Cons:

• expensive for a drugstore lipstick 
• the shades I have tried tend to look a bit frosty
• not moisturizing enough if you have really dry lips (like me)

What I think:

All of the shades I tried go on creamy and last a good amount of time on the lips, and they only require one swipe on the lips to show their true color. However, they tend to be frosty, and thus, they do settle into fine lines.

Altough the lipsticks aren't moisturizing enough to completely eliminate the use of a lip balm, they doesn't dry my awfully dehydrated lips, which is an absolute must for me. I still wish they were more moisturizing, and I would have like a more shiny finish, but I guess I was just excepting more.

To me, the scent is just the usual lipstick scent; nothing too agressive or disturbing. It doesn't really taste something either.

The metallic-like case feels luxurious for a drugstore product, even though it's not as heavy as it appears to be. I like the fact that you can see the color of the lipstick at the bottom of the tube (just like NYX Round Lipticks), and the square shape is nice and sleek.

I'm not sure about the whole 7 days claim, as these lipsticks didn't seem to have drastically improved my lips' condition.
