Healing lip gloss!

Advantages: Glossy, moisturising
Disadvantages: Sticky, smearing

...Introduction I received a free Lancome Juicy Tubes 7g (half-size) Lip Gloss at a Lancome counter when purchasing other products from them. I only ever used them as a gloss for going out and was impressed it's long lasting rich and glossy. formula. When my lips recently became cracked and my Palmer's Dark Chocolate and Cherry Lip Balm didn't help, having nothing else to use, I resorted to the Lip Gloss to protect my chapped lips. I was amazed that within the hour, my lips were re-hydrated, replenished and crack-free! The packaging The packaging is fun and classy at the same time and immediately grabs your attention. The long and see-through plastic tube is light and handy and it closes with a screw-on top. Appearance and application The 14g (full-size) gloss comes in more than 20 varieties and in as many...

...~~~~~~~~~~~ About MAC ~~~~~~~~~~~~ MAC are a well known and reputable Make Up brand, providing make up and their services to many celebrities and models. MAC have always been dedicated to helping people with AIDS, and have raised more than $95 million for the M·A·C AIDS Fund since 1994, so it's nice to know that some of my money is going to a worthy cause.

Review of MAC Lipgloss

The best lipgloss I've owned yet, full stop.

Advantages: Looks gorgeous on and lasts
Disadvantages: a bit expensive

..., squeezing a generous amount from the tube onto a handkerchief. I was surprised as the gloss is quite thick, but not actually sticky. Obviously, like any gloss, there is a degree of stickiness, but this is virtually unnoticeable. Often I have found it goes a bit sticky if you apply too much, but retailing at nearly thirteen quid, I doubt anyone with sense would be slathering it on like the world was ending. All of the glosses have a slight sparkle to them, but surprisingly it doesn't look tacky. The sparkles can be seen up close, but from a normal face-to-face speaking distance I would say that it's more of a light sheen. The smell and flavour of the toffee one is delicious, however I know from trying on my friend's that some are flavourless and have very little scent to them. I did test-drive the pink one, and I now see what...

Review of Lancome Juicy Tubes Lip Gloss

cheap lipgloss

Advantages: cheap
Disadvantages: smell

...****NYX Girls Round Lip Gloss**** When i saw these only cost $2 i decided to try a few of them out. I had tried out a few of their products by this point and i was pretty happy with the quality of them. Nyx would be described as a high street brand as they are quite cheap. **Packaging** These come in a long round tube,similar to other lip glosses on the market.The applicator has a sponge tip unlike other some other glosses i have tried that have brushes on the end. It is also angled so it makes applying the gloss easier and more precise. **The range and product** There are 36 of these available going from very clear to vamp red. I have noticed that a lot of the shades do seem to be pink. So i think that if you want a pink lipgloss they probably have every shade you can think of. Smell- i don't know if it was just the place i bought...

Review of NYX Girls Round Lip Gloss

Super shiny lip gloss.

Advantages: Fabulous, long lasting and tastes great!!!
Disadvantages: Can sometimes be slightly sticky.

...I, as many others saw the hype about this product and decided to give it a try. When going to buy it I found it a little expensive for such a small tube so decided to buy it from an auction site first. When I received this item I assumed from the size it would only last a very short time but was happily surprised when it lasted for ages. At this point I decided it was worth the full price and bought 4 different colours. Personally, I prefer the sheer colours as you can wear them nude or with another colour lipstick underneath. This lip gloss comes in 12 fabulous shades, my three favourites are "Melon" which is really subtle, almost clear and not at all glittery and "Framboise" and "Petale" which have a little more pinky colour and a subtle glitter. They all taste really sweet but generally don't taste of the flavour you expect. Don...

Review of Lancome Juicy Tubes Lip Gloss

The Best Lip Glosses on the Market

Advantages: Beautiful range of colours
Disadvantages: Quite expensive

...I absolutely adore Lancome's juicy tube lip glosses. I have five different Juicy Tubes and I personally think that they are the best lip glosses on the market! There is a wide range of stunning colours which suit everybody and can be worn during the day or at night. They all have a distinctively fruity smell that is really delicious. Juicy Tubes also contain different colours of glitter, which catch the light and look amazing. Each of the juicy tubes has a bright eye catching colour, which although might look too bright, gives a gorgeous colour to the lips. Juicy tubes are packaged in clear tubes with a screw top. To apply, simply squeeze the tube and either put the gloss on with your finger or use the tube and apply like a lipstick. Juicy tubes are also very versatile as they look great just as a lip gloss or can be put...

Lipgloss With Extra Gloss

Advantages: Glossy, unique applicator, nice taste
Disadvantages: Doesn't last that long, not cheap

... Effet 3D Bourjois Lipgloss I received this lipgloss as a Christmas present last year from my sister - after I kindly pointed it out to her! We were both out shopping and tried it on in Superdrug and I loved it, and since I had needed a lipgloss she bought me it. The one I have is called Effet 3D Cocktail and the colour is Rose Bahamas (pink). Bourjois is a well known brand and was founded in 1863 by Alexandre Napoleon Bourjois. He worked as a perfumier in France and noticed that actresses at the time would wear thick, greasy and uncomfortable makeup, and so he invented the first range of powder blushers. They not only became a success with the actresses, but also with the public and began selling in countries all over the world. Today they sell products such as mascara, eye-shadow, lipgloss, blusher, nail varnish...

Review of Bourjois 3D Effect Lipgloss

Casting Creme Gloss

Advantages: Easy to use, covers grey and dodgy highlights, lasting effect
Disadvantages: Sensitive scalps take care

...At nearly six pounds, this isn't the cheapest hair dye out there but it's incredibly easy to use and virtually mess-free. Also, it works. After a disasterous highlighting adventure, i used Casting Creme Gloss in Mahogany to cover up the damage. I have used this product (same colour) in the past, and it covers greys perfectly. I was impressed with the way it also covered up my unwanted highlights. They still show through a little bit, but more as tasteful lowlights as opposed to the brassy orange streaks i had before. Casting Creme Gloss is easy to use. You basically mix two bottles together and shake. The manufacturers have even made a handy slit in the box so that you can wedge your bottle of mixture in it and it will stand upright. Now, that's really thoughtful! The mahogany shade came out on my medium-dark brown...

Review of L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss

Casting Creme Gloss

Advantages: Lovely hair colour, shimmery, smooth. Conditioning.
Disadvantages: Application is a little annoying, price.

...users a whole range of crazy hair-affiliated miracles! Well, not really..the packaging states that the hair colouring will: • Last up to 28 shampoos. • Be Suitable for all types of hair (coloured, highlighted etc) • Cover 70% of grey. • Take 20 minutes to develop. Casting crème gloss also conditions and provides visible shimmering tones. It has no ammonia and has a patented conditioning complex and has a non-drip crème application formula. In my honest opinion, this is pretty much true to my experience of Casting Crème Gloss. It is gentle colouring that blends with my natural colour. I chose the new colour of Golden Honey number 730 which is like a dark golden blonde. The colour on the model on the packet looks phenomenal. Of course, my hair didn't look like hers, and I didn't expect it to. I know that...

Review of L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss

soft soft lips

Advantages: nice,smells great
Disadvantages: pricw

...****Lancôme Juicy Tubes  **** I recently got a couple of these free in a kit when i purchased 2 other products from lancome. I had previously tried similar products with varying degrees of success so i was quite eager to see if these were any good or if i would be giving the extra ones away. **Packaging and appearance** I think it is pretty standard for lip glosses as i have seen other brands with the exact same packaging. The product comes in a see through tube with a screw lid. The one i got is a pink,sparkly colour. **Results** The first thing i noticed after applying it was that it felt quite sticky, i can live with that though as it leaves your lips feeling soft. This tastes divine and smells lovely .I think it is much better than other lip glosses such as the boots version. **Other kinds** There are more than 20 of these...
