Looking for a black lipstick when I bought this in 18 September 2013. This is a very cheap offering from lol and the packaging is understandably simple too. The lipstick gives off a cross between the scent of scented pencil eraser and fabric conditioner.

The lipstick has a very greasy, high-shine finish, and the consistency also works against it so that the lip color doesn't hold in place or stay long. It looks semi-sheer when you apply it on the lips, I wish it was matte and packed more color. While you can see the pigmentation, you can also see the lip color beneath it. Too bad, because 'Pitch Black' is a pure solid black color. No red or any undertones.

Below are the description of other shades from their website (2013)...

Conclusion: I can't complain for its price, but the result is really bad and more like a tinted lip balm. At least the black color, I cannot say what with other shades. This is not the black lipstick I'm looking for!

It says, discard the product 12 months from date of opening.
It has a greasy finish as seen in this image. Top it with black eyeshadow for a matte effect and longer staying power.
Not bad. The swatches show good color on first swatch.
These are images from their website. I made this myself.
