Getting Glossy with Clinique's Fall in Love With Colour Set

Out of the entire Clinique Fall in Love With Colour Set ($42.00), the two glosses are my favorite (well, at least one is...:D).

  In this set you'll find Clinique Long Last Glazewear in Sunset and Superbalm Moisturizing Gloss in Currant along with many other items.

Chocolate for Your Lips, Not Your Mouth!

While alternating between Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister and November's issue of Allure, I discovered Jane Iredale's Chocoholicks: a palette of four succulent glosses that carry the aromas of various chocolates."A compact with four irresistable chocolate-y shades in one compact to create a range of day and night looks. It's housed in a sleeved, slim palette for optimal portability and includes a retractable gold lip brush to ensure precise application and clean storage. Four shades and flavors of hydrating glosses provide a delicious array of options of your lips and your palate."

I'm Loving Nectar: MAC Lustreglass in Love Nectar

I was so happy to receive this gift from a close friend. I've never owned any MAC glosses, let alone a Lustreglass. She gave me this in the shade Love Nectar, which is a dusty apricot with gold sparkles. I can't call this the most long-lasting gloss, nor can I call it the shiniest gloss, but I really like the color and texture. I'm not too big on bold lips for everday right now, so this was perfect. It wasn't too sticky or too glittery, making it the perfect daytime gloss. If you're a red-lip  kind of girl however, this gloss is not for you.

PRICE: $14.50 for 0.17 oz

PROS
  • Very VERY subtle color
  • Gives lips a pinky nude shine
  • Not-sticky
  • Goes on smooth
  • Not too glittery
  • Easy applicator
  • Lasts for a moderate amount of time

CONS
  • Small bottle (0.02 more oz than regular lip balms)
  • On the expensive side
  • Not exactly "Shine Overload" like MAC says.
