Formula Overview
$9.00/0.13 oz. - $69.23 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to be "richly pigmented with a satin finish" that is "long-lasting," "comfortable," and "hydrating." The lipstick was pigmented with a slightly stiffer/firmer feel, so it felt thinner with minimal slip. I wouldn't describe application as painful, but there was a bit of pulling.
The lipstick adhered evenly for the most part but could have been more smoothing and forgiving of lip texture/lip lines. The lightest shades tended to emphasize lip lines a bit over time.
I found the texture made the formula last longer than average on me, but those who are more sensitive to "cling" may find it not as comfortable as desired. I did not feel like it was clingy in a bad way, where it felt drying or uncomfortable, though.
The formula did not have any noticeable scent or taste.

Standing Ovation
elf Standing Ovation O Face Satin Lipstick ($9.00 for 0.13 oz.) is a light plum with warm, rosy undertones and a satin finish. I also, at times, wanted to describe the color as a dusty coral, but there was enough brown in it that it veered closer to plum-categorized shades.
- Opaque pigmentation
- Lightweight, thin, slightly clingy (but not in a bad way)
- Firmer feel when initially applying
- Color applied evenly, fairly forgiving of lip texture/lip lines
- Long-wearing (4.5 hours), non-drying

Own It looks GLORIOUS! May be a little too cool-toned for my olive undertone, but might still go for it! That is some red, I’m tellin’ ya!
Whilst these aren’t quite my shades, the lipsticks are fabulous looking. So creamy and pigmented. A great range.
If I didn’t have three dupes for Own It I would buy it. I hope elf will keep these lipsticks for a long time, good products at affordable prices are what I want for the future. Of course I’d splurge if something happens to be unique enough and get a really good rating,
