🔎 Bullet Lipstick Review & Wear Test 🧐 #nofilter #noedits
Lipstick Brand & Title: Pat McGrath Labs LuxeTrance Lipstick
Price: $38.00 (sale for $12.00)
Shade: available in 31 shades – mine is in ‘Madame Greige/424’
Fragrance: no fragrance
Type: 15 finish types, mine is in a ‘cream finish’.
Claims: hydrating & protecting
Component Description: black & gold tube, w/ a set of lips at closure, twist-up, lightweight
Style: 0.14 ounces, made in Italy, unclear about cruelty-free status, no vegan claims
Rules: no pre-hydrating balm/primer, no lip liner to affect wear time, dual-coat application, no gloss on top, no touch-ups, normal eating & drinking routine
⭐ Initial Application: creamy, filled in lip lines, glided on smoothly, bold, rich color pigment, not sticky, hydrating
🕐 1-Hour Mark: color is still vibrant, no wear-off, still feels hydrating
🕑 2-Hour Mark: looks very natural now, the extreme overly-pigmented saturation has worn away, the hydrated feel is still there, no wearing-off in any places
🕓 4-Hour Mark: starting to show some wear on bottom lip, inner rim still looks good, feels dry on my lips now
🕔 5-Hour Mark: the inner rim is starting to show, now – recommend reapplication
🧼 Removal: lip scrub, wiped off remainder
🤓 Final Thoughts: for a bullet lipstick, this lasted a long time without reapplying. I don’t think it’s worth $40, but definitely a steal on sale. Smooth, creamy, & hydrating – all claims are true. It didn’t get on my teeth, but it’s not transfer-proof. Great for everyday/events.

Thanks for the review!
> normal eating & drinking routine
Could you elaborate on this? Did you eat/drink at all? Did you talk a lot while wearing it?
I think this could be improved by making sure the lighting stays consistent and including what ‘normal eating and drinking’ means.
