I owned the shade French Toast and Mai Tai, and they were my absolute favorites. French toast is a gorgeous nude brown which suits my skin tone really well. And Mai Tai is a gorgeous bright orange, which I adore, and love wearing in summer. These lipsticks also don't feather, which I normally have a problem with. Going to repurchase both of these!

This is a nice lipstick. The shade range is quite good but the lipsticks tend to feel a bit drying at the end of the day. There's a good amount of pigmentation and applies evenly.
Tips: If you have dry lips, make sure you exfoliate first as it will show dry patches.
I quite liked the brown shade I had of this lipstick. The shade was French something I'm sure. It wasn't sticky or crumbly and went on smooth and looked great. It lasted pretty well throughout the day however did have to re-apply a few times after eating and drinking. The lipstick I had was a creamy texture so it wasn't Matte but felt very comfortable on the lips.
1995 is my favourite lipstick from GC. I like the formula. It goes on easily and wears fairly well throughout the day. Obviously it doesn't last as long as a liquid lipstick, but because it reapplys and layers well, that's no issue. I like that they feel good quality but still somewhat affordable.
Tips: Wear on top of a lip liner for longer lasting colour.
I absolutely love these lipsticks! I currently own four of them in the shades 1995, Vintage Rose, Rodeo Drive and Passion Play.
Each of these colours look amazing on my ultra fair warm skin tone. 1995 is a lovely warm brown colour with a matte finish. Vintage Rose is a stunning mauve pink with a satin finish, which looks very natural on me. Passion Play is a vibrant warm red that works best with a lip liner to ensure longevity. Finally Rodeo Drive is, on my skin tone, a warm browny pink with satin finish.
Each of them has reasonable staying power for a bullet lipstick. The formula, in itself is neither hydrating nor vary drying. However, if like me, you are prone to dry lips I highly recommend using a good lip balm before applying these lipsticks.
I purchased a lipstick bundle which included 3 lipsticks and 1 liquid lipstick. The lipsticks definitely stand out in my collection as they are gold rather than black. The lipsticks don't melt, I haven't had one snap and they are super moisturizing as well. I have had an issue with the liquid lipstick but this could be from my lips not being moisturized before applying the liquid lipstick.
Tips: Moisturize your lips before you apply the liquid lipsticks
I do like these lipsticks and love the bullet packaging. They are hydrating and there is a lot of colours - and there is always discount coupons floating around so you can get them a little cheaper.
I absolutely love these lipsticks. Especially Jaclyn Hill's 1995. I love the colour. It suits my skin tone wonderfully. Tan or not. (I'm a light olive colour) The packaging is so sleek and adorable. The product itself is nice, it's quite thick and drying but it doesn't feel too heavy on the lips. I love matching it with different lipliners for that ombre effect..
Only downside for me is it transfers and I hate having to retouch up after drinking or eating. Otherwise it wears for a good few hours - with fading but it doesn't go patchy when it does fade.
From the sturdiness of the packaging to the style of the packaging to the actual product, I love these lipsticks. My only regret is that I only ordered two!
Great everyday lipsticks that have a cruelty free formula. Glide onto the lips nicely and has a creamy, matte formula so it is quite durable for a lip product.
My absolute favourite is the shade 1995!
Tips: I love dabbing a little of shade 1995 on my eyes when I am out and about and don't have any eyeshadow on. It takes your day look to a soft nighttime look in seconds!
