COVERGIRL Exhibitionist Ultra Matte Lipstick, Wink Wink, Pack of 1

I love lipstick! They don’t last all day but I don’t mind reapplying. The color “risky business” is a nice color. On me it looked like a deep almost natural with a touch of purple, very pretty! It dries to a lovely matte. Very very slightly dry like you would expect from a matte. But only slightly. No kiss transfer. A little transfer to water bottle. I had a cup of coffee and it did not transfer to cup and is still on my lips. I think this is a real keeper!!

There isn’t a time when I wear this lipstick that I don’t get tons of compliments I have purchased it multiple times and Amazon has the best prices for it. If you were looking for a very nice matte red lipstick, this is the one it doesn’t spread out over the lip, it stays put and lasts hours.!! It is buttery soft and it goes on effortlessly. This is one of the truest red lipsticks out here so if you’re looking for a nice red, this is the one.

Have used this brand of lipstick for years. Everyone always asks why my lipstick stays on for so long while wearing it. Didn't care too much for this color but I haven't found any lipstick that lasts as long as this one does. My favorite is "Risky Business"

I bought this in spite of the reviews complaining about color and texture, and I'm glad that I did. It's interestingly matte but metallic, which may or may not be your jam if you have highly textured lips. However, I have scars on my lips and have had lines around my lips since my early thirties that otherwise feather lipstick badly, and this doesn't feather on me at all. I also have about 2mm of lip beyond the vermillion border on the bottom lip that I've only ever been able to cover with a longwear liquid in the past, not even stains. This covered it, and it stayed covered. The texture IS stiff going on, and if you try to put it on like a regular bullet, it will seem to be dried out or defective, but it isn't. It's just a matter of how you apply it. I found that applying it slowly in one coat, letting it drag the lip while you apply works to put down a good layer of color, but the most effective application was layering up multiple thin transparent layers of color until you're satisfied. I bought it to use over pudding pot lip color for color alteration and ombre effects, and it works amazingly for that as long as you're patient and just build up the color gradually. All pictures are unretouched in different lighting: warm artificial light (high and low), white artificial light, shadow mimicking night lighting, and daylight through a window. No primer. No lipliner. No topper. Wear has been impressive: - After eating pasta with oily sauce: Lightened fairly evenly all over, and only the very inner rim came off. - Applying over itself after eating the pasta: went on just as it did before, perfectly even, same texture. - Kissing skin with a fresh application. No transfer at all. - Full night's sleep wearing: still significant color in the morning, a little patchy on the bottom lip where I have scars, but nothing that couldn't be smoothed out, and the top lip just lightened. Most impressive part: no feathering into the lines around my lips. - Wiping off with nothing but a tissue or paper towel: some of it wiped off, but largely, the color stayed put unless I applied enough pressure and enough wiping to hurt. Feeling on the lips: - Not gonna lie, it is dry, but that's the price you pay for heavily pigmented long wear twist up lipstick. - There's none of the silicone slip feeling from brands like Fwee or the original Revlon Colorstay (for the 40+ crowd). - You *can* put a balm over the top for a slightly more moist look (very slightly--I wouldn't bother, personally.) - If balm is applied over the lipstick, it makes the lipstick feel like a normal matte bullet lipstick, but then it also performs like one by feathering, transferring, and wiping off easily. Oddities and (minor, IMO) issues: - Yes the stick is more brittle than a bullet lipstick typically is. Mine arrived with the lipstick loose inside the tube and lost its tip to being mushed against the top of the cap during shipping or storage. The problem was easily solved by pressing the lipstick gently but firmly against the base (in 70 degree temperatures) until they adhered. There have been no problems since. - The color is super interesting in the way it shifts. With direct artificial lighting, it tended to look like a mid-denim blue-gray. In low or warm lighting, it looked black. And in daylight through a window, it shows the color it looked most like to the naked eye which is a dark super-saturated blue, but it just does not photograph well in that color. In the sample photo, that's the top right image. The shine of blue in the middle is the color the lipstick looks like all over to the naked eye. -Wiping the color off, it is BLACK. I tried enhancing the saturation, vibrance, exposure, and nothing would bring out anything but black against the white paper towel. (See image)

The color is great. Its creamy. Long-lasting

Nice color, but its very wet & smears like crazy. Wish it was smear proff. I do not wear this around my boyfriend if I want to kiss him. Be careful, smears easily & it doesn't last at all.

My favorite lip color

Edit: I've worn this shade a few times now and as I had mentioned before I do like it. I've grown to REALLY like it actually however it isn't correctly represented in the photos. I now give this shade 4 stars up from 1. It goes on smooth and lasts a good long while. It stays on well and removes very easily. The shade is very dark and pretty.😍 Color is almost black. Not at all represented by the pictures, so please beware. Although it's outrageously not represented correctly by the photos, I sort of like it. I'm still searching for a purple color that is right for me though. The photos display what I want but that is NOT what it actually is.

Perfect wear.

Consistency is not good

This is wonderful matte lipstick. Purchased the colour Risky Business. First I want to say that it does not last for 12 hours. 4-6 at best if you eat/drink through out the day, however, that being said, it is the best matte lipstick I have used to date. It may not last the full 12 hours, but this lipstick does not dry out your lips even when reapplying it through out the day. and the colour is a little bit lighter than indicated. Not by much though. Overall, I just have to say this is the best matte lipstick out there!

Love this lipstick. A nice red.. glides over. Not a non-transfer matte though and does not last longer than a few hours. Yet its a great buy for the colour and finish.

The best lipstick. I find it sooo difficult to find one that suits me and this does. Stays on for hours aswell
