NYC New York Color Smooch Proof 16HR Lip Stain in Persistent Pink |
It has a really nice finish; it's not glossy but it's not matte. It's surprisingly not drying, which is saying something coming from a lip balm junkie! I didn't even have to slick on a coat of balm after I applied this to make it comfortable. It felt lightweight and wasn't remotely sticky or tacky. The felt-tipped marker applicator was super easy to use and the stain applied evenly. It had a faintly fruity scent that faded shortly after I swiped it on, and it's flavor-free.
The BIG question: did it last 16 hours? Um...no. Does anything? Not that I've found! I was only able to eek out 3 hours of wear before the stain seemed to have completely vanished. It did pass the kiss test, though; not a speck of color was transferred. I didn't notice any transfer on the glass of water I sipping, either.
Although this stain didn't stand up to it's outrageous claim of roof-raising 16 hour color, it was comfortable to wear and applied like a dream.
My Rating: B+
Cost: $4.99 MSRP
