Solo

Kat Von D Solo Studded Kiss Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.10 oz.) is described as a "metallic gold-kissed tangerine." It's a light-medium, yellowed orange with gold pearl and a frosted, matte finish. It is much lighter than Halo but shares the same type of finish. This shade had more shimmer in it, and you can feel the texture of the shimmer when applying and if you press your lips together. It had mostly opaque pigmentation, while the lipstick had a light creaminess so it glided across the lips but didn't feel clingy. The color wore for six and a half hours but was moderately drying after three hours of wear. MAC Banana Muffins (LE, $17.50) is glossier (90% similar).
