I probably own more frosts than anything else, but I like satins the best, I think. I just wish they released more of them! I almost always wear a frosty eye, so a lot of times I just want a more matte lip, and satins do that without being too drying.

I own mostly frosts and love them, but I adore the Glaze finish. I just love how it feels and looks, and unfortuately, they don't make many glazes

My favorite is Amplified Cream (I neeeeeeeed more of these!) - they are so rich in color and creamy. I have lots of Lustres and they're pretty nice (they feel smooth, but aren't very pigmented). I have quite a few of the Frosts too, for some reason I avoid them - they have a slightly rougher texture to them and color payoff is adequate. But if you pack too much on, you get weird frosted old lady lips (best way I can describe the effect). I also have a couple of Mattes. I didn't think I'd care for them at all, as I have somewhat dry lips. They're actually really nice, because the color payoff is excellent and they don't dry out my lips any further. The worst thing about the mattes is that they don't go on easy - it's like rubbing a rock against your lips...

I have just about all the finishes except for matte. I'm looking to get more amplified cremes - I absolutely adore Dense!

About Lovemate - I love the color but it has a very gritty finish on me. I guess I could use a matching gloss to soften it up a bit.

I like the glazes the best. My faves are Vinyl (discontinued) and Hot Tahiti.

I wish they made more. In richer colors.

all time fave - amplified creme - because they feel so great on my lips I don't even need gloss on top adn have great pigmentation. Other than that - Lustre's feel really good, but don't last and Matte's aer good for really pigmented colors, but dry out my lips.

Frosts! I'd say 3/4 of my lipsticks are some form or pink frost... UGh, why can't I stay away from them? :confused:

Lustres mainly, frosts with lip balm as base so they aren't so frosty. Amplified cremes on occasion. I'm a lipglass/lustreglass lover deep down

What is your favorite Lipstick Finish?

LIPSTICK FINISHES

AMPLIFIED CRÈME
Ultra-creamy. Quietly shiny. Colour-packed! Hi-res: hi-impact.

FROST
Excellent colour payoff with medium to high frosted shimmer-and-shine finish.

GLAZE
Low-colour impact with sheen-style finish. Glazes the lips, makes them shine!

LUSTRE
Demi-sheer with wet-look lustre finish. Very slick. Makes lips look soft, smooth, ultra-moist.

MATTE
Pigment rich with intense colour pay-off. No-shine, all matte finish.

SATIN
Colour-rich. Soft satin, semi-matte finish. Conditions while adding intense colour.

SHEER
Colour-light with sheer, near-translucent, naturally-tinted finish.


Mine is Lustre, and Amplified is second.

i love the lustres because they feel like gloss and i never feel clownish or like i'm wearing too much.

i love the amplified cremes because a little really goes a long way and they look great lightly applied with other lip products (fav combination right now is Deep In Love l/s (le) with wildly lush plushglass under it)

I like Lustres!
I love the effect that Frosts have when you smile because you can see all the pretty shimmer, but if you don't smile, it enhances the wrinkles on my lips which looks horrible. :/
