Maybelline Color Whisper -90 oh la lilac

Type: lipstick/butter   Price: $8.00   Size: 0.11oz
Pigmentation: 5/10 (its a butter so its not suppose to be very pigmented)
Packaging: 7.5/10
Buy again: Yes
Over all: 9/10
Pros:
Very beautiful creamy color and texture, i recommend for those wanting to try our lipstick but aren't super comfortable with it yet, good by itself or over colors, great everyday color, small tube with cute packaging.
Cons:
Lip butters wear off easily, a little over priced, smears and feathers.
Discussion:
Its a cute pinky purple color very light sweet and pretty. Lip colors like this are good for simple looks or looks that just need a little pop of color or shine on the lips. Like I said before, its a good ‘starter’ lipstick. My problem with lip butters is they wear off so easily.

E.L.F studio matte lip color- rich red

Type: Lipstick   Price: $3.00   Size: 1.6 g
Pigmentation: 9/10
Packaging: 7/10
Buy again: Yes
Over all: 7/10
Pros:
Great price, decent quality, good pigmentation, easy twist up pencil design, not drying, doesn't bleed.
Cons:
More of a cream then matte (though my other color from this line is matte), can smear easily, fades pretty quick but leaves a color still, packaging is cheapish and the letters have almost completely come off.
Discussion:
Over all its a good color, best for warm skin tones, I personally don’t like the color on myself though. Its more of a poppy red than it looks.

Wet N Wild silk finish lipstick -Black Orchid

Type: Lipstick   Price: $4.50   Size: 0.13oz
Pigmentation: 7/10
Packaging: 3/10
Buy again: Yes
Over all: 7/10
Pros:
Price, beautiful deep berry color, creamy texture, doesn't bring out the cracks in lips.
Cons:
Can stain the area around your lips, bleeds a bit, wipes off fairly easily, doesn't smell very good.
Discussion:
I really love this dark color, its a warm berry color and makes my lips look full. I prefer to wear a lipliner under it then put this in the center of my lips. Like most red lipsticks its a fullltime job making sure it looks good and stays looking good.

Cover girl- 360 euphoria

Type: lipstick   Size: ??   Price: $8.00
Pigmentation: 7.5/10
Packaging: 8/10
Buy again: no
Over all: 7/10
Pros:
I love the packaging, and i didn't experience too bad of bleeding. Its a pretty color, and the name is pretty
Cons:
The smell, taste, amount you get, i cannot find anywhere how much product there is… i feel the color isn't as deep or rich as the packaging makes it look.
Discussion:
Over all its an okay product i just hate the taste and smell, i expect such from very cheap low quality cosmetics. I wasn't overly excited for the color turn out. This is probably best for warm skin tones. I really do love the packaging, but the amount of product seems very little to me idk. The other thing was the wear time. 2 hours then touch up. It claims to be moisturizing but other than the fact its creamy i didn't find it moisturizing at all.

MAC- Dare You

Type: Cream lipstick  Size: 0.1oz  Price: $18.00
Pigmentation: 9/10
Packaging: 9/10
Buy Again: yes
Over All: 8/10
Pros:
Rich creamy texture, doesn't sit into the cracks of your lips, smells great, cute packaging.
Cons:
Does bleed, doesn't last very long, can smear.
Discussion:
Honestly, I love red lipsticks but I should have held off on this one. I prefer matte reds because they are easier to work with. Mac sometimes seems a little too hyped, so instead of spending the money on them I usually get dupes. Its pretty and all but not worth $18

Revlon- 663 Va Va Violet

Type: crème lipstick  Size: 0.13oz  Price: $8
Pigmentation: 7/10
Packaging: 8/10
Buy again: yes
Over all: 7/10
Pros:
Simple basic packaging, spf 15, fairly pigmented, doesn't bleed too badly. Is a dupe for macs cyber.
Cons:
Streaks and can ‘gunk’ up, having to touch it up.
Discussion:
Over all I like the color but i recommend muting the lips a bit with concealer/foundation first. Its not a very thick lipstick so you do need to go over it 2/3 times. With a lip brush i found it to end up pretty streaky, when you go to put some on it may take some off. I also recommend wearing a dark liner to define the shape you're wanting this on. Black, dark reds, or purples would look great for liners with this. Its a very dark berry color i find it rather daring and beautiful

NYX- 601 Castle lipstick

Type: Lipstick  Size: 0.14oz  Price: $6
Pigmentation: 7/10
Packaging: 7.25/10
Buy Again: not this color
Over all: 6/10
Pros:
Creamy and doesn't need more than 1 maybe 2 coats, its a unique color, i like the color is shown at the bottom of the tube, doesn't feather/bleed.
Cons:
The color

Discussion:
I thought it was going to be a light purple shimmer but its more of a silver lavender color almost metallic looking. Its a rather sheer color. Once i bought it and put it on i was caught off guard by the color. I have tried it with other colors but nothing seems to loom right. Its an interesting enough color but personally… i hate the color on me. It looks rather… muddy on my lips

Covergirl - Divine Lipstick


Type: Lipstick  Size: 0.13oz  Price: 
Pigmentation: 8.5/10
Packaging: 8/10
Buy again: yes
Over all: 8.5/10
Pros:
Beautiful color, doesn't feather or bleed, cute packaging, last a while without needing touch ups
Cons:
The taste and smell of cover girl lipsticks are awful. If you leave it on for a long period of time it can stain your lips a pink color. 
Discussion:
Its really too bad the smell and taste is disgusting, however this is one of my absolute favorite lipsticks, i feel like its the perfect medium purple lipstick, with a perfect balance of pink and blue. If you are interested in purple I highly recomend this color.

Hard Candy- Glamoflauge heavy duty concealer- Ultra Light and pencil concealer in light

Type: Concealer  Price: $6.00  Size: 0.72oz and 0.65g
Pigmentation: 9/10
Packaging: 6.5/10
Buy again: yes
Over all: 9/10
Pros:
Super pigmented, last forever, comes in super light shades, duo pack of cream and pencil, great price, lots of product, easy tube, little product goes a long way
Cons:
Very small pencil, pencil packaging sucks the lid wont stay on, a little hard to blend
Discussion:
Go buy it. Seriously i spur of the moment bought it and i was curious since i have some heavy duty bags under my eyes. In the pictures the eye on the left is the one with concealer. I don't have tattoos so im not sure how well it covers tats but its very good for hiding discoloration and imperfections. It does take a bit to blend but its super concentrated so you only need a tiny dab or two to do both eyes.

Obsessive compulsive cosmetics- lip tar trio pack- Black dahlia

Type: lip stain  price: $40  Size: 0.08oz
Pigmentation: 7/10
Packaging 7/10
Buy again: yes
Over all: 7.5/10
Pros:
The pack comes with 3 popular colors and a lip brush, dark beautiful dark red, good base for red lips
Cons:
Bleeds, needs multiple coats to not leave it streaky, sits in the cracks of your lips.
Discussion:
The trio pack is a great idea for those new to liptars, this pack came with NSFW, Black Dahlia, and Anime. Most liptars are much better than this specific one. You will need to exfoliate your lips and apply a thin balm before putting this one on. This one also seems like a thinner consistency than the others so it comes out streaky, bleeds, and doesn't last nearly as long as the others.
I love the color but the product itself left me a little sad. One other thing, i highly recommend walking in and buying a liptar, don't order it. I've seen many people who get theirs and it seems to have exploded during delivery. Word of caution.

Obsessive compulsive cosmetics lip tar trio- NSFW review

Type: lip stain  Price: $40  Size: 0.08oz

Pigmentation: 10/10
Packaging: 7/10
Buy again: yes
Over all: 8.5/10

Pros:
Super pigmented, great starter red lipstick and doesn't need too many touch ups, lasts a very long time, bright and vibrant and looks exactly how it does in the tube, small point tube top making it easier to control the amount

Cons:
It bleeds a bit, can stain area around the lips so be careful

Discussion:
If you are looking for a very bright vibrant solid red lip color check this one out. I personally don't wear this color often since i gravitate more towards the very dark reds, but if you are more into true reds this color is perfect. I also like using this color as a base for other lipsticks.

Wet N Wild- Mega last liquid lip color- Cherry On Top

Review
Type: liquid lipstick  Size: 0.23oz  Price: $4
Pigmentation: 9/10
Packaging: 8/10
Buy again: Yes
Over all: 6/10
Pros:
Easy application, don't need much product, super pigmented, last a long time, great price, doesn't bleed or smear, slightly metallic
Cons:
Very hard to get off, texture is awful.
Discussion:
Okay so i did a review of this product in another color previously and i hated it. I felt like trying another color to see if there was much of a difference, and there wasn't. Though i also tried different things to make it work.
First put on a clear lip chap/balm make it a strong one, then after taking the brush out of the tube wipe off almost all the gloss that is on the brush, line your lips first very slowly with it then fill. Keep your mouth open for a minute, DO NOT RUB THEM OR PRESS THEM TOGETHER it turns into a gunky mess. After its fully dry apply another couple coats of either a heavy gloss or balm.
The texture is very drying and feels weird but if you can learn to deal with it these lip colors are amazing.
If you put it on by itself and try and leave it, it will feel like you put acrylic paint on your lips…
Oh and some are a normal matte color, and others are slightly metallic.
