Barry M Lip Paint, 52 - Shocking Pink

I'm not a make-up girl at all. I never know what I'm doing, and with lipsticks I never know what suits me and what looks like a child playing dress-up. So why I thought about buying a lipstick at all is beyond even me, but I am very glad that I did, and EXTREMELY happy that I chose this one.I was very dubious about the colour at first. I knew that it would go pink based on the PH balance of my lips, but I was worried that that it would turn out to be the most unflattering shade possible and that I would be stuck with it until it wore off and that I would have to foist the lipstick off on one of my make-up guru friends instead.It's almost like this lipstick knows me. As it developed after application, I kept an eye on it for a few minutes, and it was as if the lipstick just shut off at a good tone. I'm always worried about how my lips will look with bright colours, but even though this became rather bright, it still stayed a shade that looked flattering to my skin tone, and was easy to pair with even my normal unflattering clothing eg. a t-shirt, pair of jeans, and Converse (accompanied by messy in-need-of-re-dyeing hair).As for the staying power, the colour lasted for hours. I was able to eat two meals and a snack during the day, plus a few glasses of water before it had even faded slightly. If you find you like it, it is extremely good value for money if you drink a lot through the day or are on a night out. The lipstick itself did feel a little drying, but that can be fixed with some lip balm/vaseline.I'm not sure whether it would suit everyone, but for me, this has possibly been the best of the few beauty purchase I have made besides my red eyeshadows. I would most definitely buy this lipstick again, and urge everyone considering it to go find it in a shop and try it on at least once.

I've used this sort of lipsticks for years, by different manufacturers. I've sometimes had difficulty finding them, so I was delighted to discover Barry M! It's great! The green colour is just a ruse, it turns pink/red when you use it, but the really great thing is that it's indelible! Lasts for hours and you don't have to use much. What I normally do is to use a bit of this as a lip stain and then top it with a lip gloss or another non-indelible lipstick. It does look great just on it's own though.I LOVE lipstick!

It's a good lipstick. I got the Royal Raspberry and the colour of the red is almost like rich wine, it's a bold red, yet not too dark or bright.it is however, semi-matte. it is not completely matte because it has a moisturising agent in it that gives the lipstick, after application, a little bit of glint, as you would see when you moisturise your lipstick with something like vaseline. So I was slightly disappointed in it because I was going for the matte look (balming my lips beneath but wanting a full matte look). But never mind my slight hiccup, it is still a good lipstick and the colour last about 12 hours on my lips,

This product is VERY pale lavender. I found this on quite creamy to go on.(The first one of the same range I brought felt horrible, quite hard, even slightly gritty.) But I love Barry M so much I tried a different shade I wanted, and I am glad I did. I find it needs to be blotted and have another coat at least, and be blotted again to show 'nicely'.I felt other wise I felt it did not show enough.I also think that using a purple tinted lip gloss over the top would help remove some of the paleness-I found I HAD to do this with the orange one, or it looked to overpoweringly bright pale orange! I use MAC lipglass over the top and it looks divine. However, I would not wear the orange Barry M without a lipgloss to soften the look, and I WILL wear the Lavender with out it, its not quite as stark, so can be worn alone, if you like!But its a lovely shade. I love alot of his colours. I found also that buying it on Amazon was even cheaper than purchaseing it from Ebay or in Superdrug (I had free shipping tho!!)On the whole the only regret is that its not just a little darker in shade. It is pale and the photos are deceptive in the depth of colour, I feel. So go by the name of it; PALEST LAVENDER, cos it really is!! But I do not regret buying it at all.The price is quite nice too!

I did not expect this lipstick to be shimmery, but it is. Its not easy to see in the picture, and I wanted a dark red color, no shimmer or anything else. The color is fine, I just don't want the shimmer. Now that I know I do see it when I upscale the picture, but it would be nice that it was written in the description.I have used it a few times anyway, and it wears of very fast. I think its only on my lips when I walk out the door.I see others have written its long lasting, but not on my lips... I don't know why? :)Its a little creamy, and properly fine if you like the color and can make it last longer on the lips, but not sure I want to try a Barry M lipsticks again.

Amazing how something so small can bring such pleasure. My mother has loved Barry M lippy forever and when she could no longer find it in the local high street became quite despondent. Thankfully Amazon came to the rescue and she now has a steady stream of her favourite Lippy delivered to her door via the subscription service. Timed just right a new one arrives just before the old runs out, well done Amazon.The lip paint is, and I use my Mothers words here, simply the best Lip stick you can buy. It is a great all day wear and she is never with out it she uses it as a sun screen as well as a make up. She likes everything about it saying nothing else comes close to it for quality and colour. Easy to apply and easy to remove at bed time. She just loves it.

I bought one of these years ago in Morocco and when it was finished I couldn't get one anywhere! I "found" this online after a search and am thrilled with it. It is a different colour on different people, but on me it is a lovely deep pink. It stains your lips and moisturises them at the same time and you an keep applying lip gloss throughout the day. Survives eating and drinking and is a must for the summer!!

I love this lipstick by Barry m . Will continue buying this colour for ever.Thank you to the seller and Amazon

Da ich ein absoluter Fan von roten Lippenstiften bin und seit meinem 18 Geburtstag auf der Suche nach dem langanhaltenden und perfektem Ton bin, muss ich zugeben, dass dieser hier alle anderen schlägt. In meiner Lippenstiftschublade sind Rottöne in allen Preisklassen: von essence bis Chanel. Dieser hält am längsten (mit Essen + Trinken): ca. 3-4 Std. Ich merke ihn nicht auf meinen Lippen und er fühlt sich sogar sehr pflegend an - alles top! Ich empfehle SEHR: den "grünen" Lippenstift dieser Marke, der dann eine individuelle "Pinknote" auf den Lippen zaubert:) Der hält ewig - sogar am nächsten Tag hat man einen leichten, pinken Schatten auf den Lippen:)

perfetto per hallowen

the color is very bright. And it's a matte lipstick. Not for everyone, but I love it, especially when I'm going out at night.

Der Lippenstift ist cremig und liegt gut auf den Lippen, allerdings hält er nicht all zu lange und das finde ich schade. Trotzdem ein Highlight!

Ich bin begeistert und habe den Lippenstift schon Freundinnen empfohlen, die ihn bei mir gesehen hatten. Er passt sich echt gut dem Hautton an, nimmt bei mir z.B. ein kräftiges Pink an (mitteleuropäischer Hauttyp, eher hell). Bei einer Freundin, die einen etwas goldeneren Teint hat, entwickelt er einen etwas beerenfarbenen Ton. Zudem pflegt er meine Lippen noch und hält den ganzen Tag. Achtung: nicht kussecht, da sich die geküsste haut auch pink färbt und die Farbe echt gut hält
