Great Fall Shades!
You might have seen a review on the the Wet n Wild Megaslicks Balm Stains back in the day but it wasn't the best review. I saw these gorgeous new shades on the New Halloween display and thought it was worth another try! These were only $2.99 at Walgreens, amazing price! They had a few other Limited Edition shades but these two were the ones that stood out the most.
The packaging is the same as the permanent line but this time around the cap actually stays on haha. That was one major issue when I first tried them so I'm very happy that the packaging is functional. Another thing that surprised me was the formula! The ones I first tried left my lips feeling so dry within an hour but it seems like they've been reformulated. Now, its the complete opposite! They go on so smooth and the formula is a lot creamier than before. It's actually in a sense too creamy to the point that one of the tips broke off .That was a sad moment! haha but I got over it. The colors are very beautiful and flattering + perfect for the fall. Here are some swatches:
Because they are so creamy they tend to transfer to everything which would be my only con. It's not the most long wearing lip product out there. They feel really nice on the lips and you only need one swipe to get the color intensity you see. So overall, they're great for days when you want some color but don't mind touching up every so often. Here are the lip swatches:
*2AM Call Time- a deep purple, gorgeous color! Wore it to work and had to reapply every 2 hours just to have the color show up as bright as you see in the picture. The stain it left was very faint.
*Senorita- a bright cherry red, another great color! Makes your lips look so juicy!
Bottom line: I really like these but I feel like the reapplying and maintenance might get annoying. The colors can be found within the same brand in a different formula like the new matte lipsticks I recently reviewed. If a matte lip isn't your thing than definitely pick these up because the colors are really gorgeous. I enjoy how this time around they feel really comfortable on the lips so they would also be great for the colder months so you can keep your lips hydrated in style! :-)
