Review: Sealed with a Kiss Lipstick Fixative

Hey guys! I was at a local Sally's Beauty Supply and this product was so interesting and unique and for $4.99 I thought it'd be interesting to try.

The claims: 

"Makes lipstick: smear proof, smudge proof, and kiss proof".

As you look at the applicator above you can possibly see the fault... excess lipstick will be stained on the rollerball,, and you can't well, wipe it off because the ball just keeps rolling. 

Side by side little comparison.

The left is the lipstick alone and the right is it topped with fixative.

I find the fixative to sheer the color slightly/make it washed down a little. I would worry about this if you have an issue with lip products bleeding. Mainly because it makes the lip product more wet, but this fixative is made with alcohol so it will all dry quickly anyways.

I wiped away my swatch and was pleasantly surprised to see that the fixative left a little stain!

For the test, over several days I applied lipsticks of various formats and shades. I've noticed that lipsticks with less moisture/shine work better with this fixative (makes sense.. harder for the fixative to penetrate through excess moisture).
Lipsticks I tried this with: Covergirl Lip Perfection formula (the vibrant shade featured in the swatches above), TheBalm's Balm Girls formula (the lighter of the two in swatches), and Wet n Wild's Mega Last in "Mochalicious".
I chose 3 shades from a nude to a deep reddish brown.

Overall, I was extremely disappointed with this product.
- I can't see it locking in a lipcolor for an entire day without touch-ups.
- "Kiss proof" claim:  While the fixative worked to make my lipsticks relatively "kiss proof" (it did not transfer onto tissue when blotting), once eating I was disappointed to see my lipstick was crumbling off. Important to note that I wasn't eating very oily foods either.
- "Smear proof" and "smudge proof" claims:  I found these claims almost already disproved from the start seeing how the applicator sheered out the lipsticks, seen in the pictures above.
The real fault in this product is its applicator. It is so hard to get moving for the product to come through and while applying it creates a very patchy finish due to uneven application from the rollerball style.
