Product Review: Sephora Brand Lip Last

If you haven't noticed, Sephora is rolling out their own line of professional-type tools, designed to help make your products last longer. I think most of the Sephora brand items are pretty good, especially given the price point, so I was excited to grab the Sephora Brand Lip Last. I'm always looking for something to make my lipstick last a bit longer.

The Sephora Brand Lip Last works pretty well. I'd say it keeps my lipstick on about twice as long as it would usually stay, but not as long as a lip stain would last. The downside? It's really drying on the lips. In fact, when you apply it with the brush, it smells like straight up alcohol. I'm assuming that by drying the lipstick out, it enables it to last longer than usual. But it dries out your lips too! Putting a gloss on once the product has dried may be an option, but then I notice the lipstick not lasting as long.

Bottom line? Works great, for what it's supposed to do. However, if your lips are already dry, I'd avoid this one like the plague.
