I am so excited to be writing this post!
A few months ago I joined Glamour Magazines 'Glamspotters' panel and its basically like the others I have been talking about, you answer survey questions and once in awhile they send you new products to try.
I was surprised when I get the email that I would be getting THREE new lipglosses. They didn't say anything about them, not the brand or colors or anything. Well I finally received them today and W.O.W I am soooo impressed.
To say I am not a lipgloss person is a SEVERE understatement. I HATE IT. I hate the stickiness they all always seem to have. I hate how heavy they feel. I hate how easily they bleed. I hate how they feel drying instead of moisturizing. I could go on and on. So I was a little bummed that the first products to test were lip glosses, but I obviously was willing to give them a try. What did I have to lose?
The first thing I noticed was the BEAUTIFUL gold packaging. I am such a sucker for gold and opening these and seeing the gold made me so excited because even if I didn't like the product, they'd at least look pretty for decoration! The three colors looked beautiful on the outside, the perfect red, a bright coral, and a rose. All three are perfect for different occasions.
The best part? They look exactly the same on as they do in the bottle, even on my super pigmented lips. The applicator was a little weird, it seemed flimsy and like it would break easily. Surprisingly, the flimsiness actually made the gloss slide on easily and I could get the curve of my lips easily. This gloss practically melted to my lips, but not in a suffocating way. They felt super hydrating and lush and they have long staying power. The best part about them though, is the smell! Oh my god I did not expect them to smell so amazing. They have an almost fruity aroma. I don't know but I cannot stop smelling them. Totally the best samples ever and would totally recommend everybody buy them they're called Extraordinaire by Colour Riche.
