SWATCH + REVIEW FEATURING Skin Potions' Girl Gang Matte Liquid Lipstick ⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬ Packaging  : 5/5 Smell : 4/5 Application : 7/5 Comfort  : 7/5 Texture  : 7/5 Longevity  : 5/5 /VERDICT/ I want to start off with its packaging where the container is frosted plastic tube with the brand name imprinted on it. It has a pastel pink cap that matches the brand logo and a sticker at the bottom of the container where the shade is indicated. I find it really dainty and with its doe-foot applicator, i can fill my lips easily and accurately. The only thing i didn't like about this was the scent but is actually tolerable. I think it's just me since i don't like lychee and it smells like one. But at least it doesn't smell like crayons or rubber and scent is just a minor issue because the application of this is so smooth, like you're not applying anything! It's highly pigmented, so i just needed one swipe / layer and it l...

After a week of using this every nigh...
