As you can see, these lipsticks come in sleek gold tubes with the name Too Faced embossed on top. The tubes have a nice weight to it but not too much and look pretty elegant.

I really love the creamy feel of these lipsticks on my lips. They glide onto lips super smoothly with a balm-like texture and do not have a patchy look even if my lips are quite dry. In fact, the formula is nicely moisturizing (despite being lightweight) and feels very comfortable on lips throughout the wear time. The color payoff is fabulous too with a slightly glossy finish…..this is just my kind of formula! The staying power on the La creme lipsticks is about 3 hours which I think is quite good for a cream lipstick, they don’t last through a meal though.

Now let’s talk about the two shades I have here……

Honey Bear is a mauvish-brown with slight shimmer. It’s absolutely gorgeous and should be easy to wear (and flattering) on any skin tone. The shimmer is just right and adds to its prettiness. It’s not too dark and is the perfect natural shade for an instantly polished look.

I Want Candy is a medium pink with coral undertones. Really nice, flattering shade that gives me a pretty pink pout without being too bright. Love the glossy finish too!

Overall, color me impressed! The La Crème Color Drenched Lip Creams really live up to their name. These lippies not only have a smooth and super hydrating feel on the lips but also deliver on the pigmentation front. I highly recommend picking up a shade or two!

Too Faced La Crème Color Drenched Lip Creams ($21) are available in 16 shades at Too Faced.
