I love how nourishing and beautifully pigmented this formula is. It looks like the perfect red on me, but is sheer enough that I don’t look too vampy (if that’s not the vibe I’m going for)

This is my fourth one of these - I’m partial to the sheer black but this one is nice too. A warm dried blood red. Would have liked it to be more sheer, but it wears down quickly into a soft wash.

So I really like the actual product and I like that the packaging is in a glass vial that feels heavy and high quality. However, the opening is barely bigger then the wand and I find with thicker products like this, this causes product to get stuck on the wand and gather above the section where the doefoot gets wiped off of extra product (hopefully that makes sense!). In the end, after some use, there is product on the threads where the lid and vial screw together and it just gets so messy.

It's not a red burgundy, it's a purple burgundy. So it's good for someone who looks good in purple to apply it.

You have to apply it thinly. The thicker you try to apply, the more stain it becomes.

If you want to apply more, you need to apply it again thinly when you feel it has permeated a little after a few minutes.

The scent is "Lausch Shampoo" scent.

I love that these shades can be built upon depending on how dark you want them to be. I also love that my lips don't dry out and my skin doesn't flush/break out from the natural ingredients.

The brown tones make this such a wearable, muted red that looks amazing with no makeup or full glam.

The formula did not settle into my lip lines or gather where my lips are dry. After maybe 20 minutes of wearing the dry rough spots on my bottom lip were completely soft and stayed soft for hours after.
