Marc Jacobs Beauty Up All Night Petites Le Marc Lip Crème Collection

Marc Jacobs Beauty Up All Night Petites Le Marc Lip Crème Collection ($49.00 for 0.25 oz.) includes five miniature-sized lipsticks–all shades are available individually, should only one or two catch your eye–in the brand’s Le Marc Lip Creme formula. The formula claims 10-hour wear with “vivid pigment” and a “rich, velvety” texture that is “ultra-hydrating.” The formula is creamy and glides on easily with good pigmentation (most of the time), but I have not found the formula to be hydrating–at times, even a bit drying–and while the wear is longer than average, it is more likely between four and eight hours, depending on the shade. The lipstick has a sweet, floral scent.

No Angel (242) is a muted, medium-dark peach-brown with warm, yellow undertones and a satin finish. It had nearly opaque color payoff paired with a creamy, velvety texture that sat fairly well on the lips and did not settle into lip lines further over time (there was a very tiny amount initially). The color wore well for six hours but was neither drying nor hydrating. Bobbi Brown Uber Beige (P, $35.00) is glossier (95% similar). Estee Lauder Covetous Nude (P, $30.00) is lighter (95% similar).

Slowburn (246) is a muted, medium-dark rosy mauve with warm undertones and a cream finish. It had full color coverage that applied with smooth, even color that did not drag or pull on the lips. The texture was creamy, light-to-medium in weight, and easy to work with on the lips. On me, it lasted for six hours and was a touch drying.

Oh Miley (200) is a bright, bold, medium-dark red with strong, blue undertones and a cream finish. The color applied beautifully with smooth, even coverage, but it was just a little shy of being fully opaque. The consistency was a bit thinner, but it wasn’t clingy and glided on easily. This shade wore well for nearly eight hours on me, which made it one of the longer-wearing shades in the range for me. It was slightly drying after six hours of wear.

Miss Scarlet (208) is a deep red with warm undertones and a satin finish. The texture was light-medium in weight, so it had a thicker, more velvety consistency that was comfortable to wear and apply as it glided well across the lips. It had rich color payoff, though not quite opaque, and it wore well for seven hours. The formula was neither drying nor hydrating. NARS Mona (P, $32.00) is warmer (95% similar). Urban Decay Hex (P, $17.00) is more muted (95% similar). NARS Shirley (P, $32.00) is lighter, brighter (95% similar). NARS Eva (LE, $32.00) is cooler (90% similar).

Scandal (226) is a deep purple with warm, pink undertones and lighter pink and violet pearl. It had semi-opaque color payoff with an emollient consistency, which meant that the color was prone to sliding around and settling into lip lines. Of all the shades in the set, this one would have me most concerned about feathering for anyone prone to that (it did not feather or bleed on me, though). The color lasted for five hours and was lightly hydrating. It did seem to apply a bit better, overall, compared to the permanent version I have. MAC Yung Rapunxel (LE, $17.00) is warmer, glossier (90% similar). Estee Lauder Extrovert (P, $30.00) is darker, cooler (85% similar). MAC Smoked Purple (P, $17.00) is darker, cooler (85% similar).
