We're not ashamed to say we collect lip products like some people collect stamps, old cars, or creepy troll dolls. (Hey, we all have our vices.) That said, we're always on the lookout for the latest and greatest in lippies — anything that will enhance our already sizable stash.

So, imagine our elation when we heard about a product that could totally transform the lip colors we know and love, all with just a single swipe. Was our lipstick wardrobe about to grow by leaps and bounds? Giddy with excitement, we took to the Beauty Test Lab. Our associate beauty editor Tara delivers the verdict, above.

00:04Sub... Superliminal? That's not a word.
00:12Today in the Beauty Test Lab I'm trying out the Kat Von D Transformer Liquid Lipstick in
00:18Superliminal. It's supposed to be a lipstick that you can wear on its own or a top coat for other
00:24lipsticks and it has crystal pigments that are supposed to change the look of your lipstick.
00:29So we're gonna see if it works. First I'm going to try the Transformer by itself because they say that
00:35you can just wear it on its own. This looks really nice. It just looks like your basic clear slightly
00:41pinky lip gloss. I would definitely wear it. It doesn't look like the crazy psychedelic color in
00:45the tube. So I'm gonna take this off and see what it looks like over another liquid lipstick shade.
00:50I'm gonna start by applying this other Kat Von D liquid lipstick. It's called Love. This is like
00:55what the cool version of myself would wear. Now that we've seen what the color looks like I'm
01:00gonna apply the top coat on top and see if it changes the color. So I really like the finished
01:04look. Glossy purple lips are pretty bold look so I'm still getting used to it but I think it looks
01:09pretty cool. I liked the top coat a lot but I think it's basically just a clear gloss effect. I
01:15don't
01:15think it really changed the color of the lipstick which is fine but I'd say that if you want to
01:20get
01:20this look you could really use any clear gloss but they do work well together.
