Date Mate
ColourPop Date Mate Lippie Stix ($5.00 for 0.0352 oz.) is a deep fuchsia pink with cool, blue undertones and a flat, matte finish. The consistency was much drier and firmer than the majority of Lippie Stix I’ve come across, which made it tug and pull at the lips when I attempted to apply it. I was quite surprised that it applied as evenly as it did, as stiffer formulations usually end up looking streaky, thick, and uneven. The formula was clingy, which made it feel drier on, though it did not start to feel drying until three hours into wear (of total of six hours of wear).

Konichiwa
ColourPop Konichiwa Lippie Stix ($5.00 for 0.0352 oz.) is a muted, medium pink with cool undertones and a natural finish. It had semi-opaque pigmentation with a moderately emollient texture that was lightly tacky. The lipstick felt firmer in the tube, but it warmed up and melted against the warmth of my lips, which made it more malleable. It’s part of the Creme finish range, which is supposed to have “medium to full coverage,” so it seemed like it was in line with the description (most of the Lippie Stix finishes are full coverage). This shade wore for four and a half hours and was lightly hydrating.

Let's Play
ColourPop Let’s Play Lippie Stix ($5.00 for 0.0352 oz.) is a bright, medium-dark ruby red with cool undertones and pink and ruby red pearl and sparkle. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that covered the lips with smooth, even color. The texture wasn’t completely smooth–I could tell it had a ton of shimmer in it–but it glided on without tugging and didn’t feel gritty or rough on the lips. It wore well for over six hours, left a reddish stain behind, and was neither drying nor hydrating.
