Honest Beauty Lipstick Hydrating synthetic Reviews Summary

Color Accuracy

Pros:

• "Color is nice and very accurate to pictured."
• "The color was pretty accurate from the “try-on” ability, it stays on and isn’t drying."
• "The color I received has a pinkish tone and compliments skin tone nicely."

Cons:

• "Color was not as shown on internet. I thought it was going to have some mauve in it but it very brown on me."
• "The color of Forever is very different than what is shown in the product pictures."
• "The virtual try color looked NOTHING like what I got."
• "This is the shade “Off Duty” which is very peach in person, & not peach at all in the product photos."

Texture & Application

Pros:

• "This is my favorite lipstick. Easy to apply and it's creamy."
• "The liquid formula goes on smoothly and evenly with a doe's foot applicator."
• "It goes on smooth and looks and feels like any other matte lipstick."

Cons:

• "I found 1 coat didn't cover fully and when I added a 2nd it got cakey and left my lips textured but not in a good way."
• "Product did not glide on lips easily, nor in a consistent manner."
• "It looked patchy and caked up, especially towards the inside of my lips."
• "This lipstick is drying when it dries down."

Scent & Taste

Pros:

• "I love the color of this liquid lipstick (Forever) and really am happy about the fact that it has no scent and no taste."

Cons:

• "This smells bad, the color for brown skin women absolutely does not work unless you want to look like a sambo character."
• "This one however smelled like lipstick when it gets old. It had no fragrance just a bad clay-like smell."
• "The product smells rancid first of all."
• "Plus it tastes very strongly of crayons."
• "The gloss smells and tastes terrible--like rancid oil."

Hydration & Feel

Pros:

• "While I did find this liquid lipstick less drying than others I’ve tried, I would not describe it as hydrating."
• "This is a very nice liquid lipstick that feels nice on my lips and it is definitely not drying."
• "Another HUGE plus is that it didn’t dry my lips out at all - unlike other long-lasting liquid lipsticks."

Cons:

• "It's advertised as a 'hydrating' lip color, but every time I use it, it dries my lips out."
• "Shortly after application, my lips feel dry and tight."
• "Very matte, I don't know how this is hydrating at all. It makes my lips feel terribly dry."
• "Like most other all-day lipsticks, it made my lips start to feel dry and like I needed to apply chapstick pretty soon after application."

Longevity & Wear

Pros:

• "I love that the lipstick lasts for a long time."
• "Color that lasts for HOURS - literally. I put some one around 4pm, and woke up the next morning with some hint of color still remaining."
• "It does stay on for an extended period of time."

Cons:

• "You will be reapplying this several times a day if you want it for all day use."
• "It doesn't last very long."
• "All day wear without reapplying? No. It will move around."
• "The durability of this color continues to wear over the course of the day; it did not last through eating/drinking or any other activities."

Health & Safety

Pros:

• "Overall I do love it, especially knowing it's vegan and cruelty-free."
• "It is also free of many harsh chemicals and cruelty free which is a huge plus."

Cons:

• "This product had a rancid poisonous taste. I don’t know if someone sold me a product that had expired but I almost threw up after tasting it on my lips."
• "Harmful ingredients (Red 4, Red Lake 7, Yellow 6 Lake)… do some research before emptying your pockets to this 'natural and honest' makeup."
• "This company is using the name 'Honest Beuaty' to trick buyers into thinking it is the actual company 'Honest' which doesn't use harmful ingredients."
