What is this LIPSENSE that we hear about everywhere?
A Review of LipSense, The Direct Selling Opportunity and why it was the furthest thing from my mind…..
Our Story:
When friends first told me LipSense would be perfect for my daughter Megan’s performances, I was skeptical. Lip colour that wouldn’t smear, transfer to costumes or microphones, and could last through hot stage lights sounded almost too good to be true.
Megan also had sensitive skin, so I wanted to know exactly what she was using.
Then we were gifted a LipSense collection to try in a shade that could also work for Megan. Even Dad, a chemical products specialist, got involved and checked the ingredients.
Megan tried Sassy Z and loved it from the first application.
That was the beginning of our mother-daughter LipSense story — and the start of something much bigger than we ever expected.
What is LipSense?
LipSense is a revolutionary, waterproof lip colour that is applied in three thin layers. LipSense does not smudge, smear, rub-off, transfer onto your drink, or kiss-off. It can last up to 18 hours! With over 50 shades to choose from and the layering process, you can literally create thousands and thousands of custom colours.
Unopened, LipSense can last for 7 years. Once opened it can last approx 2 years. One tube of LipSense is equivalent to approximately 4 tubes of lipstick. With daily use, a LipSense can last up to 6 months. LipSense is the flagship wow product of a company named SeneGence which manufactures an entire line of long lasting makeup and revolutionary vegan, gluten-free anti-aging skin care products. LipSense colours are broken down to work with both warm, cool and neutral skin tones and are available in both matte and shimmer finishes. There are dozens of glosses that are offered to compliment your LipSense.
LipSense is socially responsible and a product that serves the masses. It is Gluten Free, Wax Free, Lead Free, Vegan and is not tested on animals. It is even a mechanical sunscreen and shields your lips from the environment. LipSense is manufactured in pharmaceutical grade facilities in the USA and is formulated in compliance with FDA regulations.
In 2024, SeneGence launched a New line of Matte LipSticks called HydraMatte! LipSense Cream (renamed from Hydramatte) is the NEWEST addition to our famous LipSense® lip color. It’s a true liquid to matte finish lip color that stays put for up to 6 hours*, even in water. No need to top with gloss or re-apply lip balm to fight off dryness. HydraMatte / LipSense Cream is hydrating, anti-aging lip color that lasts!
Let’s do a little recap of what we know so far:

So, is this a new company? NOPE! With just 6 shades of LipSense lipstick, SeneGence International was founded by Joni Rogers-Kante in 1999. LipSense entered Canada in 2001, but it has been relatively a quiet giant in Canada until 2016 when it exploded on Social Media. (Yes, you have seen many a lady swiping that clean finger across her lips on YouTube and Facebook). The company has quickly expanded to include revolutionary skin care and cosmetics, but we will chat about those later!
LipSense Application
LipSense works with a 2-step system. You have your LipSense lip colour and your Glossy Gloss sealer. You also need the Ooops! Remover in case you make a little boo boo and for when you want to take your colour off at the end of the day. Before you apply lipSense, your lips need to first be free of any product and completely clean and dry. I like to use a little witch hazel to clean my lips first, but that’s just my preference. You apply LipSense on clean lips in 3 very thin coats, in one direction and wait 5 to 10 seconds between coats for the layer to dry before applying the next layer. Once the third layer is dry, you seal with Glossy Gloss! Don’t let your lips touch before you apply the glossy gloss, or you will find that your lips are sticky and may pull colour off. Same thing with not going back and forth with the colour on your lips. It will remove colour if they are tacky. Wait until you get your glossy gloss on and then have fun smooshing the luxuriously rich gloss that contains shea butter and vitamin e. It will keep your lips hydrated and nourished. Keep it with you to reapply the gloss on your lips throughout the day before and after meals to protect the colour..
LipSense Removal
When you are ready to remove your LipSense you can do so with the Ooops! Remover. It is a blend of fabulous oils that make removal a cinch. Like application, your lip colour may come off in layers. First wipe off any remaining gloss. Then apply Ooops! With your wand on both upper and lower lips. Leave on your lips for about 120 seconds and then remove with a warm wash cloth or towelette. If any colour remains, repeat the process until your lips are completely clean.
How much is LipSense?
LipSense is initially sold as a starter kit of 3 Products (LipSense Colour, Glossy Gloss and Ooops! Remover) Also Distributors receive wholesale pricing for 20% to 50% discount (depending on your purchase levels). There are several starter kits you can choose from if you would like product to demo when you begin your business.

My LipSense Review: Final Thoughts
As you can see, I’ve become a huge fan of LipSense, and the entire SeneGence cosmetic line! The SeneGence Revolutionary Skin Care is Worlds ahead of the competition as well. I love the cosmetics because they are all long lasting and many are either water resistant or waterproof, non-smudging and cream to powder, leaving a flawless finish on your face. LipSense is still by far the most popular product with my clients and for good reason! It’s amazing and because it addresses the needs of so many being wax-free, lead-free, gluten-free, vegan, kosher, no GMOS, not tested on animals, no animal by-products AND a mechanical sunscreen against the elements! Of course, when you have the opportunity to make up thousands of custom colours to match any need, LipSense becomes the SUPER POWER of the lipstick world.
Growing with SeneGence
I became a SeneGence Distributor in June 2017 because my daughter was too young to join herself and wanted to share LipSense with her friends. Almost immediately, it became a family venture. We started doing events together in 2017, and that hands-on experience has remained a big part of what we do.
Today, my daughter is finishing university as she pursues a career as an opera singer, and together with my husband, we continue to take part in beauty events across Canada. From local markets and private events to larger women’s shows and special beauty experiences, our family has built this business by connecting with people face-to-face.
With my background in marketing, I quickly saw that the products, company philosophy and business opportunity were a natural fit. Over the years, we have welcomed hundreds of women into our growing Canadian team, achieved leadership recognition with SeneGence, and I have been proud to serve as Ontario Provincial Leader since 2019.
What began with one lipstick has grown into a business centred around beauty, confidence, entrepreneurship and helping women believe bigger for themselves.
For our family, SeneGence has created opportunities, experiences, friendships and memories we never expected when we first started in 2017.
One little lipstick started our story. Believing bigger is what has kept it growing.

What does being a LipSense distributor entail?
Not at all. You can learn as you go, with training and support available along the way.Your business can also look very different depending on what suits you best. Some distributors love in-person makeovers, home demonstrations, wedding consultations, expos and trade shows. Others prefer social media, online events or simply sharing products with people they already know.
There’s no single “right” way to build it. What matters most is choosing the approach that fits your personality and lifestyle, then providing great customer service and staying consistent with follow-up.
Your business. Your way.
Build It Around Your Life
You don’t have to wait for the “perfect time” to start. A SeneGence business can be built in the nooks and pockets of time already available in your life.
Our team includes distributors across Canada, with connections into the U.S. and Mexico, and we’ve created a simple support system to help new distributors get started with confidence. Team support includes online training, practical getting-started resources, ongoing encouragement and personal mentoring. I work closely with my distributors to help them build product knowledge, develop customer relationships and grow their businesses in a way that feels realistic for them.
SeneGence also makes rank advancement fun with its Royalty-themed recognition levels, including Maiden, Lady, Countess, Duchess, Princess and Queen.
Whether your goal is simply to enjoy the products at a discount or to build something much bigger, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
Believe Bigger. Achieving Together.
