Glossed Over

Here's the long-awaited lip gloss post. I went back through some WIWW posts and figured out what glosses were featured so you can see them in action.

I always hunt for gift sets (Christmas time, Valentine's Day, and Mother's Day tend to be when they are in stores). You can get tons of colors without having to spend too much. I do, however, usually spend a bit more on lip gloss than on other beauty products because I find the pricer ones are less sticky and stay on longer than less expensive brands. I also look for neutral shades that will go with most of my daytime looks. That's again the plus about gift sets. You usually get three super wearable shades and a couple of more daring ones for evening.

My favorite brands for glosses are:
Stila (smooth, great colors, not sticky)
LORAC (slick, dense colors)
Bobbi Brown (a little thicker than most, but very pigmented colors)

These lip glosses were my new addition this Christmas:

LORAC Tie Dye for Lip Gloss Collection
These are full size glosses for only $25.00 and the colors are amazing!!!
Here are samples:
