Stash Swatch: Lips

Here's my stache swatches from my collection of lip products. I know my stache is small, but it's good to me and I love it (: Enjoy

LIPGLOSS:

This is my lovely collection of lip glosses, though not the largest, it gets the job done.

Adore Lip Pencil in 5th Avenue:

- I use this almost everyday to line my lips, it's very sheer the swatch is with a few coats just so you could see the color. It blends with my lips very well. Doesn't stay on for very long though. The color is a shimmery beige with warm bronze/orange undertones. 7 out of 10

Sephora Nano in Candid Candy:

- This is a frosty pale pink with hints of lavender and blue. I like to put it in the center of my bottom lip as a highlight underneath whatever lipstick / gloss I wear. Very nice color, very soft application.  8 out of  10

Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush (color name unknown): 

- This gloss is pretty thick and a little on the sticky side, but that's okay because it results in long lasting lipgloss which is hard to come by. The color in the tube and on this swatch is a sort of lavender rose. Depending on the amount you put on the color can go from virtually clear to the swatch shade. No shimmer or sparkles. It also smells delicious, like grape candy.  8 out of 10

Mirabella Lip Reflect (color name unknown):

- The smell of this gloss alone turns me away. It smells of plastic. It's a clear / sheer pink shade with sparkles. It's a soft gloss that applies really easily but there's better products out there that don't smell so bad. And if you get this in your mouth have fun trying to get the horrible taste out. Yuck. 2 out of 10

Arbonne F.Y.I. It Shine (color name unknown):

- This is a really nice gloss. It has wonderful color, you don't even need a lipstick underneath. I love the packaging as well. The color is a beautiful hot pink with sparkles. Really pretty in the summertime. Application is great as well. 9 out of 10

Clinique Long Last Glosswear SPF 15 in Air Kiss:

- Clinique lipglosses are unsurpassed in my opinion. I kind of enjoy how sticky they are because the staying power is so much longer than that of most other glosses. This color is a very sheer almost clear but it has a tint of peachy pink and a little sparkle. Wonderful gloss. 9 out of 10

Clinique Long Last Glosswear SPF 15 in Extra Apricot:

- A semisheer pinky apricot/peach color with a little gold shimmer. Good value compared to other drugstore glosses. A really nice product. 9 out of 10

L'Oreal Infallible Lip Plumping Gloss in 306:

- I love to wear this hot red with a little shimmer over red lipstick to give it that extra oomf of shine. The smell is kind of discouraging, it's a little bit of a chemically, fake smell. But the color, shine, and overall quality of this product doesn't let the smell get too much in the way. I love the different applicator, it's great for shaping.  It doesn't last very long, I do have to re-apply every so often. 8 out of 10

LIPSTICK:

MAC Satin Lipstick in Myth:

- This is a veeeery nude color. It is much lighter than my skin tone so to not look like a corpse I apply a nude or pink lipgloss over it and it looks really nice. You'll need to make sure your lips aren't chapped because it will make them worse and very noticeable. I like this lipstick a lot, perfect for creating nude lips. 8 out of 10

Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Stick in Just Enough Buff:

- I bought this because I saw it on Halle Berry and it was gorgeous...what isn't on that woman though. I love the color. It's a very sheer nude color. The consistency definitely could be creamier, it almost feels a little grainy. And if I have chapped lips in the slightest, it shows them 10 fold. But I love the color, so once my lips heal I'll be wearing it more often. 7 out of 10

Brand and Color Unknown:

- I think this lippie might be from Arbonne, but I'm not 100% sure. It doesn't have a name on the tube /: Either way I love this color but reviewing it would be a little pointless...

Clinique Color Surge Butter Shine Lipstick in In The Pink:

- This is a semisheer warm pink / raspberry with some sparkle. I love the feeling of this lippie, so smooth, just like the name it feels like butter when applying. Great for summer. 9 out of 10

Maybelline lippie in Royal Red:

- A very bright hot red. Lots of sheen and shine. I usually have to reapply this quite a bit when I wear it. But the overall color and application are very nice for the price. 7 out of 10

MAC Matte Russian Red:

- This color exudes classiness to me. It's perfect for a night out or on a cold winter day. The color is a very dramatic matte red. It's very vintage film star-esque to me. So classic. MAC's lipsticks are a little pricey but this color can't be duped in my opinion, with quality and color this is a must for red lipstick lovers. 9 out of 10
