I am loving the new fall colors, but I just can't with the formula of ABH liquid lipsticks. They never seem to dry down and set, even after a while it still feels tacky.. Anyone else experienced this? I have Pure Hollywood, Milk Shake, Baby Pink, Lovely, Spicy, American Doll and Bloodline from the first release and the finish all feel the same to me.. Has the formula been re-formulated? I've got my eyes on Trust Issues, Veronica, and both Sepia and Paint the most.. Kinda bummed they took off the pro discount on the site for these..
I think how many layers we use determines if it drys down or not... More layers = tacky Some colors need more than others, and ends up crumbling after a few hours

Their new Fall lipsticks have a new formulation. For me most of mine completely dry down except for Pure Hollywood and Bambi

Hi ladies! I think I remember seeing on here how to revive a dried up dipbrow? I went through a brow wiz phase and went through two but now I'm back to my dipbrow. It isn't that old at all but horribly dry and it ls crumbly and hard to apply sometimes. Is it salvageable?

You can't safely revive the entire container without inviting baterial growth. But you can try and scoop some out (enough for one use) and mix it with some of the various products on the market to try and soften it back up. But there are ways that I've found to ensure that it doesn't dry out in the first place. I'm able to use a full jar of gel-based products without them drying out at all. It's all in how use them while you have them.

Thanks for the tips! For my next jar, what would you recommend for trying to keep it from drying out as long as possble? I appreciate it!

I call it the Flip & Dip. Get what you need on the brush and then flip the jar upside down on the counter. Then if you need more on your brush, flip it back over, grab more, and flip it back up side. You never want to leave it exposed to air except for when you're getting product out of it. By flipping and dipping toure minimizing the air exposure, decreasing the dry out time. I can hit the bottom of the jar every time with this method without it drying out.

Same method I use (because putting the top on every time before I'm actually done using the product is a hassle lol). I can't recall the last product I've actually had dry out

I've got three liquid lipsticks in my cart - Sorbet, Craft, and Paint. I'm content with the first two but I feel like my only draw to Paint is that it's LE. I already have LA Splash Sirius which hasn't been touched other than to wear in my house but I like the slight shimmer Paint seems to have. I'm also iffy because I've heard such mixed things on this formula.

I have Paint and it is a bit different than Sirius. The shimmer is nice and gives it more dimension than Sirius. I have ABH lipsticks in the old and supposedly new formulas (I admit the newer products have a more liquidy texture than my old ones) and I have no problem comfortably wearing them with moisturized lips.

Thanks! :) ah I had 3 in my cart because I thought free shipping was over $50 but it's over $99. $10 shipping is insane. Will these turn up anywhere else?

So far they have not. I thought when these lipsticks made their debut that I heard they would be at Sephora within the year but they are still showing as a Macy's exclusive. The free shipping at $50 comes and goes often for beauty products. It will be back again.

Didn't think I'd like the new palette but it swatched nicely with primer on my hand. I picked it up! Can't wait to make some looks with it. :)
