Products:
These lipsticks are very glossily in the finish for a cream texture formula. They do honestly remind me of the MAC cremesheen formula with their semi-opaque colour but also the tenacity t gather in my lip lines without a primer. This isn't that noticeable in person but yes.... in close up it's hard not to notice. I still like the those as the keep their shiny appearance and colour longer than any lip gloss or Glaze formula lipstick so It the best of both worlds.

Colour: 
Snow Cap is a warm light nude with a subtle pink undertone and a sheer creme finish.
Lollies is a vibrant light orange/peach with a sheer creme finish.
Candy Buttons is a vibrant light coral peach/pink with a sheer creme finish.
Taffy is a hot blue based pink with a sheer creme finish.


Rimmel 300 Viva Violet is a sheer deep magenta shade. The finish is a balm like a cushion on the lips.

Milani 20 Uptown Mauve is a semi-opaque rich fuchsia shade. The finish is more like a creme on the lips.

Revlon 850 Plum Velour is a very sheer berry glaze. It doesn't leave much product on the lips as I more like a gloss than a lipstick.

Wet N Wild 908C Sugar Plum Fairy is a semi-matte opaque merlot wine shade. This formula dries down to a more matte finish after an hour or so.

Milani 21 Sangria is a slight sheer wine shade. The finish is more like a creme on t he lips.

Wear:
These lipstick shades all last about 3-5 hours for me before touching them up.

Packaging:

The Rimmel Color Rush Balm as a twist up lipstick packaging, the rest are forms of the lipstick bullet packing.

Flash Swatches: Candy Buttons, Ever Hip, Lollies, and Sweet &Sour

Candy Buttons on top and Ever Hip on the bottom

Lollies on top and Sweet & Sour on the bottom

Candy Buttons is a much pinker and lighter version of MAC's Ever Hip

Lollies is a pinker and less orange version of MAC's Sweet &Sour.

Verdict:

Again I do like this formula but it also seems the darker and less pale shade do better at not settling noticeably into the lip lines.... But MAC has the same problem with pale shades of their Cremesheen formula as well it just the nature of these products.
