Liquid lipsticks have been one of the biggest trends emerging over the past year or so, but I wanted to put some of the cheaper brands versions to the test! I decided to start with MUA, as they are so affordable.
From top to bottom we have Dare, Halcyon and Kooky.
There are quite a few things that I look for when trying out a new liquid lipstick. The first being the colour - obviously. I have to say the bottom two are two of my favourite colours. Kooky is awesome for a night out as it is the perfect party purple. Halcyon is a gorgeous nude for everyday. The only one I'm not in love with is Dare. I just think it's too pink for my liking, I never really wear brightly coloured pinks on my lips. I just don't think I'm bold enough!
Another thing I look for is comfort. If you're going to be wearing a product on your lips all day, you want it to be comfortable, am I right? This lets the product down. At first, the lipstick was uber comfy and I had no problems. I was buzzing. Not only were there lovely colours but they were dead cheap, does it get much better? But after about an hour the cracks were beginning to show, literally. The lipstick was cracking all over! Not good.
The last thing is the smell. Sometimes liquid lipsticks can have an overly potent smell, and it's not something I enjoy. These however are practically odourless so that's definitely in their favour.
All in all, if you're looking for a liquid lipstick just for a night out, these are great! But if you're wanting an all day colour, I'd suggest investing a little bit more money on a higher quality product.
