Smashbox Liquid Lipstick in Out Loud

New Smashbox Always On Liquid Lipstick retails for $24, and contains 0.13fl.oz product. You can purchase this at Sephora, Smashbox.com, Macys, and maybe Ulta as well. 

What it is: 
An eight-hour wear, liquid-matte lipstick with a featherweight, comfortable formula that stays put and keeps color looking as fresh and flawless as the first swipe. 

What it does: 
Perfected on-set in Smashbox’s L.A. photo studio, Always On Matte Liquid Lipstick leaves lips with ultra-lightweight, but bold color. This liquid-matte formula is infused with the lip-smoothing Smashbox Primer Oil complex for suede-soft lip color in an array of gorgeous, highly pigmented shades. The precision tip applicator lines and fills with one swipe of the no-drop reservoir, while Advanced Polymer Technology makes lip color stay put and look fresh and flawless for up to eight hours for smudge-proof, budge-proof, and non-feathering, carefree wear. 

What it is formulated WITHOUT: 
- Parabens 
- Sulfates 
- Phthalates 

What else you need to know: 
Bawse is a collaboration between famed YouTube megastar Lilly Singh and Smashbox. Singh inspires us to be our most empowered, beautiful selves. Smashbox embodied her bold spirit into every swipe of her signature matte red shade. 

Studio tip: "With a bold lip, a lighter lip line makes your pout appear fuller. Use Smashbox BB Cream Eyes to line around the edges and cupid’s bow for a precise pop or quick touch-up."—Lori Taylor Davis, Global Pro Lead Artist

At least it's not 24 hours claim, so I'm ok with the honest 8-hour long wearing time. It actually can last longer if you don't eat too much oily food. I've sat through a dinner at my friend's eating rice and beans, avocado slices, and fried chicken. Most of the lip color still remained except for the center parts of my lips. 

It's pretty much as it claims as an always on liquid lipstick, well, at least majority of the time:)

I'm not a fan of any type of twistable packaging that's in a rectangular/square shape because it kind of hurts my hand/fingers as I twist open it. Aside from that, this packaging is quite straightforward and sleek. I like the matte black finish on the cap. The clear and thick acrylic bottom portion allows you to see the color of the product right off the bat. 

I love this applicator! It's diamond shaped with a point end so it provides great precision. The little hole in the middle collects just enough product for you to apply all over your lips without double dip into the container. We all know the rule about double dipping, right? :DDD The applicator is also soft and has a little bit flexibility in it so you have good control while using it. 

This is a gorgeous burnt orange color! It has a hint of brown in it which makes it very unique and different from all the other burnt orange colors I have in my collection. I will have a separate blog dedicate to all of my burnt orange colored lipsticks/liquid lipsticks. That way, you can kind of see the different tones in each one of them, but this is by far my favorite one!

After this dried down, it became completely matte, but not 100% transfer-proof. You will see this transfer onto food and cups. Very minimum transfer though!

I absolutely love this color, and will pick up more shades once Smashbox has some kind of sale:D They are pretty pricey, you know. I posted this on my instagram as one of the month long #selfiewithlipswatch project, and a lot of people loved it. My childhood friend even commented about how it's very flattering on me. I love this kind of burnt orange shade, and this one in particular just looks very nice on me:) But, I think this kind of color looks awesome on everyone!

After I ate lunch, and color still remained. The worn part wasn't super noticeable so that's nice.

After eating, most color remained, but only wore off a little bit in the center of the lips. However, the dry and flaky parts of my lips were more noticeable. My lips didn't feel super dry, but not hydrated, either. I didn't feel the need of licking my lips or anything, but it's not as super comfortable as I initially applied it.
