I have been lamenting the loss of my Sleek Amped lippie since leaving it behind at Sandance earlier in the year (Florence if you found it pls can I have it back!) and I picked up the Smashbox Be Legendary Lipstick in fuchsia flash matte from Sephora as it looked like a similar colour and -yey!- was also matte.
Well. This is my first Smashbox product and if the other stuff is as amazing as this lippie then I'm a convert! I applied this first thing in the morning for work and it lastest all day. Each time I went to top it up after drinking, eating, talking, it was stil near perfect. For a matte lipstick it was very moisturising, not drying, not prone to settling in the creases or looking bitty. The colour stayed bright and strong and didn't run into fine lines. And the matte is perfect!
The real test came when I came home from work, had a super quick shower, topped up my eye make up, got changed, brushed my teeth and then went straight out. The lipstick stayed on *near perfect*. Seriously, there's no stopping this stuff! I topped it up but it stayed put throughout a hot shower (obvs didn't wash my face) and a vigorous tooth brushing! Amazing.
I went to an award ceremony and was talking, eating and drinking aaaallll night. And my legendary lipstick didn't budge. I had so many comments on the fab colour and I told everyone it was Smashbox!
Super dooper impressed. Top lipstick in my collection currently- and that's saying something! Will be off to check out the other lipstick colours and the rest of the collection. Nice one Smashbox :-)
