Most Helpful Positive Review Bulletproof! I have Fetish, which looks like a warmish plum on my lips with a whisper of brown undertone. It works for me because my lips are fairly pigmented and blue. I don't find Fetish to be too vampy against my very fair (Ivory PurePressed) skin, and it's a great color for Autumn. I swatched the Plum side on the back of my hand at first morning light and completely forgot about it. I showered, and went to work, and only noticed at the office that the tiny swatch was still on my hand, completely undisturbed! I had to gently scrape at my skin with a fingernail to remove the color (an oil-based product would be ideal), so I felt confident the color would last all day on my lips, and it did, for 12+ hours. That's impressive! And the stain did not dry my lips, though I occasionally applied a clear balm on top a couple times throughout the day.
I'm not lip gloss fan, so I will likely ignore that side of the double tube. The lilac tint did nothing discernible to enhance the color of the stain, other than make it shiny, which is a finish I don't care for. If your lip pigment is light, the lilac gloss could be a pretty shade on its own.
I have previously purchased mineral lip products in tubes, and I don't love the packaging because it can be challenging to use up the last bits. I'll probably snap the cotton tip off a swab and use the beheaded stick to swirl around inside the tube to pull out more pigment. I also have a slender stainless thingy (designed to pick up loose powder) that fits inside, so I can scrape around with that and transfer the lip stain into one of the empty JI sample pots. I'd love to see Jane Iredale offer just the stain in a squishy tube, similar to the Longest Lash Lengthening & Thickening Mascara tube. Or maybe offer it in a tiny jar?
Although it seems pricey to use just one side, there is literally NO reapplication with this product. I can put it on on the morning and enjoy it all day, even after eating a salad with an oil-based vinaigrette. I still prefer traditional lipstick in the tube, but I am glad I tried the Lip Fixation.
Most Helpful Critical Review Great product but inefficient packaging After purchasing this product in four combinations I used every smidgen I could eek out of the container and then, despite really, really liking the product I swore off of it forever, or at least until they improve the packaging.
The product is especially long lasting if you follow the tips to let the stain dry before applying the gloss. I found the gloss needed to be reapplied during the day (or use some Chapstick if that's what you have with you) but the stain, some colors more so than others, lasted til it was washed off.
I never had any problem with leaky tubes, but I never carried it around in my purse. My decision not to purchase it again is based on not being able to use all the product because the rigid container and applicator aren't configured to allow access to a significant portion of the product. You can see it sitting in there, but you can't get to it. The waste makes it overly costly. A soft, pliable plastic would be a more appropriate packaging material for this otherwise terrific product.

This lip stain is my absolute go-to. Lovely color and lasts a long time. The only con is the high price point, but the product does last a long time.

Very Very Nice Lip Stain 5

I love Lip Fixation, especially the color Fascination. I am very pale with strawberry blonde hair, so "Fascination" is a real nice color for me. Lip Fixation stays on for a long time. I do not use the gloss end because I like a slightly matte finish and not into a sparkly finish at my age (70's).

I purchased Fascination, lovely colors with a soft vanilla flavor. So much nicer than other brands I've tried, which smelled like plastic or other chemical odor.

Love how lasting this lip fixation is! You can use just the fixation for a light sheer look or add the gloss however you like!

Lorieschu from Libertyville, il
Jane iredale has really helped me with color choice. The combo of these two colors looks fantastic with my medium skin tone, blue eyes and blonde hair. Not too dark, not too light. The perfect natural warm color!

Drys nice, put on lipgloss. This seemed to bleed with the gloss on top.
This product is ok 3

I ordered this product because I love a duo, but these are really drying and the applicator for the gloss side is so weird. I would not recommend or buy again.
Beautiful and natural colors, and lasts forever! 5
Diana from Nc
I always have trouble with lipstick disappearing almost as soon as I apply it, but this product is fantastic. The tint stays on, and such natural and rich color hues. I loved it so much, I bought 2 more!
Luscious and Long-lasting 5
Ally Murphy from Rochester, NH
The color is like a dark nude/terra-cotta, I guess. Hard to explain, but looks so natural while still giving color to your face. I feel like I look dead without something on my lips. It's also really creamy and dried quickly (not rapid-fast). It lasts my full work day, which is 9 hours.

My sister told me about Lip Fixation. I ordered the Fascination shade. Love it for everyday. Then I ordered Raptured. I was a little hesitant because I am 60 but it's perfect and love wearing it
