True confession time: I never used to wear makeup. Then I started wearing makeup, but I pretty much always skipped on the lipstick. Why? Because I didn’t like the bother of reapplying it all day long. I’m sure you’ve heard about LipSense by now, and if you’re like me, you may be curious how long this long-lasting lipstick lasts for. So when my new friend Jenni offered me a LipSense starter kit to test it out, I was quick to agree!
Because I’m not used to wearing lipstick, I wanted to go for a subtle color that basically matched my natural lip color. I chose a color called “Apple Cider,” which is a light pink color. Jenni sent me a starter kit, which consists of your lipstick, a gloss, and an oops remover.
Once I received my kit, I was excited to get started. I decided to take photos of myself showing how the lipstick lasted throughout the day.
Just wearing the lipstick before I applied the gloss. I did notice that the lipstick stings a bit when you put it on, and it tastes bitter, but it was not enough that I would not use it.
This is the gloss and how the lipstick looked when first applied. I love how it feels, I love the shine, and I loved the subtle sweet taste and smell – which helped with the lipstick’s bitter taste.
This is a bit later, after I ate lunch. The gloss wore off, but the color did not.
Again, later in the afternoon.
That evening – you may not be able to tell because of the color I chose, but my lips are still pink!
I did not reapply the gloss during the day because I wanted to see how the color lasted without reapplying. Of course, it is meant to be worn with the gloss and if I was going out or seeing anyone, I would have done so!
My conclusion: The color lasts all day long, for real. I definitely will use this lipstick! I want to get a slightly darker, more obvious color as well! How about you?
