RATINGS
5-Must have!
4-Worth buying
3-It's alright but I can live without it
2-I don't recommend this
1-Waste of money! Stay away from this as 
it may cause you to have a bad bad day.

Not too many cons there! All the colors are bright and they all have a sheen to them. I would recommend using a lip liner of a similar shade for this lipsticks because they are very creamy and brighter colors look better with a crisp edge. I normally go for mattes in bright colors but I like these! I'm very impressed with their formula. Pink Pop and Brazen Berry I was a bit disappointed in however, those I needed to swipe quite a few times for these swatches because they would apply streaky. Fuchsia Flash and Hot Plum were gorgeous and applied opaque in 2 coats. Those two lasted longer on my lips than the other ones for me as well. I wore Fuchsia Flash for 8 hrs one day and there was no fading, not even in the corners. That surprised me considering these are very creamy lipsticks with a sheen. I rate this line of lipsticks a 5! Fuchsia Flash is probably my favorite and I got lots of compliments on it ♥
