So I got Captivating and Charming and I'm really pleased with the colours. I don't ware a lot of lipstick so I like natural colours with a hint of something different. Charming is a pretty pink with coral undertones and Charming is a pretty berry mid-tone pink. They go on smooth though you have to go over a couple times, and I'd recommend a good lip-balm before application or it just really sit on top and looks like a cheep lipstick. As for lasting power? Not so good, 2-3 hours top before you have to reply, that's without eating. Over all for a [$] I can't complain, for someone just getting into lipsticks or wanting to experiment with colours I'd suggest it.The packaging thought is a little stick- if that makes sense, the charming was vary stiff when i first tried to used it.

I ordered captivating, and it is much more orange than I expected it to be, but I kind of like it, because I had never thought to buy a lipstick of that shade before and it's actually really pretty with a lot of my summer and spring clothing.I would say that these lipsticks are a great value for [$], but as a [$] item, they do have their flaws. The color itself is brilliant, but when you put the lipstick on it's almost too thin... it smears around and leaves thin spots in the color, which is exactly the opposite of what I expected. Most cheap lipsticks are extremely dry. I prefer this formula to the dryness. To remedy this problem, I simply always wear lipliner under it, and set the lipstick with translucent powder once I have it on. The initial coat of lipstick is very nice and shiny, but if left without the powder it wears off very quickly.

I purchased these lipsticks in Fantasy, Classy and Seductive! LOVE LOVE LOVEEEEEE them! I wear fantasy on a daily basis with a natural gloss or mocha gloss Classy is definitely a special occasion light pink and GORGEOUS with gloss! Seductive is also a nice everyday/ going out color!

HOWEVER to every good there HAS to be a bad and I must say the packaging is ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE! It is hard to turn the packaging to put the lipstick on your lips and my first time using Fantasy it broke completely off -_- Depot the ones that really suck as far as packaging and you will be fine!

After just using the product once, the lipstick broke and I had to put it into an empty Carmex pot. The swatches on the website are nowhere near true to color. I have gypsy and fearless. On here fearless is a nice deep red, in real life it is a bright red. Not that it's ugly but I was looking for a deeper red. Gypsy appears to be a nice reddish color with a hint of purple. Instead it is a fuschia that I have to tone down by first applying clear lip gloss. At least it isn't drying.

This is my favorite lipstick! I bought it in the shade Fearless and it's just gorgeous. My only problems were that the container got stuck the day I opened it and wouldn't allow the lipstick to go back down. Also, just by pressing it against my lips, the lipstick ended up breaking off! But this was easily fixed ... I ended up melting it down with my favourite lip balm (Burt's Bees) and it smells even sweeter. Still a great buy for [$]!

I have this in Captivating and Seductive. I really like both but Captivating broke. The twist up cap thing kept getting stuck too, but i still really like these lipsticks.

I got this in Charming and it's amazing! I've heard that the container is bad and shaves off the lipstick, but that's not true of mine. It goes on easily, looks great, and feels awesome. I highly recommend this lipstick to anyone! I don't use makeup often, and this lipstick is the first one I've ever bought. A great first purchase! I'm going to buy more colors in the future!

I had to watch a couple of videos on youtube before purchasing elf's lipsticks (to know if the color is true). I got this in nostalgic and I absolutely love it. I'm always worried of getting a color that's too obvious and too unnatural on my lips (too bright, too pink, too dark). I like neutral and natural looking colors - I don't want it to be super obvious that I'm wearing lipstick. This color is beautiful: it's light and the color isn't so bright. You can build it up. One coat, and it's slightly paler. Two to three coats and it's fairly nuder. It's moisturizing for the first couple of minutes but more than 30-45 minutes, I find that it loses its moist, but applying a clear lip balm over it will revive the hydration. I gave it a 4 stars because it does wear off easily.

My recommendation: try to find videos on youtube or pictures of the lipstick product you actually like before buying. For nostalgic, the picture of the website showed it a bit coral/pink/shimmer. But once on my lips, it has a slight purple tint to it.
