I picked up the Sephora Cream Lip Stain Set ($12.00) recently, remembering the full-sized version I picked up and loved. The set comes with four tiny minis.

My skin type
My lips are relatively dry. I use lip balm numerous times daily, especially before liquid lipstick application.
How I use it
There are four colors in the set: Always Red, Vintage Rosewood, Nude Blush, and Blackberry Sorbet. All of them go on opaque.
What I like about it
They are vibrant and have the same formula as the full-sized version. While tiny, the set allows you to try four different shades at a very reasonable price. All shades I didn’t own so a plus on that. I can totally see myself running out of these as they are very every day wearable and also really small. My favorites are Vintage Rosewood and Blackberry Sorbet. Always Red is bright and vibrant but I felt it could use a lip liner for preciseness.
What could be better
These are tiny but they are also $12 for four of them bringing them to $3 each so I cannot cannot cannot complain! I do wish that beige color was more wearable for me on its own. I will always have to mix it with something else in order to use it. I did really like the way it looked mixed with a darker shade so it won’t be hard to use.
Joy Factor
This was a good buy for me. It’s on my bathroom vanity for easy reaching.

You didn't really give much feedback on the formula. Were they drying? Moisturizing?

Hi Lisa,
These are very comfortable liquid lipsticks. I did link to the review on the full-sized one that I previously purchased at the very beginning of the post, which has all those details. In case you didn't click on it, here you go: https://www.bellanoirbeauty.com/2017/04/the-sephora-collection-cream-lip-stains.html
The formula is outstanding.
