REVIEW: Shiseido Lipgloss

shi_gloss.jpgI have not used many of Shiseido's makeup products before, but when browsing the counters for a new shimmery pink lipgloss, I was immediately drawn to one of their Summer lipgloss color's, Shimmering Petal.

The color is a gorgeous petal soft pink. And the gloss itself smoothes on with its very lightweight formula, with not much stickiness to it at all. Shimmering Petal looks gorgeous on it's own, and lasts longer than most of my everyday glosses.

The price, $20, is a bit high for a gloss, but I was quite impressed. When looking for a particular shade in the future, I will make the Shiseido counter one of my first stops.

REVIEW: Juice Beauty SPF15 Tinted Lip Moisturizers

/

I am a stickler for a lip balm with a suncreen when it comes to spending any time in the sun. But I have been on the search for one that would do the job while adding a bit of color too.

The color names are Delightful, Playful, and Joyful. They are all very berry when applied - just a different range of berry for each one. And the tint is more of a stain, all unflattering at that.

And while these balms did do the job of protecting my lips from the sun, they are very thick and left bits of wax when applying. Not smooth.

Looks like I am still searching!
