liked that it did not have a sticky feel to it.

    #mksemimatte luxury in a tube. It's been a long time since I used Mary Kay lipstick, and I had forgot what a wonderful line of products they offer. This is a keeper

    I received this product for free at the Chick Advisor Showcase event. I tried two colours, Poppy Please and Powerful Pink. Poppy Please was a little too bright for my liking but Powerful Pink was good. It took some time to apply as it did not spread naturally, perhaps due to the fact that I had just removed the last lipstick. It stayed on through a cup of coffee and lots of chatter though so I was happy!

    I like the feel of the lipstick. Nice and creamy feel. It applied well. The colors look deceiving when you put it on. The red ( poppy please) had a more orange tone to it. The dark red was really nice when you put it on. As a free sample, trying the different colors was fun. To buy and just looking at the colors not being able to sample it would be hard at this price point

    Trying on lipsticks at a food event is super challenging because I still want to eat after! Anyways, the mat lipsticks applies easily and we tried three colours. An orange red, pink and a velvet red. The color appears a bit different on everybody due to the lip colour and they all look really nice. It did make my lip feel really dry and showed my lip line. Does not stay on too well as it leaves lip stain on the cup. #mksemimatte
