MY VIEWS: The lipstick has a glossy-liquidy formula.Its like liquid lipstick.It not very runny,it’s quite thick actually which keeps the lipstick in place.It not very sticky but I feel that I have put something on lips.

The shade is insanely pigmented and one swipe is all that is needed.It stays for good 6-7 hours with minor feathering but its does leave a stain behind.The shade brightens up my skin and adds vibrancy to the face.It feels comfortable on lips though a little feeling of heaviness!!

 

RATING: 3.75/5

RECOMMENDATION: Love the shade and the formula.Highly recommended!!
