All Time Favorite: Lip Gloss


smashbox: Limitless Long Wear Lip Gloss
These are absolutely amazing lip glosses! If you've ever tired a smashbox lip product before then you know that they lean on the sticky side and this gloss is no exception. Although it's not a super sticky lip gloss (like their Lip Enhancing glosses aka the square tube glosses) it is still slightly sticky which is why it's so long wearing. Unlike NARS lip glosses I only have to reapply after I have eaten. These glosses are more creamy than thick and glides across your lips giving an even distribution of color. This gloss gives a very natural shine rather than an over-the-top glow. Also, smashbox is a cruelty free line! You can find these glosses at Sephora and Ulta for $22 (0.10 oz). 

NYC: Lippin' Large Lip Plumper
Despite what the name may imply, this lip gloss does not create a plumping effect. The reason that I love this gloss some much is because of the pigmentation and price. This gloss has a very creamy texture and is extremely pigmented. These are one of a few glosses that I actually won't pair with a lipstick. I would say that eating aside these last a few hours. There is a minty smell and slight minty tingling sensation that you will notice when you first apply it but that doesn't last long. These glosses have a nice shine and moisturize dry lips. I found mine at Target but you can find them at drugstores as well. They retail for $3.99 each.
