The special thing behind this product is that it contains absolutely no wax whatsoever, which allows for a crystal clear shine and color, and easy removal, and no stickiness. The catch about this, however, is that since it doesn't have any wax in it, it bleeds really easily. If you use a lip liner though, there isn't a problem as long as the lip liner you're using is of good quality.
This specific color has a cream finish with no shimmer/glitter, and is a warm-toned, rich red. When I swatched it with flash, it looked color toned. But in every other lighting besides flash, this has a pretty strong orange undertone. This is pigmented, but I wouldn't say it's opaque. When first applied, this will have at least sheer to medium coverage, but can be built up to full coverage. It's kind of hard to build this into completely full coverage though because when you overlap the previous layer, some spots may be swept away and left bare.
Without a good lip liner, this will literally last ten minutes before completely bleeding outside the lip line, but still stays put nonetheless for some time after that. When using a lip liner, this lasts about an hour, and then it kind of starts to fade and erode away. It will come off completely after having a full meal, and easily transfers onto cups you drink out of.
I would repurchase this again just because I like it's finish, but it's a very high maintenance so I would only wear this rarely.
