Review: Essence Home Sweet Home LE Longlasting Lipstick 01 Red-y To Relax

Hey there!

Today I want to review one of the lipsticks from Essence's Home Sweet Home LE!

Information:

• Essence Longlasting Lipstick 01 Red-y To Relax
• part of the Home Sweet Home LE, November 2012
• blue-toned red color
• costs 2,25 Euros

Positives:

• price
• very opaque color
• pretty holiday shade
• easy to apply
• fruity scent
• feels soft on the lips
• it doesn't dry out your lips
• it lasts when you drink something
• wear is really good when not eating
• doesn't accentuate dry spots
• it fades gradually when wearing for a long time

Negatives:

• it's limited
• it doesn't last when you eat something
• you might not like the scent
• you can't tone it down, it's very bright with the first layer
• you'd most likely need a lip liner for a more precise application

After all, I really like this lipstick! It has the typical downsides like most dark/bright lipsticks have, but in general I'm really happy with it! The pigmentation is really good, and I'm sure I'll wear it a lot during the holiday season :) 

What do you think of it?
