ColourPop Wig & She Cute Ultra Satin Liquid Lipsticks Reviews & Swatches
Wig
ColourPop Wig Ultra Satin Liquid Lipstick ($6.50 for 0.11 oz.) is a deep red with subtle, cool undertones and a satin finish. It had rich color coverage in a single layer, which applied evenly and spread well across my lips. The consistency was lightweight, smooth, and not too thick or too thin, which made it easier to apply without it overflowing past my lip line nor did it emphasize my lip lines. It was a bit more emollient than some Ultra Satins, but it still had that semi-set dry down. The color was still going strong after eight hours of wear and was neither drying nor hydrating over time.

Formula Overview
$7.00/0.11 oz. - $63.64 Per Ounce
It is supposed to be a “lightweight, bold lipstick with a satin finish”liquid lipstick that is “extra intense colour saturation” and “long-wearing,” but the brand is quick to note that it is “not completely kiss proof.” The consistency is very light to lightweight with a thin to mousse-like consistency–they feel a little heavier going on than the Ultra Matte formula, but they don’t feel heavy on. They dry down somewhat, but it isn’t a full, flat dry down like matte liquid lipsticks, and when you press your lips together, there is moderate tackiness there, but I didn’t notice any lifting or separating of color by doing so.
They have been extremely long-wearing and comfortable to wear for the most part–it’s after ten hours or so that I notice my lips feeling a little dry–but six hours into wear and the colors have looked good post-meals/post-drinking. I think if you like the idea of longer-wearing, mostly matte lip color but find most liquid lipsticks too drying or too flat while not needing an ultra-hydrating formula, you might like these.

She Cute
ColourPop She Cute Ultra Satin Liquid Lipstick ($6.50 for 0.11 oz.) is a bright, medium-dark peach with strong, warm orange undertones and a satin finish. It had good pigmentation but wasn’t opaque in one layer. The texture was slightly emollient, which helped it spread easily across my lips, but it gravitate toward my lip lines and did not offer the full coverage application that most of the Ultra Satins offer. It lasted well for five and a half hours and was non-drying.

While She Cute is just one big “no” for me, I am really digging Wig! That is the *perfect* wintertime/holiday cranberry red! So rich and lush looking!
Wig is gorgeous!!! And I like the splashy tube design. I would normally want this very much, but I have absolutely no excuse to buy another red lipstick. None. Zero. Zip. Just say no.
Wig is a beauty!
OMG that Wig shade is phenomenal!
I love Wig and love it even more after seeing it in your Lit palette review. I will add it to my ColourPop order. I haven’t ordered anything from ColourPop in quite a while so there are a few things I am going to pick up.
