DD talked me into trying these a while back. I was skeptical, but I got one to try. It was OK. I wore it once. She said I had to use it every day, and I would see a big difference in my lips, plus the staying power is great.

So I ordered four colors, and committed to keeping with it. It has been over a week, and I haven't worn anything else - which is very hard for this fickle girl who changes colors and brands all of the time!

OK - these are AMAZING! I can't believe how they stay on. The first time I applied one, my lips tingled a little, but nothing that really bothered me.

So I put one coat on very dry lips, being careful to follow the lines of my lips. (The introductory kit does come with an "eraser," but I haven't had to use it yet.)  You cannot press your lips together. I wait about 20 seconds, then apply a 2nd coat. Wait 20 seconds and apply the third coat. Finally wait about 20 seconds and apply the gloss (that comes with the introductory kit) You can put a kleenex to your lips and nothing comes off. They stay on! If I refresh at all, or if my lips are feeling a tad dry, I use the gloss - maybe once or twice a day.

Today I wore one of the richer colors. After I ate lunch I looked in a mirror. My lips were perfect. I used a straw at dinner; no lipstick mark on my straw. This late at night, and my lips look like they did this morning. I did not use the gloss to refresh at all today. 

I have a lot of pretty colors from a lot of lines. Mally is one of my favorites - the High Shine ones. But I always have to reapply throughout the day. And inevitably if I reapply my color and take a drink, I leave the dreaded lip imprint on the glass (especially when I'm out with friends). 

With this line I don't have to worry about any of that.

Right now it's kind of a home-based business. DD orders from her college friend, who posts the colors on Facebook. But I wish I could see them in person.

QVC should look into this line. They have a bunch of colors, and I think they would be popular here!

@beach-mom,    Is it creamy or matte?  I love both but I want moisture too. The purpose is to not have to reapply your lip color?  I actually do not mind reapplying.  Years ago I tried a long lasting lipstick which dried my lips (never again).  I exfoliate my lips once a week and they are in excellent condition.  Interesting concept painting lip color on but I need to know all the details.

@Katcat1 - They have both. I tried a long lasting lipcolor too a while back, Chanel - which was discontinued. My lips don't get dry at all, but they have very seldom felt dry in the past. There were a few times in winter when they would get chapped, and I used High Shine instead of Chapstick (until I discovered Fresh sugar lip balms). It's a very different system, but I'm very happy with it. The colors are beautiful and there are a lot!

I am 64, never in my life been an everyday lipstick gal. A friend of mine started selling & invited me to her Facebook Lipsense group. I had been wanting to try some color, since my hair is now gray & I looked washed out. I decided to give it a try. The few times I hd tried lipstick in the past, it was off in no time. Lipsense STAYS put, with no re-apply needed!! The 1st color I got was almost a nude, so of course I came back for more. I now have 4 colors & love it. They only thing that HAS taken it off (other than the "oops" remover, is the AP24 whitening toothpaste,lol..... I am very impressed!!

To OP: I don't think QVC would ever sell, it is more like a homebased item.

I have a friend who sells these -- the colors are very pretty. My concern is that one of the main ingredients is SD alcohol, which the Paula's Choice Ingriedient Dictionary calls "drying" and "sensitizing" and states it "immediately harm(s) the skin, starting a chain reaction of damage."

I LOVE THESE!  I have bought from individual women I know, but also buy LipSense from Amazon.  My favorite color is Mojave.

I'm so glad to hear the positive reviews as I just ordered this week and mine will be here Monday!  Can't wait to try it!  😊

I would love to see the Q bring this line in. The salon where I go had several women the other day raving about this line. One girl had one on. It was a very dark plum and she looked beautiful in it. It seriously lasted she said through eating and drinking. My daughter who is a nude girl had one a few weeks ago when she came to visit. We went to dinner and it was still on after dinner. Plus they aren't drying. I googled the line and they have colors for everyone's taste.

I'm so glad to see others like these! 

@TX-starlight - I have 4 colors too, mostly neutrals. Today I'm wearing Honey Rose. I also have Heartbreaker (my standard "your lips but better"), Luv It, and Redwood. Next time I'm going to be a little braver when I order!

@tobe - Mojave looks like a nice color. I'm fair to light with blonde hair and warm coloring. Do you think this would work for me?

@BExplorer - Let us know what you think when you get yours. I'm so excited for you! Be sure to tell us what colors you get and whether or not you like them. One reason I did take a chance in the first place is the satisfaction guarantee they offer. DD said if I don't like it, her friend who sells them will replace it with another one. 

@Tricolor - You'll have to try them!

@DCAnnie2004 - That ingredient might be why they stay on. IDK. I did google the safety of these, and they are not tested on animals and the ingredients in them are approved by the FDA.

@beach-mom I only ordered Fire and Ice in addition to glossy gloss and oops.  I am a redhead (enough said about my coloring, right?! ) so it's challenging to find colors that look good on me.  That being said, the 100% satisfaction guarantee is why I decided to give it a try.  If I love the performance I will certainly order additional colors.  😊
