Jordana Lip Out Loud Super Shiny Gloss in BFF

Jordana LOL Lip Out Loud Super Shiny Gloss in BFF ($1.99) was a recent impulse purchase at Walgreens (Even though the sale just made it cheaper by a few dimes, the display was just too geographically tempting, locating right at the cosmetic check out counter). The watermelon-scented gloss comes in a light plastic tube (with words that are very scratch prone), housing 2.43g of products.

The texture of the Lip Out Loud gloss is nothing unique, a little tacky and not too long-lasting. The slender, bouncy applicator is easy to maneuver but not too absorbent, I needed several re-dips to gunk up enough product for a jelly-like finish.

Revlon Sweetheart Balm Stain, Jordana BFF, Revlon Power Walk Pink, Pink Pop, Milani Strawberry Parfait. The only thing that stops BFF from being fuchsia is the sheer pigmentation (that's somewhat difficult to build up and fades down rather quickly) but it's still a juicy shade to match your summer tan or apply on top of a bright pink lipstick.

 Jordana Lip Out Loud Super Shiny Gloss in BFF - Freshly (and thickly) applied. The shine dies down within 10-20 minutes and leaves an even bright pink tint (that's still easily wiped off). Overall: Despite the wear time and need to layer and layer, it's a decent product for 2 dollars (I mean, what do you expect for this little?) and surprisingly, I can't seem to find a dupe for this particular finish and shade. 

If you want something bolder and longer-lasting, Physicians Formula pH Matchmaker lip gloss in light pink is the closest thing I have tried (The shimmer in that is negligible but it does turn very fuchsia and opaque on me over time).
