 L-R: Sentimental (pearl), Romanesque (pearl), Paris Rose (cream), Delirium (pearl)

 Sentimental (frosty light shimmery pink, almost sheer)

 Romanesque (medium nude brown)

 Paris Rose (light coral)

Delirium (orange-red)

Pros:
  • pigmented
  • non-drying
  • creamy formula 
  • last a few hours
  • sleek packaging

Cons:
  • I didn't notice added volume 
  • expensive for a drugstore lipstick
  • not moisturizing enough if you have really dry lips (like me)

What I think:

I'm not a regular lipsticks wearer, but I must say I'm very impressed with these. All of the shades I tried go on creamy and last a good amount of time on the lips, and they only require one swipe on the lips to show their true color (except maybe Sentimental which is very sheer).

Altough they aren't moisturizing enough to completely eliminate the use of a lip balm, they don't dry my awfully dehydrated lips, which is an absolute must for me.

I didn't notice the claimed "added sexy volume" but it's no big deal for me as it's not what I'm looking for in a lipstick.

Available shades:

First row: Enchantment, Exuberance, Sensation, Provocative
Second row: Sincerity, Sentimental, Delight, Euphoria
Third row: Obsession, Revolution, Passion, Delirium
Fourth row: Romanesque, Amour, Jezebel, Feline
Fifth row: Cleopatra, Mauve Avant-Garde, Couture, Attitude

Recommend? yes
