COVERGIRL blastflipstick Review

It's two lipsticks in one, allowing you to mix and match or just leave be for a wide variety of color options. Each flipstick contains two expertly matched shades; one is creamy while the other is a shimmery color. COVERGIRL has made a total of 13 of these matched shades, but your possibilities are seemingly endless. (Okay... so maybe it's a hundred or so, but endless sounds so much better.)

As a BzzAgent I received the pleasure of receiving three of these flipsticks for free. I received:

Stunner
Vixen

And Minx

Each flipstick is estimated to sell for around $8.49 in store (not bad for two colors) and can be found in major retailers (such as Walmart), most grocery stores and drug stores.

My thoughts:
First off, I did tend to use chapstick before applying because for me at least, the color starts to crack along with my lips after awhile. I always have terribly dry and chapped lips during the winter so maybe this is just entirely on me.
The colors ARE long lasting. It's okay for all day wear, but you may need to reapply when it fades a bit. If you're just wearing it for a night out, however, you should be good. 
I personally felt as thought only a few of the colors could I wear alone. Most of the time I ended up blending or highlighting because it just left me feeling like it was lacking some "pizzazz". The golden like end of Stunner was one of the main ones I was okay with wearing by itself, but not as a daytime color.
I feel as though the main way you'll end up pleased with the results is if you manage to find colors that work well for you. I, for example, can't really work a blended Vixen and I haven't even touched Minx yet because I know it's way too dark for me.
