ColourPop Sundays in Silverlake Lippie Stix

ColourPop Sundays in Silverlake Lippie Stix Set ($30.00 for 0.21 oz.) includes six, limited edition shades for summer that go from peach to bright pink. The Lippie Stix formula is a twist-up lipstick that comes in a variety of finishes with most of the finishes designed to have richer coverage. Matte finishes are supposed to be: “full coverage” and “long-wearing” and “ultra-comfortable, while cream finishes are supposed to be “full coverage” with “an ultra creamy feel and look.” The satin finish is ddescribed as “full coverage” and “long-wearing” that has a “hydrating feel.” Lastly, the hyper-glossy finish is supposed to have “full coverage” that “melts” and leaves “tons of moisture” with a “glossy finish.” All of the Lippie Stix have a synthetic, vanilla-like scent that sometimes smells synthetic and leans waxy. I don’t notice the scent applied, and I don’t notice any taste. In general, most of the finishes apply without tugging on the lips, have good coverage, and wear at least four hours, but most aren’t hydrating, while the hyper-glossy finish is a little tacky in feel. A few of the really matte shades are drier and can tug, and they can get drying.

Ace is described as a “light warm pink [with a cream finish].” It’s a light-medium, yellow-toned pink with a creamy finish with a light sheen. It had mostly opaque pigmentation that covered fairly evenly, but it had a slightly thicker consistency that made it pull into lip lines noticeably, which worsened as the color wore on. For me, the color lasted four hours and was neither drying nor hydrating, but it kept getting into the lip lines on my bottom lip over time. Tom Ford Beauty Pink Dusk (P, $50.00) is more shimmery, darker. Tom Ford Beauty Pink Dusk (P, $50.00) is more shimmery, darker. Revlon Pink Lemonade (P, $7.49) is lighter, less pigmented.

Parker is described as a “mid-tone warm nude [with a matte finish].” It’s a muted, medium rosy brown with warm undertones and a satin finish. It’s not really matte; there’s a definite sheen there that doesn’t go away for a few hours, though you could blot it away without lifting too much color off of the lips. It was opaque in coverage, but the product did seem to emphasize lip lines to a noticeable degree. On me, the color wore well for five hours, was lightly drying over time, and did separate into lip lines just slightly. Givenchy Brun Cachemire (104) (P, $36.00) is darker, brighter. MAC Bad Girl RiRi (LE, $16.00) is darker, less glossy. Estee Lauder Discreet (P, $30.00) is darker, warmer. Estee Lauder Discreet (P, $30.00) is darker, warmer.

Chella is described as a “mid-tone bright peachy coral [with a cream finish].” It’s a brightened, medium coral-orange with warm undertones and a creamy, lightly glossy finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation that covered well and lasted for five hours on me. It wasn’t drying or hydrating, but there was minor settling into lip lines after four hours of wear. The consistency is really creamy, so it glides on easily, but there is a slight tackiness to it that seems to prevent it from looking streaky. Givenchy Croisiere Coral (310) (LE, $36.00) is darker, cooler, less glossy. NARS Lodhi (P, $25.00) is darker, less glossy. MAC Style Surge (P, $22.00) is darker.

Thirsty is described as a “cool-toned berry pink [with a satin finish].” It’s a softened, medium-dark pink-plum with neutral-to-cool undertones and a satin finish. It had rich, opaque coverage that went on evenly and smoothly. The consistency was creamy enough not to tug but didn’t feel heavy or slide around. It wore for six hours and was slightly drying after four hours of wear, but it didn’t pull into lip lines. Chanel Fougueuse (138) (P, $34.00) is brighter, glossier. Urban Decay Turn On (P, $22.00) is lighter, brighter. MAC Yield to Love (LE, $16.00) is darker, warmer. Givenchy Hibiscus Exclusif (302) (P, $36.00) is lighter, brighter, glossier. Chanel Rayonnante (145) (P, $34.00) is brighter. ColourPop Sweet-Thing (LE, $5.00) is lighter. Urban Decay Sheer Ladyflower (P, $20.00) is darker, less pigmented, warmer. Estee Lauder Reckless (P, $30.00) is darker, brighter, glossier. MAC Nouvelle Vogue (LE, $16.00) is lighter, warmer. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

Pasties is described as a “bright cool-toned magenta [with a hyper-glossy finish].” It’s a medium-dark, fuchsia magenta with cool, blue undertones and a glossy finish. It had mostly opaque pigmentation that covered fairly evenly, despite having a thicker, more emollient texture. It has more weight to it than the other finishes, but it wasn’t drying at all (I wouldn’t call it hydrating, though!). It lasted for five hours and left behind a stain. There are a lot of dupes for this type of shade with very matte finishes, but there are still plenty of dupes that are satin or shinier.

Cougar is described as a “bright pinky-red [with a matte finish].” It’s a bold, brightened, medium-dark fuchsia-red with cool, pink undertones and a mostly matte finish. It was richly pigmented with just enough slip that it didn’t tug much at lips and didn’t catch on the lips’ imperfections. It wore for eight hours, but it started to feel drying after five hours of wear. Marc Jacobs Beauty Voila! (120) (P, $30.00) is lighter. Urban Decay Catfight (P, $22.00) is darker, warmer.
