Too Faced Melted Liquified Long Wear Lipsticks Review


Too Faced recently released these lipsticks in 6 different colors. It claims that these lispticks have the "staying power of a stain, the intense color of a liquids lipstick and the high shine of a gloss."

List of Colors

These come in 6 beautiful shades, which are great for spring/summer:

Melted Peony - dusty rose
Melted Nude - neutral nude
  
Melted Coral - creamy coral
Melted Violet - violet orchid
Melted Fuchsia - hot pink
Melted Ruby - blood red


Colors: Peony (left), Nude, Coral, Violet, Blood Red, Hot Pink

UPDATE - 4 new shades:

Melted Fig


Melted Candy


Melted Berry


Melted Marshmallow

I'm in LOVE with these lipsticks! I was so thrilled to find these at my local Sephora store during the chic week sale. I got Melted Violet at first but then went back next day to get two other colors: Melted Fuchsia and Melted Ruby

Price

Each lisptick retails for $25 CAD ($21 USD). I got mine during this year's Sephora Chic Week Sale and paid about $24 each (taxes included).

Packaging




The lipsticks come in squeeze tubes with a precise applicator, which allows an easier application. It gives you more control in terms of how much product you want to apply on your lips but if you squeeze too hard then it will feather down your lips.

Review

Pigmented
It only offers 6 colors but I personally like all of them. They are so pigmented! I purchased only three because I didn't want to spend too much on lip products. I am planning on buying Melted Nude in the upcoming months.
Easy to Apply
I'm personally not a huge fan of squeeze tubes because if you squeeze hard, a lot of product may come out and it feathers down your lips. However, the applicator does give you more control compared to other lip products that come in squeeze tubes.  
A little messy
They are easy to apply but can be a little messy. When I first applied it on, it would go on all over my teeth. However, I tried it again but I waited about a minute to let it settle on my lips and it did the trick. 

Creamy & Moisturizing
I like how it's so creamy that my lips feel so smooth after I have these on. I also love how moisturizing they are. My lips become so dry when I apply lipsticks alone, so I normally apply lipgloss on top to keep them moisturized. However, I don't need to do that with these. It's not that glossy but I honestly don't mind. I'm just happy they aren't drying.

Long wearing
The pigmentation and shine start fading away but they certainly do stain. The color becomes much lighter and lasts for few hours before completely wearing off.

If you're in the U.S. then you should be able to get it from stores other than Sephora. You can visit Too Faced website to find a store near you.
