I am a huge fan of drugstore beauty products and without a doubt, Wet 'n Wild is my favorite drugstore brand of them all. I love their staple products as well as their limited edition items! I particularly get tickled when I happen to visit my nearest Walgreens and see a new item that I didn't know about. This is exactly what happened to me a few months ago. I ran in to get a few items and stumbled upon the Fergie Vicious Varnish High Shine Lip Stains.
Although I am not a huge fan of lip glosses, the idea of a shiny lip stain automatically intrigued me. I decided to give them a try and I was surprised by the results. Let's hop into the review...
Pros
- Affordable ($3.49)
- Long Lasting

My Thoughts
Although some people are not fans of these lip stains, I love them! They are amazing! Not only are they super pigmented, they are long lasting. The key with these lip stains are to not press your lips together. When it comes to glosses, we're so used to pressing our lips together once we apply. If you do that with these, you will have a sticky, globby mess!
Tip on Application: When applying, I apply two to three layers on each lip and let dry without pressing my lips together. Perfection!
The only issue I have with this product is the actual brush. The brush is very flexible, which can be a good thing, but it also makes it hard to control. You may end up getting product below or above your lip when applying. Because of this, it's not one of those lip products you can really apply without looking in a mirror.
Other than the brush, I love these. I can apply it and it will last even through eating and drinking. Although if you eat a heavier meal, you may have to reapply.

Would I Recommend?
YES! These are perfect for those who need long lasting lip color. Plus, who can beat that amazing color pay off for $3.49?

ReplyDeletei tried them, but after an hour or less of wear I got something weird/flaky/gumminess on my lips, especially in the corners. ..also, i left one in my coat pocket and somehow there was all this leakage. ugh....they are so pretty though! Thanks for your swatches and great review!
