So I have a thing for Lipstick Queen, and these Endless Summer Lipsticks have been on my wishlist forever. I kept waiting for them to go on sale but they never did. Then this past May came along and there was a general sale, I was ready to give in and just get them, only to find that they've vanished from LQ's online store. I can only assume that means they've been discontinued, so I jumped over to Amazon and thankfully found some at a discounted price (should've just done that from the start...)!
There are 4 colors in this range, Aloha, Hangten, Perfect Wave, and Stoked. I skipped Hangten because I'm not that fond of nudes.

These are in orange metallic tubes, though unfortunately with that sticky rubbery feel like the Saint Lipsticks. I wish they were smooth brushed metal but in the end, it doesn't bother me that much.
I love the formula. These feels similar to the Saint lipsticks to me, thick, buttery smooth, and with a glossy shine. But the two lines aren't identical--these are slightly more balmy, and with added SPF.
I don't know about Hangten, but the 3 colors I have are all shimmer free. Despite being labeled as "sheer," they show up very well, if not decently pigmented on my lips.
- Aloha: translucent warm-leaning red. I say warm-leaning because it appears neutral on the back of my hand but is warmer on lips. Definitely want a backup of this color! I love it when I find the perfect translucent red like these--I have several from different brands but still can't have enough and probably won't stop hoarding anytime soon. I think I might need help ^.^"
- Perfect Wave: semi opaque bubblegum pink but turns hot pink on my lips. When I saw this color in the tube, I was terribly disappointed. It looked like it'd turn milky on my lips :( Thank goodness it doesn't and barely missed the milky threshold.
- Stoked: perfect orange-coral. Whereas Perfect Wave is semi opaque, Stoked is semi translucent and is lovely on the lips. Want a backup of this also!
Aloha, Perfect Wave, and Stoked.

The red and orange look lovely! And with SPF, I am tempted!
Yeah, those 2 are the apples of my eyes also. But they've been discontinued, so if you want to try them you should grab them before they're gone forever.
^.^
D.
Yeah, but trying to use up my fresh lip balms first :P
You're much better disciplined than I am for sure!
