Reader Review of the Day: The Balm BalmShelter Lip Gloss

We're naturally inclined to love things that come from San Francisco, and if you listen to marleygyal02, you'll see why.

We're naturally inclined to love things that come from San Francisco, and if you listen to marleygyal02, you'll see why. She's a fan of The Balm BalmShelter gloss, designed in the Yay Area, and here's why:

When you look at this brush applicator, you're thinking, Oh no, all the bristles are going to go every which way, and it's just gonna be a mess, and then I'm gonna have to throw this thing out. But I am surprised how sturdy this little brush is! Plus, the smell of the gloss is so luscious that you wanna kiss yourself. This is my favorite color because its very light and beachy. Oh, and did I mention it has a sunscreen?

(Yes, you still need sunscreen in Fog City.) If you'd like to share your proverbial two cents, submit your reviews and you could be featured here.

Last week during my insider's tour of Sephora headquarters, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Kimberly Chinn, the lovely and charming color merchant (a.k.a., makeup buyer) for Sephora.com. Girls, let me tell you that she has the most fabulous office decor—that is, wall-to-wall product! We spent an extensive amount of time chatting about her favorite fabulous new products, so I thought I'd take this opportunity to share a bit of Kim's energetic essence. Now, for a brief look into the mind of a beauty buyer.

    FABSUGAR: If you could only take one beauty product with you to a deserted island, what would it be?
    KC: It would have to be TheBalm's TimeBalm Concealer, since it helps to mask my redness.
    FAB: What is your favorite lip gloss?
    KC: Nars super moisturizing lip gloss in Metis. It's a beautifully sheer mulberry color.
