Sephora Rouge Lacquer (10 Survivor)

Sephora Rouge Lacquer (10 Survivor)What I love about it The formula is comfortable to wear on the lips; theres no need for lip balm anymore due to the hydrating, balmy texture of the lipstick. This is going to be a treat on dry lips! Its also more forgiving appearance wise for those who have flakes and texture. The finish is glossy and it makes the lips look juicy, even if I have a lot of lip lines. You get full on color, and most of the shades are fairly opaque and apply evenly. There

What I love about it

• The formula is comfortable to wear on the lips; there’s no need for lip balm anymore due to the hydrating, balmy texture of the lipstick. This is going to be a treat on dry lips! It’s also more forgiving appearance-wise for those who have flakes and texture.

• The finish is glossy and it makes the lips look juicy, even if I have a lot of lip lines.

• You get full-on color, and most of the shades are fairly opaque and apply evenly.

• There are twenty shades available, and they’re all gorgeous.

• There’s no taste or smell I can sense.

• The packaging! I love the multi-faceted bullet as it reflects light so prettily in all angles. It’s sleek and feels premium even at an affordable P745 price tag.

Neutral

• This has a balmy, hydrating formula, so unlike other waxy lipsticks with a matte or satin finish, it has less of a staying power. It’s average at 2-3 hours before I need to retouch. The brighter, more intense shades leave a nice stain while the deepest shades like L06 and L01 will fade from the center rather unevenly. It’s easy to retouch though as the lipstick doesn’t flake or get patchy so I don’t mind the staying power as much. This is a lip product I would wear for the finish + color.

What I don’t like about the product

• The ten most wearable shades are a breeze to apply because I don’t need to be precise. However, for the other ten (the reds, and plums), the fat flat tip is difficult to work with. I get OC about my edges so it was a challenge to get these more intense/deeper colors within the lines. I would recommend using a lip brush!
