As you guys already know, it was my birthday lately, and I went on a hunt for a long lasting lip product since touching up my lipstick is really annoying.
After spending not so long searching, I found this baby

Number 542
I'm absolutely in love with red lipsticks, so red lips were a must have for my party. This product (I don't really know how to call it... Lipgloss? Lipstick? Nevermind) was recommended by an amazing friend which had the exact same color. Once I saw it, I knew I had to have it. But after she told me how wonderful it was, I was totally obsessed.
When I finally got it, I was not disapointed at all. I switched it on my hand and it literally lasted about 4 days (even though I basically tried to scrape it off with tons of soap once I got home).
Anyway, I think I should start describing the actual color more in depth
As you can see (because even though, colors always vary in pictures, you can appreciate it really well) it's a gorgeous deep red shade. I love that it's so pigmented and intense! It's the perfect color if you want to dress it up a little, for a more formal or special occasion

I don't think you can actually tell, but I kinda messed up some bits, and that's the worst part. Since it's super duper long lasting, once you mess up, you're screwed unless you're really fast and manage to remove it before it dries.
I think I forgot to mention how it works! Well, as you've seen, it has like two sides. The first one is the actual lipgloss, which you just pop (carefully) on your lips and wait till it's dry. The second one is a balm that will keep your lips from drying and the color from creasing.
Since it stays put all night once it dries, it's a very drying product, so the only thing you might have to touch up is the balm.

To be quite honest, I'd never tried a 24 hour lipstick/lipgloss because I've never really believed these babies could last so long, so this was just some kind of experiment. But I have to say I am now a believer. These things do last all night long, so make sure you own some kind of makeup remover unless you want to wake up still with this on! The only part that kind of goes away is the part of the lips that's closer to the inside of your mouth, because of the salivation. So if you're going to be eating, you'll probably have to touch up that bit, but the rest will still be flawless

I had to do it on the back of my hand because I had some switches on the other side, so maybe the colors got mixed. But yeah, the thing is there's not one single stain, which is pretty awesome
I might sound quite childish reacting so surprised to a 24 hour lipgloss, probably all of them work like that. But oh well :P
