Jane Iredale Lip Fixation

22 Jul

Lip Fixation™ boasts a lip stain and lip gloss in complimentary colors handpicked for the season. In 3 colors: Desire, Fascination and Craving. Fortified with the natural plumping properties of ginger root extract and the moisturizing power of avocado oil, these ultra-hydrating, long-lasting shades last all day without losing their intensity.

My previous experience with a lip stain were not so great. As well as my first and only experience with a lip product that promises plumping results. I had tried Benefit’s Lip and Cheek Tint. Its supposedly like this coveted beauty product…..insert rolling of the eyes and big pfhh! here ——-> 😉
Sorry, I’m not buyin’ it. It was disgusting. I don’t get what anyone see in it. And my first and last for that matter, experience was with Bare Minerals Buxom Gloss,…..*ducks and hides* Sorry BE girls…that product is AWFUL! Instantly felt like it was burning my lips but then they were also numb at the same time……ridiculous!

The shade that I am reviewing is Craving. I have a confession to make. At first I didn’t think I liked it. I thought the shade was off. Turns out, you just need very little. And then it was like the most perfect sheer nude, slightly pink shade. Love it.

So I used End #1- the color. Put a little on with the sponge applicator.

Then it dries in like one hot second. It was quick. What I noticed was that my lips hadn’t felt like they had been put in a space bag, and sucked in really tight. It didn’t have that super dried up feeling.

Then I used End #2-and applied the clear gloss with the brush applicator, which was pretty fab by the way.

And presto! Super cute sheer nude pink lips in a flash, that are gonna last this mama all day! Yipee!

These are the colors…

Craving, Clear Gloss, Craving with Clear Gloss

One of my favorite things about this gloss, is a not so obvious one. But for me, I was like WooHoo! Once you’ve had the gloss on for a while and you’d expect your lips to dry up, it didn’t. It left my lips with the nice creamy consistancy you’d get from a lip balm. It was very moisturizing. I really liked it. And I also felt it did plump my lips up as well. But I never felt that scary numbness or burning that I felt with the previous brand. It was a nice experience. So nice, I might just need to own them all. I do believe when I write my Multi-Tasking Mama Post, This will be the gloss. The color pretty much the whole day and I think I re-applied the gloss like twice. What a time saver!

You can buy this, and other great Jane Iredale Products online at Jane Iredale, or use the store locator. You may be one of those lucky ones that has a boutique near you!

Juice Beauty Organic Lip Moisturizer

20 Jul

Sometimes I like to review products and see if I can review them in 3 words. This was one of them. Here is how I describe it in 3 words:

Sweet, Shiny, Yummy-delicious-ness.

Ok so that was almost 4. And I don’t know if “yummy-delicious-ness”, is a word, but I like it and it should be. But seriously, YUM!

The first thing I noticed was that it had a sweet yummy smell. Sweet Orange. I would say, due to the orange oil in it. Along with Orange Oil, it has Beeswax, Shea Butter, Vanilla, Cocoa Butter, and Vitamin E(non-GMO). All of which are certified organic, except for the vitamin E. The second thing I noticed was the shine. It has a high shine for yummy glossy lips.

It is USDA approved. Which means that Juice Beauty has met the strict standards, guidelines and regulations that the National Organic Program has. Which is greater then 95% organic content.

I love that they mentioned it on the box, because its important to me. Our skin absorbs up to 64% of what we put on it. Plus anything you put on your lips, you eat. Calling all Bonnie Belle Lip SMACKER fans!! You do NOT want to know what is in your lip balm. But you really should!

I really like this gloss. It leaves your lips super soft with a high shine. Its the perfect all natural gloss. My mom who is a balm/gloss lover tried it and said she liked it to. And she doesn’t like a lot of things so.

In conclusion,… Sweet, Shiny, Lip Smackin’, Yummy-delicious-ness. Sounds good to me!

Its a good thing Juice is in the name because its pretty darn juicy. 😉

Love this lip gloss will definitely buy again!

Hugs & Lip Gloss(shiny ones!),
