Formula Overview
$15.00/0.12 oz. - $125.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have "vibrant, long-lasting color" with a "satin finish" that "does not crack, bleed, or fade over time." It is also intended to "hydrate lips for up to eight hours while color stays fresh and comfortable all day long." The only issue I really had was that they aren't going to last eight hours as most shades lasted around four hours, while some of the deeper/richer shades (like a red) lasted closer six hours.
The texture was smooth, lightweight, and creamy without being overly heavy, slippery, or prone to feathering, but it had enough slip that some shades had a bit of product settlie into my deeper lip lines--thankfully, it wasn't noticeable from a normal viewing distance in most instances.
The lipsticks were typically opaque in coverage, comfortable to wear, and like a solid, cream/satin finish traditional lipstick. They were easy to apply and reapply throughout the day.
It had a fruity-floral scent, which was mostly noticeable in the tube and had no discernible taste.

Excessively Good looks like a stunning SUMMER red lip option! Doesn’t feel autumnal or wintry, though. Next spring…. 💋
Because I have some excellent deep burgundies, Super Bold just isn’t grabbing me as it appears a bit too slippy and uneven compared to what I already own.
Both lipsticks are gorgeous bright colours, but I think Excessively Good lives up to its name.
