I have a few of them with me..I am going to review some and some are going to be with a few lucky ones from you 😀 So, yes there is a contest coming up..

To start with, I love the packaging of these..the matching ends look pretty..and so does the swivel up bullet..but ends up getting on the edges :/

There are some totally matte and some with fine shimmer that give a slight glossy sheen..

I am reviewing Muse and Preview today..would be reviewing two more soon..

Muse

It has a sweet smell..which goes away in few seconds..the lipstick glides on smooth..and comes up sheer in one swipe and can be builded..and is completely opaque in 2-3 swipes..once set..it stays and stays put whole day..

Preview

It feels sticky on lips..and sets to a matte finish within an hour..and then looks like a pretty matte stain the whole day…I think this is by far the longest any lipstick has stayed on me..

T-B: Preview, Muse

Muse is a super pretty bright fuchsia pink..it brightens up my face and I soo love this shade..

Preview is a warm mauve pink with some shimmer..an everyday shade..something you can wear to your office too..

My only issue with this, is that it feels a little sticky and heavy on lips and fades unevenly at the end of the day.

You can see how Muse looks  on me after every 3 hours below..

L-R: On application, After 3 hours, After 6 hours

Pros:

1. Pretty packaging.
2. Super pretty shades..all 20..there is one for everyone.
3. Gives a nice matte polished look.
4. Stays put whole day !
5. Leaves a super pretty stain.
6. Does not smear or bleed.
7. Clasps tight and it clicks shut when swiveled up or down..travel friendly.

Cons:

1. Fades unevenly at the end of the day..vanishes from the centre.
2. Feels a little sticky and heavy.
3. Expensive..and that too qty is 2.55g 😮
4. Feels a little dry after 2-3 hours.
5. One needs a good cream based makeup remover to remove it completely.

Overall I would say its not the best long staying lipstick out there..but if you are someone on whom no lipstick stays for long (like me), this is definitely a welcome change. Only thing is you have to bear the little dryness and stickiness. But but I lovee the pretty shades..all pinks, corals, oranges, reds..especially the pinks are totally my kinds..love Muse !! I would say if you love any shade of these or you are the types who like long staying matte lipsticks, you should check these out..but do try it out at the counter and let it stay for an hour or so before buying..coz it flaked off on many and has mixed reviews.
