Lipstick Love

I am in love with a new lipstick. Now I am usually a gloss girl, but I just might consider being a convert! The great things about this lipstick: the colors, the feel, the cost (available at Drugstores! gasp!) Honestly, I can't find anything wrong with it, and I have to say that is rivals my MAC and Dior and YSL Lipsticks. Yeah, it is that good.
Okay, so what is it?
Max Factor Vivid Impact Lipcolor
I can't tell you how amazing it is, well maybe I can. Consider this: I bought one tube from Ulta and 3 hours later I went back and bought 3 more! It is that good.
The colors are so smooth, perfectly pigmented, sleek, moisturizing and it lasts! I wore the first slick from my first tube through 2 lattes and lunch. Impressive.
So let's get to the colors I bought.
#04 Pin-Up Pink: A creamy, dreamy pink that I bought because I wanted delicious lips like my friend Dollbaby. :) It is not too bright, not too light, not too baby pink. It is my new favorite for a petal pink lip.
#28 Rose Rage: A creamy mid-tone rose that looks great on my lips. It is very close to my natural lip tone and looks great topped with a gloss.
#24 Ms. Terious: A great nude/natural lip. Looks great topped with a gold gloss.
#48 Bitten: A beautiful plummy wine color














Give me congrats for doing my first swatches!!

"ulta"mate pink

I love limited edition lip garb like nobody's business. I feel so special every time I pull out a tube and gloss my lips and someone says "oh that color is great! Where did you get it?" My reply? Limited Edition bitch! So I always pick up anything L.E. Right now at Ulta, Stila Lipglaze in "ulta"mate pink. It comes in the click pen like applicator that most Stila glosses comes in. Smells like bubblegum, it is the perfect sheer pink pearl and looks simply divine on my lips. And in fact I think it would flatter any skin tone. Downside? $22 a pop. Now in this ecomony that is some big clams to shell out, but this oh-so-lovely color is worth it. Now if Stila would just make it regualr.
