Really stays on, but can be messy!

I bought some of the velour liquid lipsticks a few years ago. I got some nude shades, and one really dark, deep red colour. While I do agree that they stay on amazingly well, they do also dry your lips out and you end up stuck with cracked colour on your lips. The deep red was beautiful, but so messy that if you messed up application at all, the stuff was everywhere. That shade was also near impossible to remove, but it also bled, so you need to wear a liner with it.
Shipping took as long time to Canada - over 3 weeks, and the tracking wasn't registering anything, so it seemed lost for awhile. I found it all pretty expensive for what I got, when there are so many other comparable and better options out there.
