First off, the color is absolutely gorgeous. It's a truly sophisticated and beautiful shade. The staying power was quite good on my lips too. Plus, it doesn't transfer much. While this is when I didn't apply lip balm underneath, I found it left the least marks on things when eating compared to other products I've tried.
It really emphasizes dead skin cells. That's why I had to knock off one star. You absolutely must exfoliate with a rich, hydrating lip balm that softens dead skin before applying this. If you don't, it'll bring out all the hidden flakes on your lips dramatically. You'll need to apply lip balm frequently with this.
