Makeup, Beauty and More: Marc Jacobs Beauty Le Marc Lip Creme in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

The Le Marc Lip Cremes by Marc Jacobs are full coverage, creamy lipsticks that come in 20 gorgeous shades of mostly rosy pinks, reds and plummy neutrals. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is an opaque rosy pink that is wearable without being too bright.

The texture is smooth and the color is a little more pinker on my lips compared to how it looks in the tube. The creamy formula is quite hydrating, comfortable to wear and the satin matte finish reminds me of a slightly heavier version of Givenchy’s Le Rouge Lipstick formula. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is not too bright, but not an everyday neutral, but the color looks great when sheered out and topped off with a gloss as well. I applied it right from the tube and it covered my uneven lips in just one swipe. The formula wore a good 5 hours on me and faded to a light stain. It feels very quite light and did not dry out my lips, but don’t count on it to deliver an extra dose of moisture. I can’t speak for the other shades in the range, but Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is absolutely beautiful and the formula has made me want to try a couple of Marc Jacobs’ lip products again (lipsticks maybe), after my not so great experience with one of their Lust for Lacquer Lip Glosses.
