Too Faced Melted Frosting Melted Liquified Long-Wear Lipstick
Too Faced Melted Frosting Melted Liquified Long-Wear Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.40 fl. oz.) is described as a “bubblegum pink.” It’s a bright, light pink with neutral-towarm undertones and a soft shine. This shade had more of a satin finish than the glossier finish of most shades in the formula. It had mostly opaque coverage, but the lighter color made “lines” more apparent if you pressed your lips together. It had a thinner consistency, too, which I think helped it apply more smoothly than it might have with the typical consistency. It wore well for five hours and was neither drying nor hydrating. Maybelline Bubblegum Bloom (965) (LE, $7.49) is lighter, less pigmented, cooler. Maybelline Hibiscus Pop (715) (P, $7.49) is darker. Maybelline Petal Pink (710) (P, $7.49) is darker, cooler.

MAC Ladies Who Lunch (LE, $22.00) is darker. MAC Sweet Experience (LE, $16.00) is darker, warmer. MAC Be Fabulous (P, $22.00) is lighter, more muted.

Too Faced Melted Sugar Melted Liquified Long-Wear Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.40 fl. oz.) is described as a “nude sand.” It’s a light, peachy-beige with warm undertones and a creamy, lightly glossy finish. It had mostly opaque color coverage, but it didn’t apply as smoothly or as evenly as the majority of this range. The wear was shorter, too, at five hours. It was a little drying after three hours. MAC Luxe Natural (P, $22.00) is darker, more muted. Maybelline Blushing Beige (915) (P, $7.49) is darker, more muted. MAC Crème d’Nude (P, $16.00) is more shimmery, darker, more muted. MAC Angel’s Kiss (LE, $16.00) is more muted. Kat Von D Agatha (P, $21.00) is cooler, less glossy. MAC Peach Beige (LE, $16.00) is lighter, cooler. MAC Strip Poker (LE, $16.00) is lighter, less glossy. MAC Riot House (LE, $16.00) is darker, warmer. MAC She’s a Peach (LE, $16.00) is darker, less glossy. MAC Romantic Breakdown (LE, $16.00) is more shimmery, more muted, less glossy. Maybelline Barely Bloomed (700) (P, $7.49) is darker, more muted, cooler. Tom Ford Beauty Beau (LE, $32.00) is darker.

Too Faced Melted Velvet Melted Liquified Long-Wear Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.40 fl. oz.) is described as a “bordeaux.” It’s a deepened, medium-dark red with subtle, warmer undertones and a glossy sheen. It had semi-opaque color payoff, but it at least applied evenly, which these deeper, less opaque reds often struggle with. It lasted for seven hours and left a stain behind, and it was a little drying after six hours of wear. Tom Ford Beauty Leonardo (LE, $32.00) is lighter, brighter, cooler. MAC Dangerously Chic (P, $23.00) is lighter. Estee Lauder Red Ego (P, $30.00) is lighter. Urban Decay Mrs. Mia Wallace (LE, $22.00) is brighter. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

I have Melted Velvet, love it!! It looks totally stunning on you
Thanks, Katherine! So glad you love yours!
Melted sugar is almost the color of your skin! That’s almost a true nude for you! 🙂
Nifty!
I love clean, pastel pinks, but Frosting just looks a little too . . . I don’t know. I can’t put my finger on it. It’s just not appealing to me whatsoever which is extremely surprising considering how many of the dupes for Frosting I’ve purchased over the years. It’s almost like it’s too white, maybe, or not white enough? It’s messing with my head!
I feel like Sugar could actually have been a unique and wearable color if they had kept some of the richer amber tones you see in raw sugar. The way it is now it would make anyone lighter than a MAC NC42 look like their lips had been surgically removed.
Velvet is the only one I actually like (not that it matters haha). It’s one of those reds that looks fairly common at first, but then you get a second look and you start to see the different tones that make it somewhat complex. Somehow it manages to be deep yet bright, and has a nice balance of burgundy with a hint of yellow and an even less conspicuous hint of brown.
Sorry for the long, rambling comment. Hope you’ve had a swell weekend!
Maybe it’s the glossy finish + brightness of Frosting that makes it appear off to you!
As another person who has lots of the dupes and loves them but was never too drawn by Frosting, I think for me it’s the brightness. It’s so bright it’s nearly neon or looks like it may glow under UV haha. Though it is a very pretty shade and I do like it on others.
I love all of these shades! I have Melted Peony and it just looks awful and gathers all funny on my lips after about 30 mins – such a shame. Hope these colours last longer though!
You may like the darker shades as they are more forgiving!
Thanks Christine – I have Strawberry and that stays on beautifully, must just be the paler ones then!
I like melted velvet. The other two shades are too light and dense looking. When I go for shades like that, I usually opt for sheerer coverage or I end up looking washed out.
They are starker shades to be sure – especially with this coverage level!
Ermahgurd! I need Velvet!
It’s gorgeous!
I love melted sugar for mixing with my other melted shades to lighten them up! It makes melted coral wearable for me 🙂
Ooh, nice! I’ll have to try that!
I bet you could make some interesting combos! Melted Frosting and Villain, etc!
That’s a great idea! I have sugar and frosting. Both look absurd on me. Thanks for the tip.:)
Great, hope you find a combo you like!
Velvet looks really gorgeous! I definitely get what you mean about most darker reds though. Frosting looks identical to a matte lipstick that I used to wear near constantly in the very late 80’s into the early 90’s, lol! Back then I rocked heavy blonde highlights and a spiral perms in my hair too! Hey, I thought I was bomb, and so did the not-so-DH, and my best friends!
It’s all about context! Cool back then — all that matters 😉
OH MY GOD. I need that Melted Sugar, its beautiful!
Enjoy it, Lolly!
I just Velvet yesterday. Sooo gorgeous. I can’t decide if I like Frosting and Sugar or not. I want to say Sugar is too light, but I’m so fair, and it’s got that hint of peachiness to it. Frosting is on the verge of being too white, but I’m not sure. I’d have to try them on.
I think you’ll love Velvet!
I adore Melted Velvet – it’s my go-to red because it wears for ages without being as drying as matte lipsticks. I find it’s also very versatile: apply one layer for a bright medium red, apply thicker for a darker wine shade.
I really love how comfortable the Melteds are to wear compared to typical matte/liquid lipsticks!
Melted Velvet is lovely and looks really good on you!
Thank you, Telesilla!
Not that I would get a lot of regular usage out of it, but I am LOVING Velvet. Seriously. I 100% love this shade of red and I think it’d look great on my own skin tone as well. I’ll try and hold off until at least we get a bit closer to fall when I wear shades like this more regularly. 😉 I have a few good reds in my stash, but this has been a hue I’ve been searching for ever since I saw reviews of an Ellis Faas shade that looks very similar. The nearest retailer for EF is a bit over 650 miles away so I’ve been hesitant to purchase without seeing it in person, whereas I can drive 12 minutes to be at Ulta and investigate this bad boy untill my heart’s content.
And hopefully there’s a sale between now and fall on them 😉
I love Velvet. Sugar and Frosting look ridiculous on me. I ordered them online based on swatches. I just cant pull it off. I will probably give them away if I can’t figure a a way to mix them with to tone them down some how.
They are really bright and light, so they can be harder to wear!
You look great in them! I think my 20 something self made that purchase! Lol..I never really thought to mix these until this review for some reason. I have all of the Melteds that are out as far as I know. Any suggestions?
Any of the fuchsias/reds, I think, would easily work with the lighter shade for lightening. My guess is that on some of the more neon and mid-tone shades that it may make it look bright but chalky to a degree (which I think can be worn, but my guess is that with how bright/light these are, you’d be better off mixing with the darker shades first).
Thanks Christine!
OMG, I need Velvet! It looks AMAZING on you! <3
Aw, thanks, Shipra!
I saw Velvet in a store and while I’m not usually a “red” girl, it was gorgeous.
Seems like a lot of people felt the same way when they swatched it 😀
I *need* the first two.
Enjoy, Rikki!
Melted Sugar looks like a pretty nude but I think it may be a tad too pale for me. Melted Velvet looks gorgeous though and I don’t even like reds that much. The color looks really good on you!
It may be on the light side, I think!
I really want Melted Sugar but I’m crossing my fingers it will be part of a holiday set this year. lol
Let’s hope so!
These particular shades aren’t for me but boy am I loving the finish of them!
The finish is nice!
Melted Velvet looks stunning on you! I need to check it out the next time I’m at Sephora 😀
Thanks, Ayesha!
Melted Velvet and Melted Sugar both look right up my street! I Being paper white Melted Sugar should look OK on me I think but I would need to try it first. Not that I need either of them but I can peruse the new Melted lipsticks anyway, right? 😛
lol! Paper white, eh? 🙂
Melted Velvet is lovely!
Glad ya liked it, Erin!
