Today’s review is on another liquid lipstick and this is from smashbox. Recently, they collaborated with Lily Singh aka superwomen ? . Yes, I am a big fan of her ? that was one reason I had to get it and that was the first shade, that I ordered and rest purchase I will blame on the beautiful formulation. The shade range is just insane, they offer nudes to pinks to reds and to edgy shades like grey.

My Experience with Smashbox Always On Liquid Lipstick Bawse:

Packaging: The packaging on these is quite unique, it is a rectangular clear container with satin black twist up cap. I love the applicator on these, it has a scooped centre that holds enough product to apply in a single dip, instead of dipping into the product again and again and the applicator has a pointed end that applies the lipstick precisely. The applicator distributes the product evenly on the lips

Texture: The shade bawse that lily Singh created is a beautiful blue based red. The red that will look stunning on all skin tones. The formula is outstanding. They feel super comfortable on the lips, compared to other liquid lipsticks. These are insanely pigmented and do not feather.

Generally liquid lipsticks have a tendency to crack in between but these don’t, which is a huge thumps up for me. These have a moussey texture, which goes on smoothly on the lips.

These offer matte finish to the lips. Smash box claims 8 hours of wear, I would say without drinking or eating they would last that long or even more but I saw slight transfer while drinking or eating, nothing major.

These are not the most transfer proof lipsticks but these are the most comfortable ones. These do not flake off, which is a good sign. These are buildable and doesn’t look Cakey. These feel very lightweight on the lips and doesn’t dry your lips out, which is the major problem with other liquid lipsticks.

• Doesn’t look cakey.
