Kaylie

Sydney Grace Kaylie Lip Gloss ($10.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a dusty, medium coral with moderate, warm undertones and a cream finish. It had good color coverage in a single layer, which spread evenly across my lips but settled and pulled away a bit around my deeper lip lines. The consistency was light-medium in thickness with moderate tackiness, though it was lightweight and stayed in place well. It wore nicely for five hours and felt hydrating over time.

The formula is supposed to be a "cross between a lipgloss and a lipstick" that is "moisturizing." The brand recommends using a lip liner with darker colors. It had the coverage of a lipstick with more of the feel and application of a lipgloss in my experience.

The majority of the shades have good opacity and are near-to or full coverage, which go on with minimal to no streaking but a few shades settled into my deeper lip lines more noticeably. The texture was more light-medium in thickness with moderate tackiness, and while not heavy, it was a heavier gloss than most on the market currently. It has a very smooth feel as it goes on, and it was comfortable to wear, hydration, and lasted longer than the average gloss--five to six hours.

Sarah

Sydney Grace Sarah Lip Gloss ($10.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a medium-dark, rosy mauve with subtle, warm undertones paired with a cream finish. The texture was smooth, spreadable with moderate tackiness and was more light-medium in thickness, though I wouldn’t describe it as heavy. It had good pigmentation that applied evenly across my lips and smoothed out most of my lip lines. It lasted well for five hours and felt moisturizing while worn.

Lesley

Sydney Grace Lesley Lip Gloss ($10.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a deep, reddish-copper with moderate, warm undertones and a cream finish. It had nearly opaque color payoff in a single stroke, which adhered evenly and smoothly across my lips.

This was the best-performing shade in the formula that I tried as it was richly pigmented but applied evenly, smoothed out most of my lip lines, and was comfortable to wear. The consistency was thicker than the average gloss, though not heavy, with moderate tackiness. It lasted well for five hours and felt hydrating over time.
