I am a lip gloss fiend. I change up my selections, brand, colors often because I'm scared that I might be missing something. Real talk: The first thing I said in the delivery room after giving birth to my daughter was: "Ma, pass me my lip gloss." For me there's almost nothing more uncomfortable than dryness of the lip. It's equally unattractive too. I thought I'd share with you my top three lip gloss picks of the moment. And if you have any recommendations PLEASE SHARE!!
In order of preference:
#3 - C.O. Bigelow's Mentha Lip Tint in Pink Mint - Love the tingly feeling this one provides after smoothing it in. Makes me feel like its "working". Smells great, and provides a tiny tinge of pink to the lip. And it really moisturizes. I HATE lip gloss that just glosses and five minutes later your lips feel dry again. I need the gloss and the moisturization. This one brings it. I usually find myself wearing this one at work or running errands in sweatpants, etc. Loves it though.
#2 - Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush in Mocha Boom - This brand's glosses glide on a bit thick and a lot of people don't like that sticky feel. I don't mind it terribly. Another downside to some would be the strong coffee-like scent of the Mocha Boom. I loves it though. It brings the moisture game and I'm also feeling the goldish tint just adds a little something to the gloss experience.
#1 - Lancome's Juicy Tubes Sparkling Night Collection - Un-friggin-fortunately I can't report the flavor I like the most because it rubbed off the tube, but I think it's Constellation. It's a darker berry colored concoction of perfection. It's not too thick. It smells good, it tastes good, and it adds a sassy amount of color without looking like lipstick. Great moisturizer. This is my fave by far. Sometimes work is worthy of me wearing it but mostly I glide this baby on when I'm stepping out on the scene. Girl's Night Out flow, dinner with the hubby flow.

I agree. I love Bigelow's Mentha Lip Gloss, but I prefer the bare mint tint. It looks good on women of color. It has a brownish-pink tint thats gives lips a nice natural loooking touch.
ReplyDeletep.s what about chapstick? I cant live without that!
I'm with Anonymous - "what about chapstick?" Definitely good for moisturizing.
