00:00Hey guys, it's Mian and this is Beauty With Me.
00:03Today I have three metallic liquid lipsticks that I am putting to the test.
00:08I think they'd be perfect for any parties you're going to,
00:11perfect for the winter season, amazing for New Year's.
00:15So we have three different brands that we're trying out today.
00:17The first of which is from CoverGirl.
00:20These are the Melting Pout metallic liquid lipsticks.
00:24Next up we have these ones from Lottie London.
00:26They're called the Slay All Day liquid lipsticks in the metallic formulation.
00:31And finally we have these babies from Smashbox.
00:37I'm going to put all three of these lipsticks through the 12 hour wear test to see how they hold
00:42up.
00:43And you're coming with me.
00:44But first, are you subscribed?
00:47If you're not, click down here, the little subscribe button,
00:50so you can hang out with me every single Monday.
00:52So I'm actually going to try on all three of these lipsticks right now,
00:55just so we can see how they apply the first impressions, the formula,
01:00and then I'm going to wear them for three consecutive days.
01:03And that's where we'll see how long they wear.
01:06So first up, Rockstar, CoverGirl.
01:08I actually love the combination of red lips and blue shadow.
01:12So this look is very me.
01:15Fuzzy, slanted applicator.
01:17You push the product out like this.
01:20It looks like these are going to be nice because you can kind of sheer them out
01:23if you want to wear them as a stain instead of just a full on metallic liquid lip.
01:27It's actually really easy to apply because the formula itself is very creamy.
01:32So it glides on really easily.
01:34It feels really good.
01:35It actually feels like balm.
01:37It doesn't have any like explicit long wear claims, but it is a liquid lipstick.
01:40So in theory, it should last a long time.
01:42I'm definitely getting metallic vibes here.
01:45It definitely comes off on your hands.
01:47If you were to kiss someone or like drink out of a coffee cup,
01:51it's not completely transfer proof.
01:54I'm into it right now, especially because my lips are very dry.
01:58But I have a few other colors here.
02:00We're going to swatch them all for you.
02:02And you can see which one you like the best.
02:05Next up, we have these lovely lipsticks from Smashbox.
02:09Now these lipsticks are supposed to last for eight hours.
02:13So we will see.
02:14I'm going to wear them for 12.
02:15So we'll see if we can stretch it a little bit.
02:18Right off the bat, I'm into this applicator.
02:21It has a nice tapered tip.
02:23It comes to a point.
02:24I think that that's going to be really great for getting along my lip line.
02:27It has a little bit of a reservoir tip as well,
02:30like right here where you can see there's a little bit of a hole,
02:32like a little divot, and there's product catching in there.
02:35I think that'll be nice for applying a nice smooth opaque layer.
02:38I love the color.
02:40I definitely see this metallicness,
02:43but I think it's a little less metallic in finish than the CoverGirl one that I just tried.
02:48I think in part because this one does dry down matte,
02:51whereas the CoverGirl one has more of a satin finish.
02:54I wonder if it's going to start to dry out my lips after a few hours of wear.
02:59Let's do a little test to see if it's completely dry.
03:04Nothing.
03:05I love that a lot of brands are coming out with metallic lipsticks that are in beautiful, really wearable colors.
03:11Last but not least, we have these fellas from Lottie London, the Slay All Day liquid lipsticks.
03:17They're supposed to be very long wearing.
03:19They are called Slay All Day.
03:21I have this shade.
03:22It's called Boy By.
03:24Ooh, it's very metallic.
03:26And then I have another shade called Shook.
03:30Am I going to be Shook by Shook?
03:33Getting 90s vibes from this.
03:34So I think I'm going to go with Boy By, which is this plum shade,
03:39just to keep it all in the same color family in terms of all the lipsticks that I'm wearing today.
03:44Very pigmented in one swipe.
03:47So right off the bat, this one feels drier than the other two,
03:51but nothing too crazy right now.
03:53I wonder if, you know, four hours down the road if it will start to crust,
03:58but it does feel really good.
03:59Out of all three, I think this one is the most metallic.
04:02Let's see if it will close my fingers.
04:07Nothing. Nada.
04:09I'm curious to see how this one wears.
04:11I'm wondering if it's going to get drying.
04:13Hopefully it won't, but so far I like it.
04:16I think it's really pigmented.
04:17I think it was easy to apply.
04:19So I guess only time will tell.
04:21Let's move on to the 12-hour test.
04:23Hey guys!
04:24I am wearing the CoverGirl metallic lipstick today,
04:28and it is around 9am, about to head off to work
04:31and wear this for a full 12 hours.
04:33So far, so good.
04:35The lipstick is looking great.
04:36I just put it on, so of course it is.
04:38It feels really good.
04:39I was so excited to have this lipstick on today
04:41because it has a slick, emollient, like, balm-like quality,
04:45even though it does have this beautiful metallic finish.
04:48So therefore, it's a little bit hydrating on my extremely chapped lips.
04:53So that's a plus.
04:55It is around 1pm.
04:57I just had a little bit of lunch.
04:58It's wearing a little bit in the center, but nothing too crazy.
05:02And I have something really fun and very seasonal to do.
05:06I have a gingerbread house!
05:09I just made my gingerbread house.
05:12It's dying a slow, slow death.
05:15I had some gumdrops and some gingerbread, and lipstick is holding up.
05:21Still feels really good.
05:22Still feels like balm.
05:23Like, I can go like this, and I can feel it, like, sliding on my lips,
05:26which is actually really nice.
05:27I think it's fading a little bit in terms of, like, the color.
05:30It definitely doesn't have as much of a metallic finish anymore.
05:33It's leaving a nice stain on my lips that I like.
05:36I'll check in with you guys at 5 o'clock, and we'll see how this fella is doing.
05:41Bye!
05:42It's around 5pm.
05:43I've been wearing this lipstick for quite some time now.
05:46I, at this point, it has faded a lot.
05:49It's feathering a little bit, which is as expected because I had a really big burrito for lunch,
05:54and I ate quite a bit of it, so it's kind of coming off.
05:57I really like it because it feels like lip balm.
06:00It kind of stains the lips, so I actually don't feel like I need to reapply it.
06:06But for the sake of this video, I will.
06:09It's around 9pm.
06:10I've been wearing my lipstick for 12 hours,
06:12and I've got to say I'm very impressed with how evenly and pigmented the stain is.
06:18In terms of the metallicness, it's definitely gone now.
06:21If you look at it, it's definitely more of a stain.
06:24It's really only got that metallic sheen once it's, like, freshly applied,
06:27and for a couple hours after that until it starts to wear off.
06:30But overall, I really enjoyed it.
06:32It definitely doesn't have the longevity of a true matte liquid lipstick.
06:36But that being said, I really enjoyed it, especially because it's super cold, and try outside.
06:40It was so nice to have a pigmented lipstick that wears and feels like lip balm.
06:47That's my two cents on this one.
06:49I've got a few more lipsticks to try, so stay tuned.
06:52Hey guys, it's 9am.
06:54I got to work a little bit early today because I have a lot of stuff to do,
06:57but I'm wearing metallic lipstick, of course.
07:01This is the Smashbox one.
07:03It doesn't feel drying yet.
07:05I'm excited to see how it wears.
07:07It's 1pm.
07:07I'm here with Mikayla.
07:09Hello.
07:09So I've had a lot of tea.
07:11I've had some snacks.
07:12Some snacks.
07:14And it looks pretty much the same.
07:16What do you think?
07:16It's cool.
07:17It kind of has a metallic-y, sparkly finish, which I really like.
07:20Good for holidays.
07:21That's exactly why I'm doing it!
07:24I didn't tell her anything about the video, so...
07:25I had no context, I swear.
07:27I'm wearing well.
07:28I'm going to eat lunch in just a bit.
07:29And then at my 5pm check-in, I will let you know how it stands up against food.
07:34It's 5pm.
07:34I just had lunch because I was just so accustomed to work, I forgot to eat.
07:41So I ate a very oily salad.
07:43And I don't eat salads gracefully.
07:46And the lipstick has come off.
07:49We'll see how it lasts until 9pm.
07:52And I'll check in for the final update.
07:54I've been wearing this lipstick for 12 hours.
07:57Looks pretty good.
07:59Still has a metallic finish.
08:01I did reapply at like 5-ish.
08:04But it wore pretty well until I started to eat that really oily salad.
08:08But I'm going to do a little mistletoe test.
08:11She just wants the mistletoe.
08:14I just kissed my kitty a bunch and now I'm going to kiss Collin with some mistletoe.
08:20No thanksy.
08:22Nothing on the face.
08:23Well that's me signing off.
08:25Say bye Collin.
08:26Bye.
08:27It's the final day of my lipstick challenge.
08:29I'm wearing the Lottie London metallic lipstick today.
08:32And I've got to say it feels really comfortable.
08:34I just put it on though so we'll see if it gets crusty or dry throughout the day.
08:37But so far so good.
08:39I actually have some exciting things planned today.
08:41I'm going to be hosting the second installment of our Harry Potter reread club.
08:47So we'll see how this lipstick wears through that and more.
08:50It's 1pm.
08:50I just had lunch.
08:51I had a giant bagel and the lipstick is still pretty even around the outside of my mouth.
09:02But definitely wearing in the center.
09:03And I don't know about you guys but I don't eat bagels in very dainty gentle ways.
09:09I kind of just go at it.
09:11So I think considering it held up pretty well.
09:15But I definitely want to reapply and see how the lipstick layers on top of itself.
09:21So I'm going to do that right now.
09:24It's starting to feel just a touch dry but nothing too uncomfortable yet.
09:30It's a little bit before 5 o'clock and I'm going to be heading out for the day soon.
09:35I haven't eaten anything since around 1, like when I had my lunch.
09:39So the lipstick has stayed on really well.
09:42I think that if you're not going to be eating anything really greasy,
09:44like a salad or the bagel or pizza, it will actually stay on really well.
09:49Like look at this.
09:50It did get a little bit crusty.
09:52Like the product was peeling a little bit toward the center between my lips.
09:56So I just took a tissue and blotted it away and then it ended up being fine.
10:01So that's one thing to note.
10:02It was a little bit uncomfortable.
10:04But all in all, it has worn well.
10:06So we're at Harry Potter Reread Club and I've been eating some of these cookies that my friend Carly made.
10:10What do you guys think?
10:11It looks good.
10:11It looks brilliant.
10:12Nice.
10:13Thank you!
10:13I'll give you guys a closer look.
10:15It looks good.
10:16It's not feathering.
10:18It doesn't feel drying.
10:21So far so good.
10:22I will check in with you guys later today and let you know what I think.
10:26Bye!
10:26So Harry Potter Reread Club has sadly come to a close.
10:29It's like 11ish and this is the state of the lipstick now after having had pumpkin pie and more apple
10:37cider and the works.
10:38So it's on but definitely a stain.
10:42It's pretty much completely off.
10:44But I gotta say I'm very impressed with the way it wore.
10:48The liquid lipsticks tend to wear very patchy on me and end up getting really dry to the point where
10:53I have to use a wipe to take them off.
10:55But this one actually just like wore relatively evenly.
10:59I mean obviously you can see little bits of it.
11:02It's definitely not a lipstick to wear if you want it to last through something like ramen or pizza.
11:07It's like not gonna do it.
11:08But I like it.
11:09It was very comfortable honestly.
11:11And it was very easy to layer on top of itself.
11:15So definitely not.
11:16It's not the longest wearing but it's still a good one.
11:19And there you have it.
11:20Those are all three of the lipsticks put through the ringer.
11:24Let me know which one you like the most.
11:26Which one was your favorite color?
