Gorgeous Color

I have never, ever been a person who wore bright lipstick but when I received this color I knew I would use it and not only at holidays. It's beautiful.

I liked the color of the lipstick but it does not stay on all day as stated. It rubs off and I find myself putting it on a few times a day I paid alot for it because I have been looking for a lipstick for a while now that would stay on all day.. I dont usually spend this much money for lipstick so I was very dissappointed that it did not stay on all day

The product is terrific. This is the second time I am ordering it -- with many months in between when I have bought more expensive lipsticks that are also fabulous, but twice as much money. My only problem is with the website: you cannot chose the color by name from the photo. Very confusing. . .

didn't like
Date:October 26, 2011
I didn't think this lipstick was "creamy" and it didn't stay on all day as stated. I put it on for the evening and it lasted only a few hours before I had to reapply. Also the color is a little dull.

First of all, how many times is a color description actually correct? The color I chose, MERMAID, is exactly as described, only more beautiful. The color and texture are gorgeous. Not only that, but it really is long lasting. I am delighted with this purchase (my first Paula Dorf product) and I will be a repeat customer. Let's face it, we take a chance when ordering on line, but if this lipstick is any indication of the quality of Paula Dorf's products, I am willing to trust the brand.

Not Impressed
Date:September 29, 2011
I ordered the Bosa Nova and it was much too
bright for me. It does wear well, but for the price
it's not any better than what I can get at a drug
store.

Great Color
Date:September 1, 2011
I have been looking for a lipstick with a lot of color and moisture and this one is perfect. I bought Holiday and love the shade! The only downside is it has a tendency to bleed. I have purchased many Paula Dorf products and love the brand.

creamy

I found this lipstick creamy. It stayed on for quite a while but I got the mauve color and wish it were a bit darker. I will probably try another color.

Neutral color (mermaid) to wear for everyday and smooth finish. Needed to reapply once each day for color and lip protection, but very, very nice product that I would purchase again.

Love this lipstick
Date:June 23, 2011
I am on my second stick of this creamy lipstick. I love the Victorian color; it's not too bright; more of a muted reddish-mauve. It doesn't stain the lips, but doesn't dry out the lips as stains can, and it still has pretty good staying power.

I like this lipstick because it sticks to your lips for a long time. It NOT the creamy, moisturizing lipstick I was led to believe however. The color is good. Rather expensive.

Too shimmery
Date:October 28, 2010
This lipstick looked matte in the catalogue, and the product description said nothing about it being shimmery, but it definitely has some shimmer to it, which is not good for older lips. I wouldn't recommend it for anyone over 40.

Nice texture
Date:October 5, 2010
I bought this in Bosa Nova, and I thought the color looked a little too bright in the tube. However, it looks great when applied! Very nice texture, and it lasts a long time.

not much color

I had high hopes for this lip cream but was disappointed and sent it back. It had very little color and was not flattering at all.
