    I’m glad you got a cosmetic chemist for this, when I first saw the title I legit thought it was going to be some random influencer who had declared themselves a lipstick expert.

      @@totesflaisch My favorite line is the Sensai Intense Lasting Lipsticks. They are very hydrating (I use them daily in the winter, living in the North), but don't slip around or bleed. Most of them are also quite buildable: sheer if swiped once or twice, and full coverage after 2-3 swipes. Leave behind a nice, light stain that can be removed easily using makeup remover :)

    SATIN FINISH LIPSTICK:
    Sample A ($34): Pretty sure this is a Laura Mercier Rouge Essentiel Silky Cream Lipstick.
    Sample B ($9): Pretty sure this is an ULTA Beauty Collection Luxe Lipstick.
    MOUSSE LIP CREAM:
    Sample A is NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream ($6.50)
    Sample B is MAC Powder Kiss Liquid Lipcolour ($26)
    MATTE LIQUID LIPSTICK:
    Sample A is Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Lipstick ($20)
    Sample B is NYX Professional Makeup Lip Lingerie XXL Matte Liquid Lipstick ($10)
    GLOSS FINISH LIPSTICK:
    Sample A is Dior Addict Refillable Shine Lipstick ($42)
    Sample B is Urban Decay Vice Hydrating Lipstick in the high shine finish ($19). L’Oreal Paris Colour Riche Shine Lipstick is a very similar product.
    CLASSIC RED LIPSTICK:
    Sample A ($8): This is NYX Suede Matte Lipstick in Spicy.
    Sample B ($21): Likely MAC Retro Matte Lipstick. Agree with other comment that it looks like Ruby Woo.
    Edited to add that identification made off ingredient lists when possible. It's unfortunate that Allure didn't fully blind the packaging of solid lipsticks but this did help finding products when ingredients weren't given.
    Additional edit to correct the Urban Decay product.

    Could they put the name of the products and a disclaimer in the description?

    Nice techniques used and nice comparisons.Smart check-out in the ingredients.If expensive or cheap ,I liked all colors and their pigmentation ,they were very intense and vivid and this is what I like in swatches.

    I hope you can make more of these! I’m sick of the BS adverts with ‘pore minimising technology’ or ‘lash lift technology’. No, give me the science not the marketing copy. Women are not dumb consumers.
