Lipstick Queen Sinner Collection

Lipstick Queen Sinner Collection retails for $24 at both Ulta and Lipstick Queen Website, both will the linked on the bottom. The product is good but I don't think it is worth the $24. You can get other lipsticks that works just as well for a cheaper price. Comparisons will be on the bottom. 

The logistics:

You get 0.12 oz of product in one tube of lipstick. The brand is cruelty free and gluten free. The collection has 20 shades. On Ulta's website only 18 of the shades are available, on the official lipstick queen website all 20 shades are available. I own the shade Bright Natural Sinner and Nude Sinner. 

Its Claims (I got this straight from Lipstick Queen website):

• Each Sinner shade is also available in the Saint formulation with 10% pigment for a gorgeous tint of color.
• Matte opaque lipstick with 90% pigment
• Moisturizing and long-lasting dramatic color
• Fragrance and shimmer free
• The glamorous look of the Golden Years of Hollywood but with modern comfort and technology

My Thoughts:

• I totally agree that the lipsticks are opaque. They glide on smoothly and doesn't get patchy or crumble as you continue to wear the lipstick. 
• The lipstick is moisturizing and long lasting. I wore the lipstick for around 7 hours. My lips were never dry and the color remained without reapplication for 7hrs. I even ate dinner with it on and I didn't feel the need to reapply. For dinner I had macaroni salad and a bagel, so not must of a greasy dinner but still eating was involved. They also stay within the lip line. 
• The lipstick has a sweet play doughy scent. Given that I smelled it straight from the tube. When you apply it to your lips there is no scent. The lipsticks have no shimmer in it; completely matte. 
• The packaging for it is perfect. The case is glossy but matte at the same time. Very slick and modern and classy. Something to display on your vanity for sure. The case is blue with purple duochrome to it. 

Overall the product is great. If you can justify the price then go for it. The lipstick has everything you could want all in one, but it is one of the more expensive lipsticks.

Comparisons (All prices are Ulta's): 

• Butter London LIPPY Moisture Matte Lipstick retails for $22 and you get 0.14 oz. This gives you mostly the same things as the Lipstick Queens. From the pigmentation to the lasting power to comfort the lips. The only thing is that this range only has 12 shades instead of the 18-20 shades given in the Lipstick Queen Sinner Collection. 
• NYX Matte Lipsticks retails for $5.99 and you get 0.16 oz. They are a bit dryer but they give you the pigmentation and lasting power like Lipstick Queen. 
• NYX Round Case Lipsticks retails for $3.99 and you get 0.14 oz. They are not matte but they give the comfort that is given by Lipsticks Queen. Unfortunately they do not have the same lasting power and they do smear out of the lines a bit. But you do get them so much cheaper. 
• If you are looking for something that has pigmentation and lasting power I would recommend liquid lipsticks. Anastasia Beverly Hills carry incredible ones, Stila Stay all day, Tarte Tartiest. The liquid lipsticks are going to be a bit dryer but they do stay on longer.
