ColourPop Vixen Lippie Stix Set ($30.00 for 0.21 oz.) is a limited edition set of six shades for the holidays. I liked the selection of shades, and I appreciate that there is a variety in the finishes (nice to see another shimmery shade from ColourPop!), but two of the six were stiffer and drier to use, which was disappointing.

Last Call is described as a “soft cool-toned mauve pink [with a Creme finish].” It’s a muted, light-medium pink with cool undertones and a natural sheen. It had good pigmentation that covered evenly with smooth color and a lightly creamy consistency that didn’t tug when applied. This shade lasted for four and a half hours and was neither drying nor hydrating. MAC Friend Like Me (LE, $20.00) is less shimmery, lighter (90% similar). MAC Angel (P, $19.00) is lighter (90% similar). ColourPop Fame (LE, $7.00) is lighter, warmer (90% similar). ColourPop Clueless (DC, $6.50) is darker, less glossy (90% similar).

Ruffle is described as a “mid-tone warm terracotta [with a Matte finish].” It’s a muted, medium-dark brown with warm, yellow-orange undertones and a satin finish. It was fully opaque on the lips, and the color covered evenly and smoothly without gathering into lip lines. The texture was creamy enough not to tug, but it didn’t slide around at all so the wear time was longer at five and a half hours. It felt a little drying after four hours. MAC Oh Honey (P, $20.00) is lighter (95% similar). MAC Persistence (P, $19.00) is lighter (95% similar). Pat McGrath LaBeija (DC, $40.00) is lighter (90% similar).

Jingle is described as a “true blue red [with a Matte finish].” It’s a medium-dark red with subtle, cool undertones and a satin finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation, and the texture of this shade had more slip to it than the average matte in ColourPop’s range. It glided on easily, but I was still able to get really crisp lines straight from the tube. This shade lasted for six hours and left a stain behind. It was neither drying nor hydrating for me. MAC Charlotte (LE, $19.00) is darker, cooler (95% similar). MAC Reddy to Go (P, $20.00) is darker (95% similar). Marc Jacobs Beauty Goddess (202) (PiP, $30.00) is lighter (95% similar).

Night Owl is described as a “vivid cool-toned hot pink [with a Creme finish].” It’s a bright, medium fuchsia pink with cool, blue undertones and a creamy, glossy finish. The texture is thicker and creamier, with a lot more slip, than the majority of ColourPop’s Lippie Stix. It had opaque coverage, but it can show “lines” at times as it is easy to overapply due to the soft consistency in the tube. The color wore well for six hours and was neither drying nor hydrating. Buxom Exhibitionist (DC, $21.00) is lighter (95% similar). Too Faced Melted Jelly Donut (P, $21.00) is darker (90% similar). Urban Decay Crush (DC, $22.00) is lighter, brighter (90% similar).

#54 is described as a “red wine burgundy with red and hot pink glitter [with a Pearlized finish].” It’s a medium-dark, berry-red with fuchsia and ruby red micro-sparkle. The texture had a noticeable grit to it when touched to the lips from the sparkly bits, and the consistency was noticeably drier and stiffer to work with, so it did tug on the lips. This shade lasted the longest, as it was still going strong after six hours, but it was drying. ColourPop Let's Play (LE, $7.00) is cooler (95% similar). Buxom Menace (DC, $21.00) is less shimmery, warmer, glossier (90% similar). Urban Decay Love Drunk (DC, $18.00) is darker (90% similar). Guerlain Orgueil (DC, $49.50) is less shimmery, darker (90% similar). Urban Decay Love Drunk (DC, $18.00) is darker (90% similar). ColourPop Surprise (LE, $6.00) is more shimmery, cooler (90% similar). Tom Ford Beauty Alasdhair (LE, $36.00) is more shimmery, cooler, glossier (85% similar).

Tom Ford Beauty Didier (LE, $36.00) is cooler, glossier (90% similar). See comparison swatches / view dupes side-by-side.

Plastics is described as a “deep red violet [with a Matte finish].” It’s a muted, medium-dark berry purple with cool undertones and a semi-matte finish. This was another shade that had a stiffer, drier texture in the tube, which made it harder to apply to the lips–it tugged and dragged, and the resulting coverage was uneven. The color itself was semi-sheer to semi-opaque. On me, the color lasted for five hours with some settling into lip lines, and it was drying overall. ColourPop Boogie (LE, $7.00) is more shimmery, lighter, cooler (90% similar). Smashbox Femme Fatale (P, $21.00) is darker (90% similar). Pat McGrath Deep Orchid (P, $38.00) is darker, glossier (90% similar). Anastasia #10 (Vol. 1) (PiP, ) is lighter, brighter (90% similar). Maybelline Berry Bossy (DC, $7.49) is warmer (95% similar). Milani I Am Powerful (P, $6.99) is less shimmery, warmer (90% similar). NARS Warm Leatherette (P, $26.00) is lighter, less glossy (90% similar). Urban Decay CSB (DC, $18.00) is darker (90% similar).
