My Experience:
DMGM Xtreme Matte Chubby Stick comes in a black twist up plastic packaging. The lip is transparent so it is really easy to spot the color in your stash. You get 3g/0.10oz of dermatologically tested product which will last a long time. 
The Xtreme Matte Chubby Stick I am reviewing today is in the shade Mock Strawberry. It is a beautiful french rose pink. The color is really fresh and bright but not so much that you can't wear it without thinking twice about it. It is a perfect balance between being wearable and being bright.

Unlike most chubby sticks, that have the glossy and stain like finish, DMGM Xtreme Matte Chubby Stick is a matte lipstick. The texture is very creamy with a semi matte finish. The coverage is medium but buildable. The color lasts for about 6 hours on me. Though in the last two hours it settles into a stain like finish. That is the time it starts to feel a little drying on my lips.
The lipstick does not take mercy on dry chapped lips and emphasizes even the tiniest bit of imperfections so I suggest to exfoliate your lips beforehand. Also the lipstick sometimes fades unevenly. But it is nothing you can't fix. Just blot the first layer of lipstick and then apply another. Chubby Sticks, just like Photo Fix Lip Color have a very irritating scent but thankfully it doesn't linger after application. 
Except for these tiny issues I love everything about Xtreme Matte Chubby Stick. Between this and the Photo Fix Lip Color DMGM is officially one of my favourite brands.

Pros:
  • Provides full coverage
  • Creamy texture and semi-matte finish
  • Lasts for about six hours
  • This particular shade is bright but wearable
  • Available in 10 beautiful colors.
Cons:
  • Emphasizes dryness of lips
  • Has an annoying smell.
Price & Availability: DMGM Xtreme Matte Chubby Sticks are available at all leading stores across the country for the price of PKR 995 each (Approx. $10). You can also buy them online from Saloni.pk in Pakistan and from www.maxcarecosmetics.co.uk if you live in US, UK or Europe. Like DMGM's facebook page for further details.
