Lip Swatch! - Wet n Wild Megalast Matte Lipstick - 966 - Don't Blink Pink

I swatched out 13 more Wet n Wild Megalast Lipsticks here.   Today is 966 - Don't Blink Pink!

This is an ULTRA bright hot pink color.  It looks a bit scary, but everyone that I have seen wearing it looks great!  You can sheer it out by putting a good layer of lip balm underneath it, like I did.  If you wear it without much lipbalm, prepare for it to be very, very, VERY intense... Intense, but amazing.  Seriously, I cannot recommend this color enough for Spring and Summer.  I don't have any color like it in my collection.  It is a cool-red-leaning-neutral, but it does it without going into fuchsia tones.  I think just about anyone could wear this, just be brave!

First, bare lips.  I prepped them with a thin application of Lansinoh.
Now, a thin layer, applied from the tube, in a single swipe.  I left half of my lips bare for comparison.
Now for what I would call full strength.  I applied directly from the tube.  Keep in mind that this is a matte formula, but it does go on creamy.  If you put some lip balm on your lips before applying it, the formula will remain a satin finish.  If you apply the lipstick without any balm, the finish will look matte, but will feel satin on your lips.  This color does intensify with a second coat. 
Next is full lip.  I applied directly from the tube to the bare side, and I put on about 2 coats.  This lipstick is very opaque when applied directly from the tube.  
Smile!

    1. With all the balm I had on (quite a bit) it lasted about 4 hours. With very little balm, it went 7 hours, and then another 3 hours with just a balm touch-up. The touch up was less intense, but still bright. :-)
