Patrick Ta She’s Confident & She’s Secure Silky Lip Crèmes Reviews & Swatches

She's Confident

Patrick Ta She’s Confident Monochrome Moment Silky Lip Crème ($24.00 for 0.23 oz.) is a medium-dark, pinky-peach with strong, warm undertones and a cream finish. It had nearly opaque color coverage in a single layer, which applied evenly and smoothly across my lips without emphasizing my lip lines.

The consistency felt lightweight, creamy and spreadable without being too thick. The formula has a slight set to it, where it is best to leave it alone for a few minutes, and then a gentle pressing of the lips takes it down to a more satin finish. It wore well for five hours and felt lightly hydrating over time.

Formula Overview

$24.00/0.23 oz. - $104.35 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have a "flexible, soft finish" that "never bleeds or smudges" with "intense color payoff." It is a liquid lipstick that doesn't fully dry down but has a more transfer-resistant finish, so while there might be a touch of product that comes off the first blot or two, eventually almost nothing transfers onto a glass. The formula definitely didn't bleed or feather on me.

The pigmentation was mostly opaque to fully opaque in a single layer, which applied fairly evenly and spread well across my lips. It doesn't have that clingy, full-on dry down of more matte liquid lipstick formulations, so it was more comfortable to wear and was lightly hydrating over time. The consistency was creamy, non-sticky, and smooth, and it lived up to the "flexible" claim. I would be careful to let it "set" for a few minutes prior to pressing lips together as if I did so, it could cause some lifting--you have some play time during the initial application but then wait a couple of minutes for it to do it's "soft set."

It had a sweet mint scent but I didn't notice any taste.

She's Secure

Patrick Ta She’s Secure Monochrome Moment Silky Lip Crème ($24.00 for 0.23 oz.) is a light-medium, pinky-coral with strong, warm undertones and a cream finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in one layer, but it could have applied a bit more evenly, especially around the edges. I found it wasn’t as easy to control for precise application as other shades in the range.

The consistency felt lightweight, lightly creamy, and was easy to work with to spread over my lips. There’s some play time after the initial application to smooth out the color and get it into place, but then you’ll want to wait two to three minutes before pressing your lips together otherwise it could lift up slightly along the inner area of the lips. It stayed on nicely for five hours and felt lightly moisturizing over time.
