LA Girl Glazed Lip Paints Review

I bought into the hype around these after walking away from them several times, and ended up taking home an LA Girl Glazed Lip Paint in Seduce.

Seduce is a very pretty deep berry colour. These Lip Paints are entitled 'Glazed' and so as you'd expect the gloss factor is off the charts. They are beautiful colours and finishes, but the issues come in quickly. On application it's quite hard to control how much comes out of the applicator (if you can call a hole in a tube an applicator) and because they are on the thin side they bleed like crazy, making your lip line look messy. You need a lip liner and primer with these to tidy them up. Once on, they transfer like mad to anything your lips touch - but a stain does remain on your lips which, while it doesn't have the gloss finish, is still quite pretty. in fact, I've been known to apply it, remove the gloss layer and wear it as a stain.

These paints are mint scented. It's a really fresh clean scent, and great for if you need to freshen your mouth and lippy at the same time (after dinner, perhaps?) if a little on the odd side for a lipstick. I like it though.

All in all, I'll use this one, but doubt I'll buy another as they are fiddly and need a few steps to get them looking great.

Gorgeous packaging and best applied over a lip primer. I have 7 of the colours but tend to use only Whisper which is a nude shade. The brighter colours are a lot fun and super pigmented. Lasts for up to 3 hours before you have re-apply or after eating. Love them nevertheless.

I have only purchased two colours - 'Seduce' and 'blushing' because I wanted to see what the hype was.

I am not a fan of glossy lips - I do prefer matte but wanted to try something different.

First of all the outside packaging is very cute - the colours of the packaging are a little off to the actual lipgloss I felt. However I hate the applicator of it - its super messy and hard to work with. I always end up with lip-gloss over my lip line! It would be better using a brush or if they changed it to a brush style like the two faced melted lip-gloss applicator.

The lipglosses are very pigmented which is very impressing and are super glossy! (not something I will wear much but if you like gloss then try these out).

The lipgloss is minty to help plump your lips (the lady at the shop told me this). It is very refreshing!

The lasting power of the gloss was a little disappointing but I feel like most glosses don't last long anyway so I was kind of expecting it.

The price is so misleading, you'd think for $10 you'd get an average/bellow par lip gloss, paint, etcetera, but these lip paints... Oh my life. I must buy them aaaallllllllllll. I have the lighter purple one and it's such the most beautiful, pigmented, moisturise lip paint I've found in a drug store. I found it at just one life pharmacy on Queen Street. Totally in love, price, quality, everything

There seems to be a bit of a buzz around L.A girl products at the moment so I decided to purchase a few things from make up clearance I brought 2 of these, one in the colour babydoll and the other in blushing.

These were cheap $6.50 each... Winning!! Baby doll is a bright pink colour and blushing is a gorgeous plum colour and is my favourite of the 2. They come in little squeeze tubes which I love HOWEVER the tip on this squeeze tube is just wrong it's not slanted enough so it makes applying it rather... interesting, actually just messy. I also find the hole on the tip where the product comes out quite big so it comes out in a big blob especially if the tube is warm it just runs out. This is just annoying because I love the actual product.

The gloss smells quite minty and apart from it being a bit difficult to apply, it's easy to glide over the lip it's not sticky or gluggy. The colour is bright and it's very glossy it really stands out. It lasts about an hour and it needs to be reapplied, the colour does stain the lips so I make sure I touch up frequently if I'm eating and drinking. I love 'blushing' and have had a lot of comments on it when I wear it. For the price it's great just wish the tip was a bit better

I have seen so many Instagram vids and ads regarding this lipgloss so I just had to try it

I bought the shade Blushing, as it was not too bold and something appropriate for every day. But after using it and falling in love with the intense colour! I will be getting/ experimenting with some more in bolder shades! This lip paint leaves an awesome vibrant colour which lasts! The application process can be a bit messy, so always have a mirror handy and don't think it is one of those lip glosses you can just pop on without looking...

But the gloss is amazing! The peppermint smell was a nice surprise too!

I had seen these all over you tube so I just HAD to get one hehe. I got one in the shade "seduce" as the colour just looks soooo gorgeous. I bought it off makeupclearance for $5, cant go wrong with that!

I love the purple/pinkish packaging with the metallic writing, its so feminine. It has a cute gold coloured lid too. The product is in a little squeezy tube which makes it easy to apply.

The colour is long lasting on my lips however I didnt really like the runnyness and texture of the lip paint, I found that it bled too easily and was quite messy.

I feel like I need to keep this lip paint just for the colour but otherwise I wouldnt buy it again.

This is a product where less really is more. The first time I used LA Girl Glazed Lip Paints, I aimed to squirt a little out and it went on for Africa. So my advice would be to start very small until you get an idea of how much you need. Especially if you have thinner lips. If you squeeze it harder, you will probably end up wasting a lot of product and going through the tube fairly quickly.

Although LA Girl has called this a lip paint, I was expecting a gloss. In terms of pigmentation this is a brightly pigmented lipstick, not a lip stain or gloss. However, in its texture, it is sticky and transfers on everything just like a lipgloss. Also like a lipgloss it doesn't last that well. That would have been the thing that I was most disappointed by in the lip paint. Because it was so pigmented I expected it to behave more like a lipstick. But ultimately it is just a insanely pigmented gloss.

Packaging wise, they capitalized on the paint tube style and didn't have an applicator such as a wand, which meant you kind of had to use your finger unless you wanted to use the tip applicator of a reasonable sized tube.

Overall, I'm not entirely sure how I feel about the LA Girl Glazed Lip Paints. A part of me loves them for their brightness. And a part of me highlights on the things that weren't so awesome.

I remember when these first came out and they were so talked about on youtube. I think people were saying they were a dupe of the Too Faced melted lipsticks? I've never tried those so I'm not really sure. I bought one shade, a light pink (not sure of the shade name), from beauty joint.

The packaging of these look ok, it does look uite cheap to me. It is basically a lipgloss tube style package. It's easy to squish the product up and the screw top lid stays securely on. I don't like the applicator at all. It's a very hard plastic with a too big hole in the middle to let product out. Because it's a hard plastic, it's not the best to apply the product accurately to your lips. And also because the package is squishy and the hole is quite big, it will easily squeeze out too much product. I usually just use my finger to apply it but then of course you are left with a sticky finger. I don't really like either way actually, it needs to have either a wand or a smaller and softer tip.

The actual product is a thinish texture, it's not exactly runny but it is thin enough to easily spread out. If you do a swatch on your hand, it looks beautiful. Very pigmented and shiny. But if you put that much on your lips it would be a mess that ran everywhere. It does have a nice lip feel though, really smooth and not sticky. It has peppermint oil in it too so it has a really nice flavour. That's probably the only thing I like about this! I find this has such a short staying power on my lips, it's gone within 20 minutes even without eating and drinking.

I'm glad I didn't waste a whole heap of money trying this out. I really don't think it's worth buying at all and I could never recommend this to anyone.
