   Had this for awhile and put it on when I was getting ready in a hurry for a party, the first thing I immediately noticed was that it made my teeth look… orange. Formula was really nice, but I couldn’t get over how gross it made my teeth look (they are not orange, lol). Threw it right in the trash bc I didn’t want to accidentally reach for it

   I bought this while out of state for a funeral and then I got it back home and its hard for me to wear because of when I bought it. The color is nice it reminds me more of MAC pink nouveau than candy yum yum maybe a bit pinker than pink nouveau but overall its ok I think im going to give it away though because the memories that go along with this are too much to deal with.

   This color is so amazing! It’s that pop of color that I need in my lipstick collection. It’s super girly and the bright! I’m usually a nude or neutral-lip color lover, but I wanted to break out of my mold for this spring/summer season. This way I can just make my lips the focal point and go easy on the eye makeup (liner and mascara!)

   I have seen swatches and a lot of descriptions say this is a bubble gum pink. On my coloring, I have darker lips (reddish) and very fair neutral (Asian) skin tone (I don’t tan!), and this looks more like a hot pink bordering a berry. It’s kinda hard to describe (but I posted a photo so I hope that helps!) This color makes my teeth look white! I had the Don’t Blink Pink (Megalast line), but that color registered too red on me. The Penthouse Sweet is the perfect pop of medium pink. It’s not subtle, but not so neon that I feel that uncomfortable wearing it either. I think this color will go with many complexions and I think it will read very differently depending on your complexion and natural lip color. Just try it, the worst that can happen is that you will have to return it (which I highly doubt!)

   The formula is so comfortable and doesn’t feel heavy. Although I always like to apply lip balm, it is comfortable without as well (I just tried it!) It has a satin cream finish with no frost. The application is smooth with no drag. It is very pigmented but not drying.

   I’m not a fan of the packaging. Once again, the bullet doesn’t retract all the way down. It is silver with a clear plastic cap. It does the job, but no frills. I don’t really care as it’s super cheap (retail is around $3.50 but I purchased it on sale for $2.50!) and the actual lipstick is quality, which is all I care about!

   This does remind me of MAC Candy Yum Yum!! I don’t think I’d wear the MAC enough to justify paying US$15 for that sort of color, but I love Penthouse Sweet & it’s in my budget!! Good quality, pretty color, easily obtained at most Walgreens. I will repurchase but it may take me awhile to use this up…. WnW VIPink is similar to me.

   Got this at Walgreens earlier in the week during a bogo sale.

   *This color is a really pretty barbie pink!! (decently pigmented) and really reminds me of MAC’s Candy Yum Yum

   *The formula is decently moisturizing…you can actually wear it alone w/out a balm underneath if you wanted. Lips don’t feel dried out.

   *No bleeding or feathering..it stays very well.

   *Its semi long wearing….if you leave it alone your ok but if your eating or drinking you will have to reapply.

   I usually put a light shimmer gloss over this and its perfection!!!!!

   I’m impressed so far with the Fergie lipsticks and would totally repurchase!

   I don’t think I will need to repurchase Candy Yum Yum anymore!!

   I will be purchasing a few more tubes for back up!! (I love it that much!!!)
