Favorite Lip Products of 2011

1. eos Lip Balm
This lip balm is super cute and super moisturizing! It comes in 6 different flavors with coordinating  colors, that glide on clear. It contains Shea butter and Vitamin E, and it is also gluten free, Paraben free, petrolatum free and Phthalate free.  The flavors are summer fruit in a light red colored packaging, lemon drop in yellow, strawberry sorbet in pink, honeysuckle honeydew in light green, medicated tangerine in orange, and sweet mint in mint blue. The flavors are all great smelling and great tasting. I love the round packaging because I find it hard to misplace them because they are quite bulky so I always end up finishing them! :)

2. Benefit Benetint and Posietint
    Benetint is a rosy lip and cheek stain. It stains your lips a dark red/pink rose color that stays on through meals and kisses. It is $29 dollars for 0.4 oz, but it lasts a very long time. Posietint is Benetint's poppy colored sister.  I do think that Benetint looks better on the lips because it is darker that Posietint. They both last very long on lips and look best with a clear colored gloss on top.

3. Revlon Lip Butters
     These Lip Butters have sent the blogging community in a frenzy, everyone has at least one of these and almost every person has done a review on these! They come in a variety of colors and they are all very creamy and moisturizing. They do not feel heavy on the lips at all, some are cream colors while others are sort of glossy and have a bit of sparkle to them. They come in a wide range of colors from peach nudes to bright reds. I also have to mention that the packaging is absolutely adorable! I like to take the color lollipop and put a darker pink sparkle gloss, like MAC's holiday gloss Rags to Riches. :)

Have a great day! :)

Stila Lip Glaze Set

(Picture from Sephora.com)
        I received the Stila Lip Glaze Set for Christmas, and I have to say that it is an amazing set of 8 mini Stila lip glazes.While one of these contains only  0.05 oz, a full size lip glaze contains 0.08 oz.  It is only $25, which is an amazing deal considering one full size lip glaze costs $22. 
        It comes with 8 lip glazes in the shades, Kitten, Kaleidoscope, Apricot, Grapefruit, Fantasy, Starfruit, Dreamy, and Believe. They are mostly shimmery, but none with too large of sparkles to be too terribly noticeable. Four of these shade are bestselling shades, while the other four are limited edition shades.

         Let me talk about the packaging first, before I get into the actual gloss. I love the packaging of these lip glazes, they are convenient to take with you because you can throw them into your purse without the cap coming off  or product coming out and making a big mess. They also hold up pretty well in drawers without too much worry. The only complaint that I have is that when you use it for the first time it does take a while to get any initial product to come out and by the time it does come out I always end up over twisting it, but that might just be me! :) 

        Now on to the actual gloss, I love the color selection in this set with a nice range of nudes to darker cranberry colors. It applies very nicely and I usually take a small lip brush to get it into the corners of my mouth so that I do not make too much of a mess with the brush attached to the gloss because it is a bit large. The gloss has a very long lasting time. I put it on in the morning, I ate breakfast and went on with my day and it didn't wear off my lips until about two o'clock, two thirty. 

      Please tell me what you think about the Stila Lip Glaze Set in the comments.
