I hear from readers, friends and fellow beauty-junkies asking for a lipgloss that’s glossy, long-lasting, non-sticky but also good for the lips– meaning it’s moisturizing for the lips. Take it a step further and ask for an eco-friendly product hat’s paraben, sulfate, phthalate and fragrance free and water-resistant (read doesn’t rub off when you have a sip of your drink du jour) and you might think that’s asking for time to stand till.
The creative cosmetic genius of Carissa Janes has created just such a lip gloss for spring 2010 for her cosmetic line Hourglass. Prodigy is a collection of glosses that feature numerious benefits:
a silky and non-tacky texture providing high shine and comfort;
enhanced with Vitamin E, the glosses hydrate and protect the lips from becoming chapped and dry;
has superior water-resistant color;
and amazingly enough is paraben-, sulfate-, phthalate, and fragrance-free
Besides providing these killer benefits, it’s also perfectly sleek and sexy packaging makes it an accessory you wouldn’t mind flashing as you reach into a back pocket or af clutch. This flat tube features a metalized outer shell that is squarish rather than round and has an ergonomic feel that makes it fit perfectly into your hand. (no slipping out of your hand or dropping it, it’s easy to hang on to ( — or if you have a cute guy — to slip into his pocket as you hit the dance floor). Sweetly cute, the amazing texture is almost weightless, smooth as silk and soothing to the lips while providing amazing color range with this cool collection of colors.
Colors are
Eden (peachy beige)
Hypnotic (golden berry shimmer),
Legend(dusty rose),
Opium (plum bronze shimmer),
Pulse (golden strawberry shimmer),
Surreal (iridescent pale pink)
and this collection is perfectly suited for Spring 2010 with almost nude, softer tones, and deeper tones with a warm hint that will find you wanting to buy one or two shades. There are a couple that sparkle and dazzle yet aren’t gritty and they are subtle but are a sexy flash in sunlight or candlelight. Love the one I got — and it’s gotten me tons of compliments.
