Fairplay
Smashbox Fairplay Be Legendary Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a very light lavender with a strong white base paired with a satin finish. It was supposed to be matte, but it definitely took a couple of hours for the shine to wear it down to more of a matte finish in my experience.
The Be Legendary formula is supposed to have “rich, vibrant color” that is long-wearing and moisturizing. The consistency was smooth, creamy, and non-tacky but still emollient enough to glide across the lips with ease. It was comfortable to wear for the four and a half hours it lasted, and I felt like it kept my lips hydrated. The consistency was smooth without being too firm in the tube, so it didn’t drag and applied fairly evenly to my lips. The biggest issue I had with this shade was that it tended to look “cracked” as the color pulled apart noticeably wherever I had stronger lip lines. It lasted for three hours on me before fading unevenly enough that it would need a reapplication. The formula was neither drying nor hydrating on me.

Gets It
Smashbox Gets It Be Legendary Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a muted, light-medium pink with cool, blue undertones and a satin finish. The consistency was smooth, velvety without being powdery or dry, so it glided across the lips without tugging. It had mostly opaque color coverage and a medium thickness, which did make the color more prone to pooling in my lip lines (mostly the bottom, deeper ones). It lasted for four hours on me and was just a touch hydrating.

Fanmail
Smashbox Fan Mail Be Legendary Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a bright, lavender pink with warm undertones and a natural finish with fine pearl. It had semi-opaque color coverage with a moderately emollient texture that felt slippery on the lips, so it showed “lines” if I pressed my lips together and gathered in some of my lip lines. I think the brightness of the hue made it harder to notice from a normal viewing distance, though. This shade wore nicely for four and a half hours and was moisturizing.

Pretty colors! Fan Mail is especially cute, and it’s nice that the brightness doubles as a distraction from the pooling into lip lines.
I agree!
Very girl, all!
They are!
“Gets It” applied a lot cooler and paler than I was expecting from the bullet picture.
I know exactly what you mean, Alecto!
the shade fairplay is kinda weird ! i have never tried a shade like that !
It is more unusual!
Uh yikes, not my colors at all, glad there are some lippies I can easily skip, but plenty others to consider!
LOL, we all need to not like some lipsticks this year!
I will leave these shades for those who can pull them off. All 3 have that noticeable white base that looks utterly horrid against my med.olive skintone. The last one, though, Fanmail is actually very pretty on you! I can wear its darker dupe, MAC Pink Plaid. But that’s as pale a cool-tone pink I can do, I’m afraid.
Oops! I just matched the wrong lipstick to the wrong dupe! Sorry! ?
I totally understand, Nancy! Fanmail is probably the only one I can do.
Oh, wow! That’s what we mean when we think UD. Gorgeous eyes. Lips, of course, also look great on you. You can truly wear any shade and show it off to its best advantage.
Thank you, KJH!
I love Fan Mail. It’s a pity Fair Play is so white based, because the bullet color is pretty.
Fair Play is SO hard for me to wear!
