Seventeen Stay Pout Lipstick / Man Hunt

"SEVENTEEN Stay Pout is the long-wear lip colour with stain you need , for hours of kiss proof colour!! Containing Shea butter to keep lips soft." Boots website.

I bought this lipstick in Man Hunt and here are my thoughts:

Variety

 I can guarantee you that there is a shade in this collection for everyone. It's available in brown shades, reds, oranges, pinks, purples..just any shade you can think of. This is definitely a plus for a drugstore lipstick as most of the collections do not have such a huge variety of colours and even high end ones like the Shiseido Shimmering Rouge (review - here)

Price

This lipstick retails for £4.49 which is a really good price for a lipstick.

Packaging

There something about the packaging that I really like. It comes in a really nice, matte black packaging with a couple of glossy lines. I really like the simplicity of the packaging and the black matte packaging makes it really interesting in my opinion.

Ease of use

 This lipstick is really easy to apply as it has a soft and smooth formula. The only problem is that it doesn't really provide an even application but this is not a big minus in my opinion. I've also noticed that more than one coat is needed in order to get the colour of the actual lipstick, with one coat you have just a tiny amount of colour. As its formula is not too creamy it doesn't transfer, even without a lip liner.

The result

 As you can see from the picture the formula of these lipsticks is more of a shimmery one but it's not too shimmery as well. I think this kind of lipsticks are perfect for Spring and Summer. Most shimmery lipsticks feel like a lip gloss on your lips, which I don't like at all, however this one certainly doesn't feel like that. What I really love about this lipstick is that it really moisturizes my lips and they don't feel dry at all. As I mentioned before I recommend applying two coats in order to get a more pigmented result. What may bother some people is its weird smell but that doesn't really bother me. You can see me wearing this lipstick in this outfit!

Longevity

 If you need something that will last you up to 6 hours then you should definitely try this lipstick. It has a great lasting power.
