Customer Reviews
Glossy & silky
I wear lipstick all day, every day. This is a great line of neutral, sheer lipsticks. If you read the previous review, you should know that benefit has three color ranges for this line--light neutral, medium neutral and deep neutral. The light neutral line contains just a hint of color. Light colors are skinny dip, my treat, jing-a-ling, hug it out, candy store, sugar cookie, make nice and satin snap. The medium neutral colors are still sheer, but have more buildable color. They include: rocket pop, born ready, good-to-go, swonderful, fruit cocktail, sugar rush and raisin' cane. Deep lipsticks are more noticeable and the line I prefer. Try frenched, hold it!, dessert first (a gorgeous light red), ms. behavin, liar lips, ruby vibes, breathless & guilt free.
kinda disappointed
I finally got this lipstick in 'jing-a-ling' after looking everywhere for this color (this shade is sold out in many places). I was so happy to find this perfect pink color. It glides on very smooth, shiny and moisturizing at first, but I was quite disappointed after using this lipstick a few times. Its only moisturizing and shiny in the first 20 minutes or so (perhaps 30 minutes the most), after that it feels dry and color doesn't stay. When you re-apply or try to built the color on top, makes my lips chappy and dry, and the texture is very un-even as you try to built on it. I still love the color though but now I hardly use this lipstick. My favorite lipstick now is Smashbox in 'charming'.
Frenched by beneFit
I have this in "Frenched". The color is more of a true-red than the pinkish color pictured on amazon.
I really like that this is the silkiest lipstick I have ever tried. It goes on very smoothly. It fades evenly. And this is the first red lipstick I would trust myself to put on without a mirror. It stains a lot less than your average red lipstick. When it does stain, it looks more like a lip stain than the mess that red lipstick can leave behind.
It has not caused too much bleeding into my upper lip so far, but I could imagine it bleeding a little on people with more lines around their lips. However, I'm sure that priming with a red lip liner could fix that.
It's not long-lasting at all, but the silky feeling and the nice, flattering color makes up for it in my book.
