MAKI YIKA Orange Lipstick for Women Color Stay Long Lasting Lipsticks, No Smudge Matte Liquid Lipstick Transferproof Cruelty-Free Lip Color, Orange Red

This lipstick feels so good. It feels better than other Matte lipsticks I have used, and it goes on smooth. I like the color but it’s a little lighter than the picture. It stays on well even after eating.

Let me start by saying I did my research thoroughly, but the color I received was nothing like what I thought I was getting. That said... What I wanted was a deep matte red that I have been seeing much of Hollywood wearing these days. What I got, was a tomato-y red on the orange side, the color you see Tina Turner wear. Still I gave it a try.I noticed as I was putting it on, it went on rather sheer, and I could see my lip color through the first layer, and found myself layering it on so many times, that eventually, I stopped focusing on my lips and put all my attention on helping my child learn how to drive.When I thought about it again, I looked in the mirror and to my astonishment.... this lipstick was a BEAUTIFUL DEEP ORANGE RED, which does go with my undertones (another reason I didn't make too much of a fuss), and was so smooth with no lines and wrinkles. The best part about this lippie, is that it was not tacky on the lips, when I did the M test, my lips didn't stick together!!! It stayed put the rest of the evening, and none came off in the center where my lips meet. Sorry, I did not do a water bottle/ napkin test. It did not crumble and dry out on my lips. Taking it off with liquid soap didn't really help, and using my usual coconut oil, there was still a little left on.If there was a sent, it was so unimportant and didn't stand out, that I do not remember if there even was a scent or not. This one did it's job, ladies!!! And rather superbly, at that ( and I never use that word...lol). I am looking very forward to other colors

I’m not sure this is worth 4 stars, but I can see that someone else might think of it as 4 or even 5 star, if it didn’t have the extra hype about all the great qualities that it doesn’t really have. I think 3 is more appropriate for my use tbh.I purchased the color “party go,” but the color I received was more like “trust you” or even “MVP Red,” so it’s wayyyyy too red for my taste. Someone who really appreciates a very bold, very red lip might like this (so that’s why I’m giving it one more star than it deserves for my use of it), but I am more subtle than that. I want my lip to look good but natural or nearly-natural, not like I’m trying too hard to be noticed. I don’t really wear any other makeup, so bold red-red lip is too much “pick me” for my taste.It’s a liquid color, so not remotely matte (although it does dry and isn’t super shiny, so maybe?), not “waterproof,” not remotely non-smudging (it even came off on the tissue I used to blow my nose, which had barely grazed my lip). And it’s definitely not “long-lasting.” Any lipstick can last “up to 16 hours” if you’re not going to eat or drink anything. But that definition doesn’t really cover this. It’s just wet lipstick that dries. It’s not bad, I think, but not as extraordinary as the advertising implies. (Gotta say that the lip model in the pics is a good choice; I’d love to have those lips, so I probably succombed to the idea that my lips would look that lucious. Spoiler: they didn’t. They just looked TOO red, too “pick me.” To be fair, it didn’t look bad, even though it was redder than the picture. it’s just not my ideal color and not what I thought I was purchasing.The price pretty good (I purchased it with a discount that doesn’t seem to be offered anymore). And maybe if I put another color over it (adding “dinner time maybe?”) the color might be more what I was after, dark, brownish-red, but a little toned down. Something that could pass as natural. But do I want to buy two colors to MAYBE get what I was hoping for?Positives: The color is very rich, with good coverage. Not wishy-washy. The case is weirdly appealing—which doesn’t help the color, I know, but it FEELS nice. It also comes with a little brush, which I’m gonna guess would help to outline the lip first, since the applicator is pretty blunt otherwise.I’m torn about trying another color with this. I might do it if the price were lower. Otherwise I’ll end up with TWO lip colors I won’t use.Bottom line: not bad, but “Party go” is much more red than it looks in the picture.

This lip gloss goes on pretty. Not so Shiney but it's there. Nice wear. I gave it 3 stars because it leaked and it was a sticky mess. Otherwise I did like it. It wasn't old. I only had it for maybe 2 months. It was a waste of my money. I don't like that!! PS. I did not have this all crazy in my purse. I stood it up in a pocket. Took it out when I got home to use it. It just leaked out. I hate that

When they say no budge, they mean it. You better nail that when you put it on because it doesn't want to come off to redo. It's a glass 1/2 empty - 1/2 full pov depending on how big of a hurry you're in hahaPretty color. Really love it

It's true it doesn't come off but it dries your lips, I use it as a base and put the Mac or marc Jacobs on top then outline with a brown pencil. Those are my creamiest lipsticks so the dryness goes away. Make sure you use some lip moisturizer after you take it off because my lip skin started becoming visible after wearing back to back so keep that in mind.

Definitely not long lasting nor smudge proof as described. I've been using only long lasting lipsticks for over 24yrs. The color is beautiful but that's all.

Looks great in the beginning, dry out quicklyBy mid day start feathering into the lips , loosing colorReally need to be maintained
