I love the quality and pigment in these lipsticks. They are really saturated with colour and it does last on the lips for a long while. I am not a fan of the packaging. Right off the top, I...

I tried the Red Hot Red and it is definitely a hot shade of lipstick. It's a bright neutral red on me. Has a nice matte finish and good lasting power. A great lipstick.
