Hourglass Femme Nude Lip Stylo Review

Hourglass Femme Nude Lip Stylo Review

A while back I picked up the Hourglass Femme Nude Lip Stylo in Nude No. 5 Golden Peach to review. This is the type of nude color that I really like, and I think it’s especially flattering on redheads.

My Thoughts

While I really really love the color of this lipstick, I was disappointed in the wear time. It wore off very quickly for me. I noticed major wear after only an hour. After 2 hours (which did include drinking water), I needed to reapply. After loving the Hourglass Opaque Rouge Liquid Lipsticks, I expected that I would love the Femme Nude Lip Stylos too.

I don’t know if I got a bad lip stylo, or if it’s the formula for this particular product line. It’s too bad, because I think the color is gorgeous, but with the $30 price tag I expected it to be longer wearing.

I personally say you should skip this one, unless you really love the color. I’m kind of kicking myself for not returning it to Sephora for a refund. I wish this shade was available in the Opaque Rouge Liquid Lipstick formula.

  1. I wonder if the shimmer in this particular shade made it where off more quickly than other shades. I would expect longer wear time from Hourglass especially considering the wear time from the Femme Rouge lipsticks. Too bad this one wasn’t great.
