    Hi lovely Rebecca!! Wow 🤩 you are on point 😉 and quick on the new releases , very nice and glossy but if you can’t roll them down it’s a nightmare so probably skips these , but they are pretty 🥰💕

    • @NotFitforPrintBeauty
      @NotFitforPrintBeauty  2 роки тому

      Hello Bridget! People are really thinking that the consistency would be a nightmare if they rolled down. Likely very very true. So they make it impossible to roll down and slightly tough to roll up too easily. Saves everyone aggravation. Likely a sound theory!

  • @pearlite6243
    @pearlite6243 2 роки тому +4

    They don't roll back down because they are so soft, so they would break if you rolled them up too far! The softness is what allows them to melt on the lips.
    I have the Mario Lip Serum and I love it. I always wanted the Em Cosmetics Lip Cushion but very difficult to get a hold of in Australia. But the Mario one is sold at Sephora Australia, and it has more product and less expensive (than the Charlotte Tilbury one too)
    Interesting that Hourglass has revealed a product like this as well! Makes me wonder if perhaps many brands were waiting for mask restrictions to ease before releasing these shiny, lower wear time lip products. Regardless, my lips need all the nourishment they can get hahaha! Thanks for the review Rebecca 😊 xxx

    • @NotFitforPrintBeauty
      @NotFitforPrintBeauty  2 роки тому +1

      Absolutely. They’d make a giant mess if they rolled up more easily and went back down. It’s true. They barely work in a bullet as is. So true. Makes total sense. Yes. I’m wondering if they were waiting for mask mandates to lift too. I bet they were!

    • @NotFitforPrintBeauty
      @NotFitforPrintBeauty  2 роки тому

      Hello Mary! The Mario is the thickst and, for lack of a better word, goopiest. The Charlotte is the thinnest. This one is right in the middle. I can’t remember the price of the Charlotte but, it’s an educated guess that the hourglass version is the most expensive. This one is kind of that in between. It doesn’t stay on very long but neither do the other two. This one has the whole hourglass experience with the long golden container. If you have Charlotte and Mario already, as you note, you would really only need the hourglass if there is a particular shade that strikes your fancy. Or if you are an extreme Hourglass fan.

    I am curious about this but I have to also share my latest discovery from the Sephora sale. I bought the Sephora Glossed Lip Gloss in Blessed. It was 7$ during the sale and 10$ regularly. The formula could be a dupe for Rare Beauty. Really good find at a great price! (not that I needed another lip product 🙄)

    • @NotFitforPrintBeauty

      Hello Mary! I gotta tell you, I have found some of my best beauty buys just shopping the Sephora brand. For instance, they have an airbrush foundation that is a dupe for the Dior air flash foundation. A lot of their lip and eye products are fantastic and made by the same companies that make for the bigger brands.

    I think the reason these don’t roll back down it to keep you from rolling them to far up because they are so soft. The new Tarte ones come to mind, even just with a couple of clicks I feel they want to mush around. Honestly its a formula that a little too soft for a bullet…

    • @NotFitforPrintBeauty
      @NotFitforPrintBeauty  2 роки тому

      Very very perceptive! Yes, with the Mario product, I am still confused as to how they put it into a bullet. It feels to me like it should be in a tube that squeezes. So you make an interesting point. If they roll up too far they’re going to get all sorts of returns because the lipstick will just make a complete mess. So it’s not that the mechanism doesn’t allow a rollback it’s that they assume the customer will have too much trouble with the product if they roll it up too far. I think that is indeed the explanation and you are clearly a genius!🥰

      This is an interesting product especially if, like me, as you say, you prefer gloss to lipstick. This is pretty much a hybrid lipstick and lipgloss. It is not as good as Pat McGrath lip gloss, but what is? Nothing! But as far as a glossy, balm like lipgloss/lipstick, this one is very good and I think you might enjoy it if you try it.

    The shine is divine. The colors you chose are divine. The clickity clickity not so much, BUT I was thinking about it. At first I thought: what the heck, man, if you are going to have such a cheap component, then charge less $$. But now I am thinking that it’s not so much a question of “cheapness,” but a question of the consistency of the product?? Maybe?? What I mean is: the balm is SOOO emollient that it’s almost liquid. There is no way to put liquid back in a component like that. Once it’s out, it’s out. Does this make any sense at all????? 🤪🤪 Do I have the budget?? Yes; and HG is pricey. Do I have room in my makeup space?? How I can put this delicately?? No. Do I care?? Also no. I really want to try one of these liquid-y shiny shiny shiny shiny formulas!!!!! Not sure if I mentioned they look shiny. 🤩🤩🤩🤩💖

      I think you’ve really hit on it. If the product gets rolled up too far, it’s molten and just goes everywhere. If it’s rolled back down, it’s a mess. Mess for the consumer. Mess for there brand in consumer complaints. Mess all around. Make it unable to retract and the issue is eliminated. Now the clickity click I have no explanation for. Haha.

      @@NotFitforPrintBeauty Exactly!!! Could we eliminate the issues you pointed out without the clickity click?? I have not studied package design, but I AM wondering. Why does the component that cannot go back down make the same noise across brands?? Could it just slide smoothly and not go CLICK CLICK (capital letters because it’s LOUD, dawg 😂😂)??? 🥰🥰💖

      @@MissBeeeBeee I think the click denotes one turn ? So you kind of are cognizant of how much you’re rolling up? So it’s not getting everywhere and then not rolling back down?? A theory in progress.

    Ok but why does that packaging look like Mascara? Lol it looks large doesn’t it? Maybe it’s just on camera. It must be something about those melty formulas that they can’t go back down. It prob would just goop up and get struck or something. Can’t just be by choice. But yes let’s have a lab confirm lol

    • @NotFitforPrintBeauty

      Hey Veronica! They do look like mascara. I love how they call it phantom. Like it’s in a phantom like tube. It’s a phantom because you think it’s mascara! Ha ha. Yes. That seems to be the consensus. That if the consumer were to roll the product up too high the stuff would just go everywhere because it’s almost too soft for a bullet to begin with. So the consensus is that they could make it roll up and back down but it would just get to be an absolute mess for the consumer that way.

    I will start by saying it is beautiful & it may have been something I would have considered BUT I refuse to purchase anything that doesn't retract. This is high end beauty so I feel they could have spent the extra 2 cents rather than making a product that ends up being wasted.
    Once again it appears to be a beautiful formula & probably has benefits but they killed the deal with the delivery.

    • @NotFitforPrintBeauty

      The consensus seems to be that, if it rolled up too far and retracted, it would just make a huge mess. The product is so shiny that it’s shocking it’s in a lipstick at all rather than a tube. That’s got to be the explanation.
