Price: $18 I think that price for anyyyyyy lip loss is kind of up there but it does feel luxurious. It is moisturizing and smells slightly fruity. I really liked it until some of it got in my mouth. It tasted a mix of that slight fruity and wax combo it was weird and stayed in my mouth for about a minute. I still don't know if I can stand it. Like it is bound to get in there especially if you lick your lips by accident! It gave a clear gloss effect to my lips with very little shimmer not visible unless you look veryyyy closely. It reminds of soap & glory/buxom glosses without that minty feeling or taste and it did not dry out my lips like how those would. UPDATE: I am going to keep it because I used it two days in a row on really cold days (IT SNOWED HERE IN SOUTH TX!!) and it kept my lips moisturized. No lip gloss does that, none that I own anyways and even my lip balms don't last that long! I just wouldn't put so much because then that nasty taste and wax feel...

PLEASE IGNORE MY OVERLINED LIPS lol tragic. The lolita picture was taken in sephora so lighting was probably not the best but in person it sorta looked like that on my skintone anyways. It came off as a muted rose brown. I wore it all day and ate with it. It felt drying unlike the wet n wild I used ONE COAT and that was it because if I layered I felt like it would have been too thick. Both lasted the same, about 4 hours with eating oily foods. I wore the wet n wild to thanksgiving dinner (YES THANKSGIVING) and the lolita eating tacos so they both would go through the same thing.  Wet N Wild downside? It seems to separate after having it for a while, I've had mine 6 months and I think that's the max life for it. I don't know how long sephora leaves their products out but it does not seem like lolita has that issue. BUT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO THROW AWAY after 6 months anyways soooo WET N WILD IS THE WAY TO GO!

Ok, so I bought this after trying out a sample size from a previous order. I loved it, it has medium coverage, dries semi-matte. It was one of those impulse buys right after trying. Figured out my shade after watching a million reviews. It oxidizes so I knew I had to choose maybe a shade lighter with the same undertone.  Loved the packaging, glass bottle and pump. But guess what. I had flashback! Iphone and my dslr camera. It wasn't as bad in my camera but the iphone it was sooooo bad! We all usually take pictures with our phones at events so this would be a no go UGHHHHH!!! I just had to blog about it but I had posted a review on influenster at first and had to update that. I did not see anyone saying they did and I just use a cerave moisturizer (PM no spf) and no primer. This is also without a powder. Literally just the foundation. And I know you can put powder foundation on top but I feel like I shouldn't have to. I don't usually anyways, I'll do a set...
