Holy smokes this collection of the newly launched Smashbox Always On Liquid Lipsticks is gorgeous, is it not? When I received the box containing this new lineup, I assumed the brand had sent me every shade available but NOT SO! There are an incredible TWENTY matte liquid lipstick shades in this launch. This post only contains HALF of what is available!
These gorgeous little gloss tubes contain a highly pigmented lipstick that can be applied like a gloss. I find the application to be easier than using a standard lipstick, because the angled, sponge-tip applicator can apply cleanly to even the narrowest parts of the lip. What makes them different from other liquid lipsticks? They contain Smashbox Primer Oil complex, to make the formula feel lightweight. This product delivers intense color, and REALLY long wear!
Swatches from left to right: Bawse (a bright true-red), Miss Conduct (deep Bordeaux), Stepping Out (medium neutral), Some Nerve (vivid medium lavender), Chill Zone (grey!), Dream Huge (medium pink), Shockaholic (hot pink), Out Loud (sophisticated brick red), Baja Bound (bright coral), and Driver’s Seat (deep neutral/pink).
The “BAWSE” shade is a collaboration between Smashbox and You Tube sensation Lilly Singh. The in-charge shade of red is intentionally as fierce as the comedienne herself!
Retail price is $24 per tube.
