I used to use the Elizabeth Arden Lip-Fix Cream every day before applying lipstick, for a period of a few months. Over this time I came to find that although the cream does prevent lipstick from bleeding and feathering, applying a lipstick in certain ways achieves the exact same result without the $51 price tag.
The product comes in a small, white tube, with a thin nozzle with which you apply the product. It's simple and minimal, which I like about Elizabeth Arden. The cream itself is also white, and you only need to apply a tiny (and I mean tiny) dob to your lips, before smoothing in and allowing to dry. Following this, lipstick applies very much the same as if on non-primed lips, and although it does fade more evenly through the day and doesn't bleed or feather quite as much, I can't help but feeling like it's a bit of a placebo product.
After using this for a long time, I decided to experiment with just wearing straight lipstick, either applied on top of a balm acting as the Elizabeth Arden Lip-Fix Cream, or on it's own by smudging it in first to really stain the lips. I found both of these methods made the product last just as well as the Elizabeth Arden Lip-Fix Cream did, leaving me a little unimpressed.
Other than that, however, it IS a good product, and it definitely will help if you suffer from lipstick that bleeds or feathers very easily.
A nice plain white tube with a narrow snout, so the cream comes out like a skinny we spaghetti. This is a white cream that softens my lips with a matt finish, it's not drying on my lips more the opposite a little bit off conditioning. This is good for under my lip stick to stop any feathering or bleeding and also handy when I have a cold sore and I'm in need off getting lipstick on top off it and staying on it. This is easy to apply it doesn't make my lips sticky and just a tiny amount is needed. It does help the creamy lipsticks stay a little longer so I don't end up looking like the joker from batman especially if I'm wearing a red. I'm not overly sold on this product I think it's dare for what it does.
Tips: Just a tiny amount is needed
