I want to know this too! I even emailed Smashbox but got no reply. There is NO way that model is wearing Legendary, which is a true, bright red. The model is wearing more of a pinky, mauvey shade. I love it, just wish someone could find out what it really is.

Legendary is a true red, a blue-based red. It flatters any complexion.

Legendary if you want a true red, Grenadine is a bit more pink/berry.

No, for me this lipstick has so scent. I am *very* picky with the products I can use on my lips so I was happy to discover this doesn't taste or smell like anything.

There is no overbearing scent. It smells like most lipsticks to me. There is a slight scent but not one you can tell when you have it on.

Question

Which colors are shimmery?

I've seen pictures of some of these lipsticks on smashbox's own site, and some of them clearly have shimmer in them, but their site does not mention which colors have shimmer in their descriptions, and here on Sephora none of them do either, and only one "swatch" looks like it's intended to indicate shimmer.

Anybody know which of the colors are the ones w/shimmer in them?

Thanks!

Question

How would you rate this lipstick?

I'm looking into buying this, so I have just a few questions. How would you rate this lipstick on a scale of 1-5:

creamy-ness: 1 being poor/dry, 5 being super creamy/comfortable
Staying power: Does the color last throughout the day? 1 being no/poorly, 5 being yes, lasts all day.
Color: 1 being bad shades of color, 5 being gorgeous shades of color.

thanks!

I would rate this lipstick as a 3.5 on creaminess. It's very comfortable, but is not as creamy or gooey as a lip gloss. 3 on staying power (it won't last through eating), and a 5 for the color.

Creamy-ness: 4
Staying power: 5 (With reasonable amount of eating/drinking)
Color: 5

I got it in Mandarin and already want a couple more. I recommend this lipstick!

This or MUFE???

Please give me your feedback! I really want to get a fuschia lipstick and am trying to decide btwn Be Legendary and MUFE's Rouge Artist Natural. Both of them have great reviews and seem to swatch nicely and smell good.

Hello,

I think that they are both pigmented but the MUFE Rouge Artist has a richer formula and better staying power. The other line has a lighter formula which is nice but you will have to reapply relatively often to maintain the color.

Hope this helped. Happy lipstick hunting :)

If you are coffee coloured that means you have a better/greater range of colour you can wear. Try Smashbox Be Legendary in coral. Reds/corals/pinks will look great with your skin tone and will give you that extra pop. ;)

As far as wearing a glossy finish or matte finish on a daily basis, it really just comes down to personal preference. If you like a shine or not
