Formula Overview
$38.00/0.11 oz. - $345.45 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to be "deeply hydrating" and "melt" onto the lips with a "pop of color" and give long-term hydration. It is described as having "medium coverage" and "irreverent shine." The color coverage was typically medium, as described, though some of the deeper shades were more buildable to semi-opaque coverage.
They're a very, very creamy, emollient formula; they slip-slide as they melt against the lips during application, and it feels luxurious to apply but can be easily over-applied. It's just the type of texture that lends itself to over-application without adding more coverage, so I recommend being mindful in order to ensure you'll get plenty of usage out of each tube. Fortunately, once on, they don't feel thick or overly slippery, so it doesn't feel like the lipstick is constantly moving while worn.
They have a high-shine, almost glossy, finish that often smoothed out my lip lines without settling into them, and the latter made it more impressive due to the amount of color and slip. The wear time varied from shade to shade but typically landed between three and five hours. Some shades leave a faint stain behind--usually the mid-tone and darker hues. The formula has a sweet, mango scent but no discernible taste.

I think you forgot to add the description of the first (163) color.
Fixed!
Even though these are more sheer and balmy, I really love the 2 warmer shades: Pulsing Rosehip and Rosewood Beat!
Yet, I’ll probably hold off on these until I see your reviews of the Makeup By Mario Moisture Glow Plumping Lip Color (which very ODDLY has nothing in its formula that plumps lips, LOL).
Is it the makeup fashion at the moment to have these sheer lipsticks? These remind me of Pat’s latest Satin Allures, which I have criticized for looking under pigmented and too sheer. Maybe I am mistaking the trend.
But they do look incredibly sheer, even when compared with their dupes. I think I would want something more solid for my money that these that would look like they could slip off my lips in a heartbeat.
