Gabriel Cosmetics Lipstick Meritage Full Bodied Wine Cream

About 5 years ago, I began to develop an allergic reaction to lipstick. I began to experience fine bumps and mild discomfort on my lower lip forcing me to just use products like vaseline or chapstick. Every 6 - 8 months, I try a new brand of lip gloss and lipstick that claims to be good for sensitive lips, but by the 3rd day my lip would break out. After taking another 6 month break, I decided to try this brand. I am only on day 3, but I am happy to report that I am feeling no signs of irritation. I love the color. It comes on very rich. It is almost matte like, so I am not finding that it is very moisterizing. The color stays put for hours with limited eating and drinking. I am hoping that my sensitive lips continue to behave. I truly miss wearing lipstick and would love to try more colors. I am feeling very hopeful about this product because all of the others that I have tried caused problems right away.

This is the worst lipstick ever! I've purchased better stuff at the 99 Cent store. The only positive here is the color, after that it's all downhill. It is not moisturizing in any way. As a matter of fact, it seems to dry out my lips. Additionally, it also makes a mess by rubbing off on everything, plus the color bleeds out from the lips onto the surrounding skin. For the ridiculous price of $19.35 for a product of such low quality, my disappointment was exponential!

Disliked lack of creamy texture. It has more of chalky feel to lips. I do love the long lasting color and no need to continue to re-apply lipstick. Color is fabulous with my skin tone. Also, I have not had an allergic reaction compared to other brands of lipstick.

love love love this lipstick. I have extremely sensitive lips and break out from everything red or burgundy. If your looking for lipstick that does not irate your lips , look no further. Thus is the one.

I love this although it is less plum and more pink, it still looks super nice on my skin tone and brightens me up. I kept it since it does look and feel awesome.
