...box is white with pink stripes, with all information and the Too Faced logo gracing it in black. While the majority of the writing on the box is in quite a neutral, professional font, the 'Lip' in 'Lip Injection' and the Too Faced logo provide a refreshing amount of girliness with the trademark curly writing that's quite synonymous with the vintage image that the company projects in all of its products.

...any other products from the Gatineau range and was sent into fits of delight at the thought of something new to try out. Brian bought this from the shopping channel QVC, they sell Gatineau regularly and it always looks like a very professional range. Up until I received this, I had not used any separate lip care treatment other than my pearlescent lip salve that lives in my works drawer. I apply Vaseline to my lips before I go to bed so they are ...
...bit messy to apply straight from the pot on a regular basis through the day and will leave my lips with a greasy look - which is not what I am after. It's presented in a nifty tube which is 10.5 cm long, and looks extremely elegant - definately one to be proud to produce in company! The tube is cream in colour but is slightly transparent - letting the pale pink contents show through. At least you will be aware of how much you have left in the tube. ... Read review

Advantages: Shiny shimmery colour, tastes and smells great!
Disadvantages: Very rare since Pout went bust!

Pout were a UK company who dealt in high end makeup with cute packaging and fun names. Note the past tense - they went bust! Their products are still floating around online though, a lot of which you can get a great deal for, and they are worth snagging before stocks run out. I got my lipslick in a set from TK Maxx which had a lipslick, eyeshadow and eyeliner for £10. You can find Pout on most of the discount cosmetics sites online, the best price ...
...were very few in stock, Pout fast becoming extinct and all. There are other sites which have them, and eBay is always a good port of call for their products.

I will admit to being a bit of a lip balm junkie, so I popped it in my basket and used only that for a few weeks, before it was relegated to the drawer with all the other fallen soldiers and ...
...A little background on Badger - they are a company from New Hampshire who create a whole host of lip and body balms, sunscreens, soaps, baby products and aromatherapy items, all made from 100% natural and quality ingredients. Over here, they are quite rare; although they can be found online and the balms are in Boots, I have never seen any of their other products anywhere. Then again, I haven't really looked all that hard either. I have heard great ... Read review
