OVER HYPED: Marc Jacobs Lust For Lacquer Lip Vinyl - Full
When I heard Marc Jacobs was launching a makeup line I was so damn excited and being the total lip junkie that I am I went straight for the Lust for Lacquer Lip Vinyls (202 Paint it Red just screamed my name, it looked like the perfect coral with just the right amount of pink and just the right amount of red) Whilst the lip lacquers have some beautiful shades, are highly pigmented and beautifully shiny, they have a tendency to apply unevenly and cling onto the dry patches of the lips. Secondly, they are SUPER drying and have very poor staying power (move your lips the slightest and they smear all over the place) but my biggest gripe with these was the fact that… for the love of god they burned! The “plumping” formula of these was more like a “burning” formula and I felt the urge to take the lacquer off straight away. Finally, the packaging = major fail. These leak EVERYWHERE so don’t even think about chucking one in your bag and applying it on the go (unless you want your handbag to have a slick of gloss) I really wanted to love these and have tried them multiple times in hopes that my opinion would change about them but they were a major fail for me and I don’t understand why they’ve won so many awards.
