I love cute little tubes of lipstick (heck, any lipstick really) so I was excited to get this little beauty in my March Ipsy bag.
Having never tried anything bareMinerals, it only added to the fun. Was it actually a fun experience?
Look and see!
BareMinerals has a line of lipsticks and lipglosses called Marvelous Moxie available where ever you get BareMinerals--Ulta, Sephora, boutiques, online, etc.
There are 18 colors in the lipstick range that go from cool purples, to nudes, and stoplight reds. They are suppose to be "creamy, super-saturated, ultra-pigmented" and "glide on like butter for full coverage in a rich satin finish."
In my Ipsy bag, I received the color Get Ready which is described as a warm, rosy, pink.

On me, it is an honest nude lip. It is extremely close in color to my natural lips.
As for wear, pigment, and all the important stuff--it is a highly pigmented lipstick that obviously does have a satin finish. It wore comfortably for 3 hours before my winter lips decided to start chapping again. It does glide on wonderfully smooth and give my lips a natural color and look.
At $18 a tube, it hits squarely in the prestige market. It is not as hydrating and forgiving on lips as my beloved Givenchy Le Rouge color, but for exactly half, excluding shipping, I think this line would be an excellent alternative. They do wear nearly the same, the only difference being the Givenchy is slightly more hydrating, plumping, and longer-wearing on the lips.
I do love my snazzy leather case my Givenchy comes in, but I think I will be a-okay getting two black click-cases for the price of one in the future.
I recieved my sample tube in my March Ipsy Subscription bag, but you can purchase Marvelous Moxie lipsticks for $18 at Ulta, the BareMinerals' site, or anywhere else BareMinerals is sold.
TL;DR--HYDRATING. CREAMY. PIGMENTED. IF GIVENCHY LE ROUGE IS TOO EXPENSIVE, THIS IS HALF THE PRICE.
