Formula Overview
$27.00/0.1 oz. – $270.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to be “feather-light” and dry down to a “flattering finish that lasts all day.” It is described as “smudge-proof, budge-proof, non-drying, with no chalkiness or crumbling.” It is a lighter-weight, thin, spreadable liquid lipstick that dries down to a matte finish that doesn’t feel heavy nor sink noticeably into deeper lip lines.
The pigmentation varied from semi-opaque to opaque, but in general, they weren’t as boom! pigmented as most liquid lipsticks are on the market. For those who prefer to sheer out or use this type of product as a stain, that might be a major plus. The texture was very thin but spreadable and easy to work with.
Most shades lasted between five and seven hours on me and felt non-drying over time. They wore away gradually/flatteringly, and they were resistant to transfer until a meal.
As far as a formula by Lisa Eldridge, I did feel like this particular formula wasn’t as innovative or as interesting as past releases have been. It felt comparable to other, more modern liquid lipsticks that dry down to a matte finish that have been released.
