Needs Work!

I'm a fan of the really smooth and really pigmented application this lipstick gives and the little flecks of gold that make my lips shimmer and shine without gloss. However, this lipstick faded four hours into my day! My bright magenta-pink lips had turned baby pink fading into pale pink! Formula needs more hydration too, otherwise this lipstick has serious potential!

Worked well

I normally don't wear lipstick, but I liked the colors and with a little gloss on top, it really made my lips pop.

Their $1 shine L/S is better

This lipstick didn't have much pigmentation as their other lipstick, and it's more drying. It's not creamy nor moist, and the color selection is not as great. It also doesn't retract all the way down, so putting the cap back on is not easy to do quickly without messing up. Buy two of their $1 lipsticks instead of this and you won't be disappointed.

Plunk! There It Goes Into the Trash

While probably only a select few of these days are flattering shades, the color selection is terrible especially with so many metallics on the shelf. I found that after purchasing a couple of these, I had chapped lips with lipstick on it which looked terrible and adding balm doesn't exactly cure the problem. If you find a shade that goes great on you, I'd suggest laying a sheer gloss over it so ...read morethat it doesn't look so opaque and metallic or chunky as I've found with these. And the worst part of these lipsticks is that they can feather and bleed, I've seen it worn on an acquiantance and it's not a pretty picture to see.

Needs tweaking

These lipsticks are fine for the price. I wouldn't say that they're particularly long lasting, but you're probably not going to get superior staying power for a dollar unless you choose a really dark shade (which I didn't). When it comes to the color, what you see is exactly the what you get - they're not sheer at all (which I like, but some may not). This lipstick is pretty drying on it's own, an...read mored the shade selection can be a bit unnatural for how rich the color is, so I suggest layering them with a colored gloss. The "Mousse" shade, layered with a lighter gloss works really well for me.

Great lipstick

This lipstick is pretty, non-drying and wears well. For 2 bucks, how can you top that?

I Own A Few...

...and frankly, I think their dollar lipsticks are better. This lacks the same level of pigmentation, and tends to dry out my lips a lot more. Same packaging problems with this NYC lippie as with other NYC lipsticks, unfortunately.

Mousse, rose gold & snowcone!

Mousse is my favorite one. Its a more brown toned nude colour that I use for my cheeks as a blush. Rose gold is kind or a red coral colour with gold flecks in it. Snowcone is a pink colour kind of in between a bubble gum pink & a hot pink with some mettalic undertones. Over all I love these lipsticks! Exept the cap does not stay on and one of them smeared all over my vera bradley!

I'm surprised

I bought two different shades, the Caramel and Rose Gold. I have to agree that they are a bit drying if you do not used balm underneath. I normally get six hours of wear with this lipstick. Other than the wear time, I think it's not bad for the price.

Needs Some Work

This is not what I expected from it. I took this color that looked like a nude pink and it faded away in, like, two and a half hours. The color didn't look good on me anyway, but it was, like, just $1.79 at Target. I guess I should just stick with their lip stain instead. But they have a nice color variety, I guess I was unlucky and took a wrong color. But the color looks nice on my friend if you ...read moreadd some sheer lip gloss on top, it really pops. Overall, I would buy it again, just in a different shade, perhaps red.
