Smashbox Nude Beach, Call Back, Easy Be Legendary Lipsticks

Nude Beach

Smashbox Nude Beach Be Legendary Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a medium coral with warm, orange undertones and a natural sheen. It had semi-opaque color payoff with a lightly creamy texture that had some slip but wasn’t too thick or too thin on the lips.

The Be Legendary formula is supposed to have “rich, vibrant color” that is long-wearing and moisturizing. It could have applied more evenly, as I had subtle streaking around the edges or if I pressed my lips together, and a bit of color pulled into my lip lines. This shade lasted for four hours on me and was hydrating.

Call Back

Smashbox Call Back Be Legendary Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a soft, light-medium coral with warm undertones and a slightly pinker tinter paired with a soft sheen. The color had a stronger white base, as I found it to look lighter and pinker applied to my lips. The texture was emollient with moderate slip, but it ran thinner and had a tendency to emphasize any imperfection I had. It went on evenly, but there was some color that slipped into my lip lines. The lipstick wore nicely for three hours, and it was hydrating over time.

Easy

Smashbox Easy Be Legendary Lipstick ($21.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a soft, medium pink-coral with a soft sheen. The brand described it as “sheer brick,” which I sort of see, but the sheer part is definitely true–it had sheer coverage with noticeable gold pearl and glossiness. The consistency was comfortable to wear and didn’t tug when applied directly to the lips, but it filled my lip lines noticeably. This shade lasted for three hours on me, but it was moisturizing.
