Almay Lipstick with Vitamin E Oil & Shea Butter, Matte Cream Finish, Hypoallergenic, Sleep Later, 0.14 Oz

I purchased the shade Call Out & I couldn’t be happier! I’m a sucker for packaging so wasn’t expecting much from a cardboard tube of lipstick but was surprised to say the least! It’s moisturizing, pigmented, and can easily be reapplied. The packaging is similar to the newly released Tarte holiday ones. BUY THIS if you’re into brown nudes - so similar to my Velvet Teddy Holy Grail.

Since turning 40 I've noticed I am losing my natural lip pigment. So I bought my first real lipstick from Mac a few years ago (I only wore chapstick prior), but unfortunately my favorite shade was a limited edition so I've been looking for a replacement for a while. I found my dupe w/Skip the Gym and actually feel like it lasts longer than Mac's did. I have bought 8 shades in total and love the cream and matte finishes, although personally I lean more towards cream. I feel like all of the colors I could wear any day (some w/less makeup overall) w/o looking like a clown. The darker colors wear off really nicely too, although they will transfer but not an insane amount.Pics1. My Collection2. My Natural Lips3. Skip the Gym (exact dupe to my Mac lipstick! That actually lasts longer-definitely my FAVORITE for everyday)4. Worry Less5. Never Regret (my least favorite shade, tiny bit too brown for my taste and washes me out)6. Call Out (dupe for the 90's Coffee Bean, that I think looks great on all skin tones)7. Smile (don't think I'll wear this unless it's summer)8. Be Strong (one of my favs)9. Treat Yourself (a red that has a blue undertone and makes your teeth bright white)10. Believe (also makes your teeth super white)

I bought a few of these lip vibes about a year ago on a whim (aka they were on clearance and I wanted to start wearing lipstick!)Normally I would just wear only neutrals to work sometimes but I was inspired to try some bright colors to contrast the gray winters ☁️ So I originally tried Love Big (bright, coolish pink), Eat Cake (purple-pink), and Love Yourself (brick red). I really liked the formula, it goes on smooth and isn’t drying. I feel like I don’t really worry about feathering either. My friend gifted me Go Wild, which is a nude that really does nothing for me.I recently learned about skin undertones and was itching to try some new shades for fun. I guess I have cool undertones so I tried the blue based bright red (Treat Yourself), Get Crazy (berry-red), and Worry Less (a mauvish nude). Pictured wearing are the treat yourself and get crazy shades. I really liked how these ended up! Please excuse the tampon box in background 😅 (playtex hmu).

I got the color Smile and it was perfect! I have very pale skin and light pink lips. This color was just enough red to make my lips pop but not so much I looked like I was feeling amorous. I usually try to highlight natural parts of my beauty rather than cover it up, so don’t fear it will be too dark on pale skin. I do have skin that dries easily and it doesn’t seem to moisturize very much, but some lipsticks make my lips crack so I can live with that. I’d recommend it if you prefer colors closer to natural lips. The photo I provided had darkened lighting but that’s pretty close to how it came out.

I really like this balm/lipstick. Skip the gym. Feels so creamy and nourishing to the lips. The shade is lovely and makes a perfect lip topper. It adds a pretty , comfortable , sheen to matte lipsticks. It’s neat seeing how this changes the look of lipsticks I own. I think it looks so pretty on my classic blue based red lipsticks. I didn’t expect to like the shade as much as I do. I even ordered two extras. I enjoy wearing it on its on when I’m having a no makeup day. I couldn’t detect an scent but I’ve had a head cold so it could have a mild scent. It’s One of the nicer balms I’ve bought. I hope this review helps.

First of all, it IS NOT matte at all, more like satin finish and quite sheer so DO NOT expect it to be a legit matte lipstick. Having said that, it is very comfortable to wear, does not dry out my lips and this colour is a perfect, pinky nude.

This is very sheer and iridescent with a slight color payoff. I feel like it would be best as a lipstick topper or over a lip liner.

I recently watched a movie that Sharon Tate was in called, Eye of the Devil. I saw this beautiful young girl and wondered if it was her - it was. I was interested in her makeup, so went to YouTube and there was a young girl that was interested in her as well. From this video, I discovered this Almay Skip to the Gym lipstick was a good match in what Sharon wore. Long story short (ha,ha), I purchased three of these lovelies. I am 62 yrs and this past year, my lips have become very dry and I have forever been trying new things for my thirsty lips. I must say, with the price point, I am surprised that this is a very nice go to lipstick/balm. I also chose Girl Boss and the blue tinted lip topper. All of these are on the light side, which is fine for me. It is in an adorable packaging, and Amazon makes things so easy - good price, easy returns. HOWEVER, these will not be going back. They are well worth a look see and I hope you consider giving them a try. Thank you, Susan

Bought this when in America, lovely colour, doesn't dry your lips. Delighted to find i could buy it on Amazon although its alot more expensive and is shipped from America. Maybe Almay could start stocking it in the UK, there's a lovely range of colours

Excellent

Again, I've chosen an Almay product for my allergenic lips. I choose Almay products as they are advertised as non irritating. This lipstick seems to be moisturizing. My only regret is my color choice. I wanted a paler shade of pink with a little color. Unfortunately this is far too pale. I bought " 120 Go Wild."There isn't enough color depth for me, and I have very fair skin. It doesn't show enough on my lips.Such is the risk one takes when buying online.

I love the bright colors of these lipsticks. Unfortunately, the Ingredients are anything but natural. 😐Not a good idea when lipstick is one of the many ways we can inadvertently ingest undesirable chemicals.Try Mineral Fusion or Burts Bees. Better choices for your health and both with lovely shades too.Geraldine Helen Hartman author of,Laughing at the Grim Reaper! Gems of Wisdom for Aging Well 🌺

So i bought this thinking it will look like on the YouTuber I saw (picture with the girl holding the lipstick). But it looks more pinkish on me :( I think I’m warm toned so I need something orange based. If you are cold toned and more pale, this might look red on you :) this is a crème formula and the ingredients are nice. It creases a bit, but it is creamy and not drying. It is not transfer proof tho :( I’ll keep searching for my deep red dream :)
