Overall:

I always judge a product based on how the company describes it. The matte liquid lip paints are said to dry matte and leave your lips vibrant for hours. Also, they are not supposed to budge unless an oil based product is used for removal. 

The vibrancy is accurate but it doesn’t stay for hours. It typically starts to peel away in 2-3 hours and if you reapply, it will causing unevenness and clumping.

I can forgive the lack of durability for the array of flattering colors they offer. Whether nude, bold or edgy, they have a little bit of everything. Not very many lines achieve that.
