Formula Overview
$27.00/0.03 oz. - $900.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have "full-coverage" in a single stroke with a "creamy, hydrating" feel that allows for "razor-sharp pro-level precision." Note, it has "super slim" packaging, which contains very little product (0.03 oz., while the average bullet lipstick contains 0.10 oz.).
The shades were very pigmented with a moderately dense, but not overly firm, feel that applied comfortably across my lips and distributed color evenly. I did not feel like it was any more precise than the average lipstick and would still need a lip brush for "razor-sharp" lines along my top line.
They lasted for over six hours, left light stains behind, and was lightly hydrating over time. There was no discernible taste or scent.

Gigi is beautiful, especially for summer, but I do have MAC Lady Danger, so….
Emilia is a bit more enticing for me, as these more neutral reds work very well on my complexion year-round. Doesn’t hurt that it is simply stunning!
Both are glorious shades – so vibrant, to be worn all year round. Emilia is my favourite.
These are pretty but I’m finding more and more I dislike on me opaque lipstick. I just only wear Fenty Goji Gang anymore. It’s light but has the perfect color and most of all zero taste or smell. Since the pandemic I just can’t wear face cosmetics that have any taste or smell. Got me what that’s about 🤦♀️
