I generally don't like lipsticks that aren't in bullet form but I couldn't ignore all the BR enablers on here! There are a 6-7 finishes available but I only bought lippies with a matte finish with my favourites being Lumiere and LBB (LittleBlackBoots).
They come in a white twist up pen which from afar reminds me of cheap chunky felt pens. Amongst the sea of white it's easy to identify the shade your after because the colour is marked at the end of the pen.
Oddly enough I don't find any of the shades I bought to be matte-like. They're semi-creamy with a bit of shine and hold so that it clings comfortably to the lips. I really enjoy how it feels - my lips feel like they have sort of soothing balm on. They apply on like a dream no tugging or dragging and I don't find them drying at all BUT they bleed a little too easily.
The longevity is decent 4-5 hours but the pigmentation is fantastic with the darker shades staining your lips. I like to apply this with a brush I just think it lasts a little longer and doesn't bleed as much.
Everyone raves about Lumiere so I'll focus on LBB - it's a gorgeous plum wine shade perfect for autumn or if you're like me and don't follow such seasonal lippies it's perfect for anytime hehe!
These could have easily been my new favourite lipsticks but it moves a little too much for my liking.
I just made a huge colourpop order and I got a bunch of lippie stix, they have quickly become my new favourite lip sticks, they're super long lasting, they come in so many colours and are really affordable (the postage to nz is super pricey though) but I really like them so much, I can't think of anything I would change about them, they do have a slight scent but it's nothing offensive. All the shades I got were in a matte finish and they last all day without being drying,
