Secretly
Hourglass Secretly Confession Lipstick ($34.00 for 0.03 oz.) is a rich, medium-dark red with subtle, cool undertones and a satin finish. It had intense, full color payoff in a single layer, while the lipstick had a lightweight, creamy texture that applied evenly and glided effortlessly across the lips but still sat well, didling gather in my lip lines, and was comfortable to wear. This shade was still going strong after six hours of wear and was lightly moisturizing.
The formula is supposed to have “creamy, saturated, longwearing color with a satin finish.” It’s a light-medium thick formula that was typically opaque with a lightly creamy texture that glided on without tugging but did not slide around while worn. The majority of shades had a natural to satin finish, and they lasted anywhere from four to seven hours with light hydration. The best performing shades were light to dark while the lightest and deepest shades weren’t quite as consistent.
The lipstick can be purchased with the full packaging/applicator for $34 or as a refill-only for $22. The refill packaging is substantial enough that it is usable on its own, as there’s a detachable base that the refillable cap clicks onto (with an audible click), but they are very slim–and that’s not a surprise given they only contain 0.03 oz. making them one of the smaller lipsticks on the market. Slim lipsticks typically contain around 0.07 oz. of product and are usually smaller than the average standard lipstick tube (which tends to be between 0.10 and 0.12 oz.).

I Can't Live Without
Hourglass I Can’t Live Without Confession Lipstick ($34.00 for 0.03 oz.) is a medium-dark, rosy plum with subtle, warm undertones and a cream finish. It had excellent pigmentation that applied evenly and easily across the lips without tugging. The lipstick had a lightweight, creamy texture that didn’t feel too slippery on the lips, so it stayed in place over five and a half hours and did not feather on me. The formula felt lightly moisturizing while worn.

So much money for such a small amount of lipstick, but wow, those colors certainly are gorgeous!!!
My wallet says “pass.”
Money saved!
At night is a nice color, not sure if I could wear it but nice anyway 🙂
It is a pretty color!
Aren’t I the blessed one, having MAC Russian Red, Chanel Rouge Vie and UD Bad Blood?!? All SUPER close or even exact dupes for all 3!
However… because “I Can’t Live Without (Ice Cream and Cats)” , I really would’ve loved if these had held at least .07 or more of product. Because; THAT name!
I know! If only 🙁
I’m very into I Can’t Live Without, it’s a perfect everyday shade without being too Vampy. I think I might go for Vie though. I know it’s more expensive but I think you get more in the tube.

I’m pretty sure you do!
Love the color of I Can’t Live Without, going to have to look at the dupes tho.
Great pick! 🙂
These lipsticks are so gorgeous, especially Secretly and At Night. But so, so expensive too.
They are beauties!
Not so sure what’s more stunning, the lipstick itself or the price!
The price for sure!
These seem like top quality and I love the colours they come in, but yes, pricey indeed!
They are nice re: quality!
Are these scented or flavored?
Vanilla scent, no flavor.
I wish these Hourglass lipsticks weren’t so expensive for what you get — I really love a few of these colors and am impressed with the quality, but I don’t feel like I can justify it. 🙁
And I don’t mean just in this trio, but over the Confessions line as a whole.
