    Lovely shade range, most leaning warm, but the formula was not for me. The shade I tried was Brigitte. I found that it really just sat there and never settled and melded with my lips. This lead to...

    I feel very meh about these lipsticks. The colors are gorgeous and the lipsticks are super creamy, but they slide around a lot and transfer easily. No staying power at all. I get why people like...

    The way it goes on the lips is unlike that of any other lipstick; it's so luscious and smooth and wet. It is opaque in one swipe; when I try applying a second layer it looked a bit too saturated. I...

    So I finally jumped on the Audacious bandwagon with the release of the shade Apoline, after I saw it on Temptalia. Absolutely gorgeous rich warm pink. And I don't like it. I wish I hadn't bought...

    I've tried three shades in this range, Natalie, grace and lana. All of which were of very poor texture and quality. The formula feels cheap and settles into lines of the lips bunching up and...

    I splurged on this in Anita because I wanted a warm pink color for summer. I love my Milani Rose Femme in the cooler weather, but it was a bit too mauvey and dark for summer. Anita is a dusty pink...

    I have these in Lana, Annabella and Audrey and they're pretty excellent. It's hard to justify the price though (they're around $40-something AUD) - you're going to really want to fall in love with...

    I have Bette, and I love it. It's a great dark red color, with a nice finish. The only qualm I have is that if you rub your lips together after applying, it can develop lines. But other than that,...
