Adorn
Hourglass Adorn No. 28 Lip Treatment Oil (Tinted) ($49.00 for 0.25 oz.) is a medium pink with strong, warm undertones and a glossy, jelly-like finish. It had semi-sheer coverage with even translucency that allowed the natural lip color to come through. The consistency was smooth, non-sticky, and like a creamy-gel–plush but not heavy at all. This shade applied more smoothly to my lips than others in the line-up as it didn’t emphasize my lip lines. It lasted for three and a half hours but felt hydrating over time.
Note: I had significant issues getting three of the six shades in this formula to dispense product due to the packaging. I was able to successfully manipulate the packaging enough to get it to eventually dispense product, but please make sure you check out the overview for a full sob story on what that entailed (and what nobody should have to deal with on a $49-a-pop product!).

Formula Overview
$49.00/0.25 oz. - $196.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to be an "advanced anti-aging treatment" that "conditions lips" and "boost moisture levels, reduce the appearance of wrinkles and improve the appearance of lip shape, volume, and softness" (it contains Saliporine-8, VOlulip, and Viamerine, per the brand). Unless it's something worn exclusively and for an extended period of time, it is hard to really measure (and even then... we're always talking minor improvements!) those anti-aging claims.
I have been a long-time fan of Hourglass' original (clear) Lip Oil and have found it to be an ultra-hydrating and conditioning formula. It has been one I reach for after a long lip-swatch-athon when I need the extra TLC. The tinted version feels exactly the same: plush, smooth, lightweight, and non-sticky. It is not the longest wearing lip balm I have in my arsenal (the tacky ones always last the best), but it does last for several hours while sleeping.
The tinted versions offers a noticeable tint that's semi-sheer to medium in coverage but translucent, so the natural lip color comes through. Some shades go on quite nicely with an even, smooth delivery of color while others settled into my lip lines. They don't leave a stain behind, and the wear time ranged from four to five hours, depending on how much drinking was done.
But let's take a moment to speak on a product that retails for $49 a pop--that makes it one of the more expensive formulas on the market--and the fact that of the six shades, the packaging is extremely unreliable. Three of the six shades required a lot of fussing, such as removing the packaging, banging the tube on the side of a tabletop, pressing and pressing, holding and jabbing the interior mechanism down, etc. to get the applicator to actually dispense product.
Luckily, I was able to, eventually, get product to dispense normally from all six shades but per user reviews on various retailer websites... this is not an infrequent issue (being unable to dispense product). I had the most success by removing the gold applicator, pulling and gently trying to twist the interior dispensing mechanism, and then trying to dispense product. You'll know if it's working at all by looking in the window on the tube, as you'll see the product move up slightly.
I'm not a huge fan of the applicator; I don't find it that useful for actual applicator, though it's better than a flocked doe-foot applicator, which can get pretty gross over time as it absorbs product (this one can be wiped down if desired).

Bare
Hourglass Bare No. 28 Lip Treatment Oil (Tinted) ($49.00 for 0.25 oz.) is a medium, pinky-coral with warm undertones and a glossy, jelly-like finish. It had medium coverage that could have applied more evenly. The product settled into my lip lines noticeably–not just deeper, vertical lines but horizontal and then some. The texture was lightweight, creamy and more like a plush gel that wasn’t tacky. While it was moisturizing, it lasted for three and a half hours on me.

Cameo
Hourglass Cameo No. 28 Lip Treatment Oil (Tinted) ($49.00 for 0.25 oz.) is a light, peachy coral with moderate, warm undertones and a glossy, jelly-like finish. It had sheer coverage that applied evenly and smoothly across my lips, though there was still a bit of product that settled into a few lip lines, which was a surprise. The product had a smooth, more cream-gel consistency that was plush and thicker in feel but not heavy nor was it tacky. It lasted decently for three hours and was moisturizing while worn.
