Formula Overview

$36.00/0.12 oz. - $300.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "medium to full coverage" with a "dimensional cream finish" that is long-lasting (10 hours without bleeding, feathering, or creasing, per the marketing). It's a creamy, lightweight lipstick that applied evenly and smoothly (for most shades that I tried) that was comfortable to apply. I would not describe it as long-wearing, though, as most shades lasted between four and five hours with some of the richer, reddish shades lasting closer to six hours.

It had a moderately emollient consistency, which didn't feather or bleed on me, but it was less forgiving of lip texture/lip lines at times, especially as it wore down. I felt like it had a lot of slip but that slip disappeared after an hour or two, which left the remaining product feeling a little clingy and more prone to emphasizing lip lines/lip texture. I found this formula to be more non-drying than hydrating over time.

The previous formulation was glossier in its finish, slightly sheerer when I compared a few shades (of the same name) side-by-side. The ingredient lists are significantly different--not even a bit similar--as the first ingredient of the Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick was castor seed oil, and this doesn't even have that at all. Instead, the updated formula has red raspberry seed oil, meadowfoam seed oil, and apricot seed oil, but much, much further down in the ingredient list. The prior formula was kinder to my lips, had a bit more substance to it, so the wear down was more flattering and lasted longer.

It seemed to have a faint sweet, vanilla-like scent but no discernible taste.

Formula Overview

-

The formula is supposed to be "highly pigmented" with "stay-true color" that won't smudge, crease, or settle into fine lines and doesn't "flake or dust onto face." The quality of the more matte shades was typically higher than the shimmer shades, but all of the finishes seeme to be particularly short-wearing and made it seem like my lids "ate" the eyeshadows quite quickly.

Some of the shimmers were drier and thinner, which resulted in uneven application and some fallout, particularly with the more sparkly shades. The matte eyeshadows were more pigmented and smoother on average but still were on the thinner side with slight to moderate powderiness, which resulted in light fallout and/or the color sheering out too readily on bare skin.

Formula Overview

$36.00/0.12 oz. - $300.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "medium to full coverage" with a "velvety matte finish" that lasts for 10 hours without "bleeding, feathering, or creasing." They had semi-opaque to opaque color payoff in a single layer with a very lightweight feel--more of a velvety matte but thin (not in a bad way, as it wasn't clingy) and had a medium-firm feel in the tube. Most shades applied more evenly and were more forgiving of lip lines/lip texture than I expected, which was a nice surprise.

They didn't cling on uncomfortably, which felt good, but the wear time was nowhere near 10 hours--four to five hours with a few shades coming in at six hours, but it wasn't a particularly long-wearing/stellar wear kind of formula.

The previous formula was a denser, more velvety matte with slightly more weight and body to it, so it had higher coverage in a single stroke but was more noticeable on. In comparison, the previous formula also had a touch more shine, despite being labeled matte. The ingredient lists are quite different with the new formula being comprised of several silicone-based ingredients in the beginning of the list.

It seemed to have a faint sweet, vanilla-like scent but no discernible taste.

Formula Overview

$36.00/0.12 oz. - $300.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "medium to full coverage" with a "dimensional cream finish" that is long-lasting (10 hours without bleeding, feathering, or creasing, per the marketing). It's a creamy, lightweight lipstick that applied evenly and smoothly (for most shades that I tried) that was comfortable to apply. I would not describe it as long-wearing, though, as most shades lasted between four and five hours with some of the richer, reddish shades lasting closer to six hours.

It had a moderately emollient consistency, which didn't feather or bleed on me, but it was less forgiving of lip texture/lip lines at times, especially as it wore down. I felt like it had a lot of slip but that slip disappeared after an hour or two, which left the remaining product feeling a little clingy and more prone to emphasizing lip lines/lip texture. I found this formula to be more non-drying than hydrating over time.

The previous formulation was glossier in its finish, slightly sheerer when I compared a few shades (of the same name) side-by-side. The ingredient lists are significantly different--not even a bit similar--as the first ingredient of the Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick was castor seed oil, and this doesn't even have that at all. Instead, the updated formula has red raspberry seed oil, meadowfoam seed oil, and apricot seed oil, but much, much further down in the ingredient list. The prior formula was kinder to my lips, had a bit more substance to it, so the wear down was more flattering and lasted longer.

It seemed to have a faint sweet, vanilla-like scent but no discernible taste.
