LA Girl Glazed Lip paint review

This post is all about my venture into the field of liquid lipstick. Eeeek. If you know me you will know that I am afraid of excessive shine and colour- a nude gloss is about as far as I am willing to go. I have seen so many reviews of the Too Faced Melted liquified lipsticks and really wanted to be brave and try them out, however at £19 that was never going to happen. Many reviews I read mentioned that the L.A.Girl Glazed Lip Paints are very similar to the Melted range and let's face it, when presented with a choice of £19 and £3.99 I obviously chose the latter. 

I found these at Beauty Base and I spent a very long time deciding on which colours to buy. I decided on four to begin with and figured I would go back for more colours if I liked them.


LA Girl Lip Paint

I have to say, firstly, that the pigment in these lip paints is phenomenal. Extremely vibrant and bold- if you are big on vibrant, opaque colour then I would say these are definitely worth a try! They have a minty scent which is not overpowering and the gloss really packs a punch. Unfortunately, regardless of these good points, I found them quite difficult to work with for one reason. The formula. I found the product very runny. As the tube has a large hole in the top, you get far too much product from even a gentle squeeze. I tried applying it directly from the tube to my lips- big mistake! I would definitely recommend a lip brush for a precise application. I would also strongly recommend a lip liner with the nude colours. Whisper, in particular, looks utterly ridiculous on me without a liner. Although I think the colours are really nice, I unfortunately don't think I will be going back for more.

You can purchase these Lip paints online here  or on Ebay. Alternatively, if you are near a Beauty Base they should be available in there. 

L.A. Girl were definitely spot on with the vibrancy and boldness of the range. With an improved formula I think this could be a really good product.  Are these really similar to the £19 Too Faced lipsticks?  I would love to try them out to see how the formula differs. Have you tried both these products? What do you think?
