The Studded Kiss Lipsticks come in some super badass packaging! The black plastic is shiny, and the sides of the tubes are completely covered with tiny studs. The tops of the caps have the classic "KVD" logo.

Plan 9: Shimmery mermaid green, this is a very unique color for the lips. The formulation is pigmented but the texture is a tad gritty.
NaYeon: This is a black packed with a ton of silver glitters. The coverage is decent and the formulation doesn't feel too gritty.
Piaf: This is a strange muddy brown filled with purple shimmer specks. The formulation is super gritty, almost chunky.
Mercy: Maroon filled with purple and blue sparkles. This one is relatively creamy but still gritty.
Tijuana: This is a matte bright true red. The formulation is creamy and super pigmented.

Overall:
These new lip colors are definitely unique and daring. The formulation overall was disappointing. Other than "Tijuana", which is a great bright red, the rest of the colors are either too gritty, patchy, or drying. However, a lot of these colors are one-of-a-kind, so they are worth checking out for that reason alone.

Kat Von D is available online and in stores at Sephora.
