Collection Intense Shine Number 4 Gel Lipstick, Mulberry Burst

My signature lippy

Good colour and lipstick gives nice shine without being too much.I have fair skin and blonde hair and this colour suits my complexion and hair colouring.

Got this for my wife, and she's happy with the colour shade, and says that it goes on well.However, it doesn't last as well as some other brands she's used, so she didn't consider it worthy of 5 stars. It's not the most expensive though, and for the period that it is on, it looks good.

Thank goodness for Amazon! I can’t get my lipstick in a certain shop anymore so i’m very relieved to be able to buy it on here. The colour is just perfect for me and lasts all day.

I bought several , love the colour, and nice even application , and if you take the top off the lid , you actually get more in there to use , handy to know ! Handy to take out with you without carrying the full lipstick , use your finger tip to apply it ...there are several flattering shades. I gave one to my work colleague , loves it

For the price I paid, I love it

I wouldn’t normally give Collection items a try but I did really like the colour of this one. It’s very much like a lipstick – very well pigmented but on its own doesn’t actually have a huge shine to it. For some reason they forget to mention that there is a little pigmented gel pot attached to the lid which you need to apply on top of the lipstick for that intense shine. I quickly found though that this really needs a lip liner under it because it will bleed easily. It also transfers too easily which means you do have to reapply after eating, drinking or even licking you lips – it’s definitely not long lasting. Using just the bullet, I found it a little drying on my lips whereas after applying the gel it fared a bit better but I’d recommend making sure your lips are moisturised before applying. A huge downside to the gel pot is it’s not solid – it is very thick though so something you are better applying with a brush rather than your fingers unless you can wash them quickly as it can stain a bit. If you’re well prepared with this one, I would recommend it (moisturised lips, ready to reapply often, can wash or wipe hands after using the pot). It is a lot of effort though without much reward when it disappears quickly.

A nice lipstick which is a super colour, texture is good and it lasts reasonably well too plus it doesn't cost the earth and is cruelty free☺
