Make Up For Ever Candy Pink (200) & Fuchsia Pink (201) Artist Acrylips

Candy Pink (200)

Make Up For Ever Candy Pink (200) Artist Acrylip ($24.00 for 0.23 oz.) is a bright, cotton candy pink with cool, blue undertones and a cream finish. It had intense, opaque color coverage with little product.

It’s a liquid lipstick formula that is supposed to have “buildable color intensity and shine” with a “non-sticky, non-drying” formula that includes a slanted, flocked applicator and a squeeze-tube format. I don’t know that I would really describe it as buildable; I would say that you can apply the tiniest amount and get less coverage, though it would still be medium-to-semi-opaque and have less shine. For me, it seemed that more product yielded glossier coverage with slightly more pigmentation. The texture was smooth, lightweight, and spread easily across the lips. If I pressed my lips together, I could see faint “lines,” particular with lighter shades like this one. It lasted for five and a half hours on me and was non-drying. It didn’t seem to have any noticeable scent or taste.

Fuchsia Pink (201)

Make Up For Ever Fuchsia Pink (201) Artist Acrylip ($24.00 for 0.23 oz.) is a bright, medium-dark fuchsia pink with cool, blue undertones and a creamy, lightly glossy finish. It had good color payoff–from semi-opaque to fully opaque–with a smooth, lightweight texture that wasn’t tacky and felt comfortable tow ear. The color wore down to a satin finish (but never looked fully matte) after a few hours, though the color lasted for over six on me. I noticed that some color welled in my lip lines, which was my least favorite part about the formula, but it was true its non-drying claim.
