The Ciaté Patent Pout Lip Lacquers are described as a long-lasting, color rich lip lacquer that has the ease of a lipgloss and the look of a high shine lipstick. In my opinion they’re the sister of the liquid lipstick but instead of matte they have a super glossy finish.
The line has 8 available shades with one of them having a shimmery finish and the rest have a high shine finish. The shades in the line are:
Canoodle (nude with a shimmer finish)
Air Kiss (light pink)
Bombshell (red)
Abracadabra (purple)
Drama Queen (fuchsia)
La La Land (fuchsia rose)
Bee’s Knees (watermelon)
High Five (orange)
The formula of the Ciaté Patent Pout Lip Lacquers has a lot of pigment, you can achieve full impact lips just with one swipe. The doe foot applicator is pointed which makes it easy to do precise lines so I sometimes even skip lining my lips when I wear these. They have a slight sweet smell which goes away after application and doesn’t feel overpowering. The consistency is sticky which prevents them to bleed and also adds to the lasting power, they’re very long lasting on the lips and also feel moisturizing through the day.
My favorite shades from the line are Abracadabra described as a purple but on my lips is more of a berry shade which is perfect for fall. Another great shade and my favorite is High Five, I just love a good orange lip especially for summer. The nude shade in the line, Canoodle was too light for my taste but I bet lighter skin tones would love it. The red shade in Bombshell is also a nice option if you’re looking for a good cool toned red with a glossy finish.

If you’re looking for a long lasting lip product that’s also glossy and packs a good pigment the Ciaté Patent Pout Lip Lacquers are a nice option. Just have in mind that they’re on the sticky side which I don’t mind but if you’re not a fan of slight stickiness you’re not going to like these.
The Ciaté Patent Pout Lip Lacquers are available at Sephora and us.ciatelondon.com and they’re priced at $18.
