For someone who constantly has rough patches on lips, this product is a god-send. It helps lipstick stay on for hours longer than usual, especially with lustre lipstick - which has the habit of fading quickly.

I also tried it with a chromeglass and despite eating and drinking, at the end of the day, a lot of the product was very much still on my lips! It was only after 12 hours that only a hint of my lip colour remained and looked like it had mainly disappeared.

If you hate reapplying your lip product throughout the day - as I do - then I recommend trying this out for yourself. You won't be disappointed. I'm glad I picked it up below retail on eBay on a whim.

Would you buy this product again? Maybe.

Okay I love the texture of this it's very smooth and not greasy or sticky but I'm not sure it does what it says.
I don't find my lipstick or gloss stay on any longer than usual but it does help with any color bleeding over the border of the lips.

Would you buy this product again? No, I returned it an hour ago.

While this is a good product for making your lips smooth for an easy application (which I desperately need), it is equivalent to any dollar store lip balm. I compared it to my Bonnebell lip glosses, and there is truly no difference. Now I will pay $1 instead of $17 for a primer. Save your money, seriously. Oh, and it did not make my lip gloss stay any longer.

I'd been trying to get hold of this for ages, but everytime I tried to buy it, the counter were out! I finally got a hold of this when i bought Media l/s, and its fab. I wear it under all my lippies now and as long as you leave it to sink into your lips and go slightly tacky, it keeps my lippy on for ages!! I was wearing Dark Side at work the other day and only had to make 2 touch ups all day, and I did a 14 hour day!!

Absolutely brilliant when you get the hang of using it.

I'm a gloss girl myself, so when I heard about this I was a bit skeptical. But it works! It keeps lipgloss on for a long time and acts as a base. Lipgloss sometimes barely showed up on me but with this it puts the color of the gloss at the forefront and not the pigment of your lips. I also like that it smooths and fills in the lines in your lips so that it goes on easy and looks flawless. I highly recommend this for ladies who mostly wear gloss.

prep & prime enables me the option to actually wear lipstick! haha
without the primer I can't even put any lipstick on ... I've bought it several times now and it's a great prodcut for an easy application if your lips are dry!

I agree with a previous poster--- P+P lips not only feels like a balm (thus moisturizing feeling) but it does make my lipstick stay on, without that horrible feathering issue (at least that I've always had). It won't last all day, but the staying power it creates is worth the price, IMO. It helps to let it "set" a minute before applying lipstick.. I have found this helps the lipstick to last longer without disappearing so quickly.
