When I first saw these Jumbo lip gloss sticks available on
eyeslipsface.com I knew I had to have them. These are, I think, meant to
follow the design of the clinique chubby sticks, or the revlon kissable
balm stains. They are a fat crayon type product that is retractable so
no sharpening required. The packaging is quite nice. It's a matte white
tube with a clear lid. Each tube has a strip of color along the bottom,
and that is where you turn to push the product up. EAch colored strip,
of course, corresponds with the color of the product.
The
shades that I purchased are "In the Nude", your typical nude shade,
"Tiki Torches", a peachy pink color with gold shimmer, "Summer Nights", a
pretty light pink with gold shimmer, "Sangria Starters", a brick red
and "Movie Star" a bright fuchsia pink. There were three other colors
available that I did not pick up (but plan to!) which are "Coco Loco"
(which looks to be a mauve shade), "Pink Umbrellas" (a bright bubblegum
pink) and "Flirty and Girly" ( a bright fuchsia with shimmer).
I
really enjoy these lip glosses! They aren't super glossy, which I guess
kinda could count against them, since they calls these lip gloss
sticks. But they have a nice sheen, and they last quite a bit longer
than the average gloss on me. These are what I had hoped the Revlon
kissable balm stains would be. They are quite moisturizing and the color
payoff is fantastic, without being super opaque. The color selection is
nice, and I hope that they come out with even more colors soon. I would
love to see a bright red, a coral and even a plum shade!
The
only thing that isn't a home run for me with this product is the smell
of these products. They are sort of plastic-y smelling, with a hint of
mint thrown in. While I don't love the smell, however, it doesn't
transfer to the lips, so it's not something that really bothers me too
much. I just wish they had a more pleasant smell!
Overall, I highly recommend these little babies! At just two dollars a piece they are a steal.
I apologize for the quality of these photos. My camera cord is still MIA, so I had to use my crappy phone camera to take them. I promise I will edit in better photographs once I get a new camera cord!
