As the owner of about 5 sticks of this, I figured it was time for review!
The Flipsticks are not new, they have been around for a while, but I don't see them getting much love on reviews. I will explain a little about why this bothers some.
What many didn't realize is that the lipsticks are creamy in finish, so it's not meant to be worn by nailbiters or girls who intend to do a lot of kissing or sexual relations. It's designed to sit on your lips and look pretty for class or work or a night out.
Now that that's out of the way, I want to stress that the colors shown on CG's site are not all of them. I get mine at walgreens and there are at least 10 sticks to choose from. They are double sided, so that's over 20 options!
They photo well, too!
What I typically do is use one during the day and the other for evening, but it's also great to ombre with when you mix sticks. In the middle photo I layered Plum over Orange using two sticks.
Some things that I don't like are that it's texture is grainy if you aren't careful about scrubbing your lips super well before application. I also don't like that it feathers a little over time. However, the color is there all day!
It's up to you what you choose to put on your face but I give the flipsticks 7.5 out of 10. Good since it's a pioneer idea of double sticks, but Revlon lipsticks last longer with matte finish, so I deducted.
I hope this helps you decide! Stay beautiful lovelies!
