My Thoughts :

This little lipstick trio comes 3 different shades .I got mine in Scarlet which has 3 pans of beautifully complimenting colors, a Bright Fuchsia, a light fresh Pink and a Coral. The packaging is quite  basic with a clear lid and a sort of push button to unlock it which is a good point because you dont have to worry about it opening in your purse and making a mess. The packaging is not much sturdy and might break on heavy impact to better take care of it . It comes with a double end sponge applicator with one end as broad eye applicator and other pointed one. Though the applicator is kind of useless , I am still trying to make it work somehow. 

The colors are nicely pigmented. They show up a little lighter then the pan on lips but can be easily layered up to get more color. One swipe is enough to cover both lips nicely. The finish is glossy just like lip glosses (that's what the product claims to do). in staying power is just average , not something like a stain would last a good 4-5 hours without eating and 2-3 hours with eating. This hardly lasts 2-3 hours on me without eating and vanishes after eating so I need to touch up after each munching. But for a person like me who carries just one lippie or gloss in her bag just for the sake of not rummaging when need be, this is a perfect thing to carry and touch up .

Rating:

I would give it a 3/5 . Only if it had a useful applicator and a longer staying power it would definilty be in my favorites list !
