The colour is great and pigmented but it transfers easily. I can also feel it on my lips all day which is a deterrant for me. I'll keep using it, but I won't buy again.

The product is very effective in that it stays on forever! I wake up with it on the next day, the downside is that it dries out your lips and you constantly have to be moisturizing them on top of the color.

This is a good lip stain, got it on a sale. It lasts quite a while and isn't too drying. I add some aquaphor on top to keep it lasting and put throughout the day. Also helps to keep lips moisturized!

I'm not sure how much it's worth, since I haven't actually used many lip stains, but this is favourite! It goes on smooth like a balm but without the waxy or sticky feeling that comes with some of them. The colour is pigmented and flattering for most skin tones, I believe, but not too bold that it couldn't be worn every day. The stain has lasted me all day the first time I wore it, but only a few hours the next time I used it. I'm not sure what I did differently but I'll be sure to test out its wear again.

Having a lipstain is great because even when the product is gone, it's still there on your lips to add a pop of color without having to readd the lipstick over and over again.

I love its luster and long lasting colour all day long.
