3INA The Longwear Lipstick Review and Swatches

3INA are new to the beauty world and have taken it by storm with their lip products. I’m here to talk about the 3INA The Longwear Lipsticks* today which are their answer to the matte liquid lipstick world. Matte liquid lipsticks are the most frequented lip product in both my lip collection and my daily routine and I barely wear anything else so these were a welcome addition to my collection and I was excited to try them out!

Packaging of the 3INA The Longwear Lipstick

Presented in a cardboard box, the 3INA The Longwear Lipstick has a black tube which is short but wide and rectangular which sets it apart from the usual long circular tubes. It has a clear bottom so you can see the shade colour inside and the brand adorned on the side in white. The applicator pulls out by unscrewing the top half (do not try and pull it like I did, you won’t get anywhere!)

Colours of the 3INA The Longwear Lipstick

I was sent three colours by 3INA to try, and I purchased one myself as I wanted an everyday nude (and I had to make up my order amount on ASOS to get free delivery, cos who would pay for delivery when you can get something else for the money?!). I have the shades: 503 a beige brown, 515 a metallic rose pink, 519 a deep berry purple and 518 a deep chestnut brown.

Application

It applies with a flat and fairly long doe foot applicator, with a short handle which makes it really easy to use. The applicator allows you to apply the product precisely, creating a crisp line along the lip line and fill in the rest neatly.

Formula

The formula of the 3INA The Longwear Lipstick is quite thin and runny in consistency because it’s a gloss to matte formula. This allows you to fill in your lips slower than others as it doesn’t set straight away. Give it 30 seconds to dry and it’s really comfortable on the lips you can barely tell it’s there.

Lasting Power

It lasts well after eating, but it did need a top up if you wanted it to look tip top again, although the state it was in you can get away with as it didn’t completely disappear. The re-application didn’t leave it feeling cakey or flakey at all which is a great feature.
