Too Faced Mrs. Roper Melted Matte Liquid Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.23 fl. oz.) is described as a “matte bright tangerine.” It’s a bright, neon, medium orange with warm, yellow undertones and a matte finish. It had great color payoff with a thin consistency that applied evenly without issue, but once it dried down, the color separated and made the lips look “cracked” whenever I smiled or widened my mouth at all. There’s something about the dry down of this formula that just seems to sit poorly on my lips; I usually only have major issues with the color separating at dry down with lighter shades, if I do. The color lasted for five hours and started to flake off, and this one was quite drying. Urban Decay Crash (DC, $18.00) is glossier (95% similar). ColourPop Felix (P, $7.00) is lighter (95% similar).

Too Faced Naughty by Nature Melted Matte Liquid Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.23 fl. oz.) is described as a “matte deep chocolate.” It’s a dark brown with warm undertones and a satin finish. This shade never quite dried down; it was lightly tacky but pressing my lips together didn’t lift color, so that was a happy surprise! It had rich pigmentation and applied evenly. It emphasized lip lines but didn’t look as “cracked” when I smiled as other shades. It’s not ideal, but it was one of the easier shades to wear over time. The formula was moderately drying over the five hours it lasted. ColourPop Limbo (P, $6.50) is warmer (95% similar). NYX Maison (P, $6.00) is lighter, glossier (95% similar). Tarte Wannabe (P, $20.00) is cooler (90% similar). Anastasia Bittersweet (LE, $20.00) is cooler (90% similar). Fenty Beauty Unveil (P, $24.00) is darker, cooler (90% similar).

FORMULA OVERVIEW | Too Faced Melted Matte Liquid Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.23 fl. oz.) is supposed to apply l ike a gloss but dry to “an ultra-matte, opaque finish” that is “never dry, shriveled, or cracked” that should “last for hours.” Most of the shades are unforgiving once they dry down and emphasize lip lines, look “cracked” if you smile, though they feel lighter-weight than they look. It’s one of the more unflattering liquid lipsticks I have tried as many shades highlighted lip lines, and while the lipstick itself wasn’t extremely clingy, there was a dryness present there that, at times, made my lips tingle/ache. For me, the wear was between four and six hours, as a lot of the shades faded unevenly and were faster to breakdown than the average liquid lipstick. The formula is thin, more water-like (reminded me of ColourPop’s formula but sometimes thinner) with a fairly quick dry-down time.

Ah ok I guess that makes more sense. I still think it’s hilarious to name a lipstick after a 70s tv character! (I loved Three’s Company as a kid!)

Amanda Avatar

Is the name not Mrs. Roper? I was super excited for this shade – Three’s Company was a fave of mine growing up and Audra Lindley was faaaaaabulous as Mrs. Roper. But this shade is pretty similar to my beloved A-Go-Go. What to do?!

A very tiny forgivable error. The keyboards on my pad and Android are getting strange and old. They often change words or letters for me.
You are great, Christine. Don’t beat yourself up.

I find matte lip color so unflattering on myself. I can pull off a semi-matte with no issue. I really love the shades and the packaging.

Susan Dowman Nevling Avatar

Amazing how opaque these are. Look good on the lips but neither are “my color”. I also make meds that are incredibly drying so avoid lip products that aggravate that.

Cathy Avatar

Both of these colours are fabulous, IMO 🙂 Mrs. Roper is hella bright, though! Not sure if I could pull it off, but if Mrs. Roper could, I guess I could too lol (I’m probably older than she was on the show, after all). Naughty by Nature is gorgeous, too; the perfect ’90’s matte brown lip. It looks great on you, Christine!

I’m so curious to see how Naughty by Nature compares to True Brown K from the Kylie lip kits. I feel like it’s a really close dupe, but I don’t own the Kylie lip kit, so I can’t tell for sure.
