It&#8217;s highly pigmented, for starters, and wear time is impressive. I&#8217;ve worn it for an entire afternoon and it&#8217;s\u00a0<em>still<\/em> there. The finish, though matte, is super creamy and non-drying. I haven&#8217;t yet found an affordable matte lipstick that ticked those boxes like ColourPop has\u2014and the fact that it&#8217;s a\u00a0glorified\u00a0crayon\u00a0makes this line all the more attractive. I love a gorgeous lipstick bullet, don&#8217;t get me wrong (my love for the Tom Ford collection is proof), but when push comes to shove, I want ease of portability\u00a0<em>and<\/em>\u00a0use.
