a note on liquid suede

sandstorm, life's a beach, tea & cookies

I'm kind of loving the Nyx Liquid Suede cream lipsticks--actually they're a strong second place in the competition for best drugstore lippies according to me. 

• the formula is pretty legit as far as opacity/color payoff.
• the wearablity is only slightly questionable because the reapplication isn't the best; it does curdle up after just a few hours (wearing a chapstick base helps a bit), but after eating and drinking the color is still visible and renewing layers can be applied smoothly.
• idk about the packaging because the L'Oreal matte ones are a smaller tube, but have more product...? That annoys me.
• it doesn't transfer nearly as much as the L'Oreal matte glosses after the layer(s) dry.

Despite the cons I would still repurchase at least sandstorm and recommend them to those wanting to save a little money.
