Purple Onyx (07)

Lancome Purple Onyx (07) Le Metallique Metallic Lip Lacquer ($22.00 for 0.10 fl. oz.) is a blackened plum with fine gold, violet, and burgundy pearl. It had semi-opaque color coverage, but it did not apply well–it was uneven and all of the color pooled into my lip lines. The gloss still had a tackier, thicker texture, though it was long-wearing at five and a half hours. It was hydrating and comfortable to wear, at least.

The Le Metallique formula is supposed to have “full-coverage” with a “rich, creamy texture” that is hydrating and long-wearing. First and foremost, if you do not like tacky gloss, you’ll want to stay far away from these; the formula is very tacky and is a thicker, denser formula. They are longer wearing as a result, though, and most shades fell within four to six hours of wear for me and retain a really high-shine, high-gloss finish that almost looks wet and lasts throughout the wear time. Most shades were semi-opaque to opaque, but as the formula was thicker, I would hesitate to add more product to get more coverage. They seemed to have no discernible scent or taste to me.

Cuivre Casting (08)

Lancome Cuivre Casting (08) Le Metallique Metallic Lip Lacquer ($22.00 for 0.10 fl. oz.) is a deep copper with warm, brown and red undertones and gold and copper pearl. It had semi-opaque pigmentation, which went on fairly evenly, though some of the color still found its way into my lip lines and made them appear darker. The texture was light-medium in weight, very tacky, but it had an incredibly high-shine finish that looked wet on. This shade wore well for six hours and was moisturizing while worn.

It had semi-opaque color payoff with a smooth, tacky, and light-medium weight texture. It smoothed over the lips easily, and while the gloss applied evenly, some color settled into my lip lines. The gloss stayed on well for five hours and was moisturizing.
