Spring Lip Glosses, Part V: Juicy Reds

BellaSugar — Fri, 16 Mar 2007 09:50:22 -0700

Welcome to the final installation of my five part series on Spring lip glosses! This final segment features juicy red lip glosses! Bright and sexy sheer red shades are a big beauty trend this Spring. Here are three of my favorite red hot, juicy red lip glosses:

TheBalm Plump Your Pucker Tinted Gloss in Bing My Cherry, $14, is a new lip gloss formulated with folic acid, menthol, vitamin C, and maxi-lip to taste, smell and feel smooth on your smackers!

This sexy sheer red gloss adds fullness to your lips in a cumulative fashion. After consistent use after 30 days, your lips will look luscious. Available in 18 shades.

Liquid Luxe Lipstick in Red Manhattan by Playboy Beauty, $16, is a two in one lip color that combines the shine of a gloss with the coverage and wear of a lipstick. It is high in pigment to make this the most opaque of the three glosses, but the extra shine in the formula also makes it the smoothest and shiniest. Available in six colors.

Yves Saint Laurent Golden Gloss #5, $27, is a golden copper color that goes on a sheer, sparkling orangey-red. This packaging of this gloss alone makes you feel sexy and special.

The gloss forms a mirror-effect on your lips. It is formulated with mother-of-pearl (to add high shine) and nigelle and cameline oils (for nourishing). Did I also mention how awesome this smells? Available in eleven shades.

Red Hot Lip Glosses

Go red go! Even if you don't celebrate Christmas, red is a fun, bright, and festive look that maybe you wouldn't try if it were another time of year. Right now we all know that red is in the air....so get yourself red hot for the holidays! These glosses make a more subtle statement than red lipsticks because they are more sheer.

Dior Addict Plastic Gloss in Electrifying Red, $23.50, is a beautiful and brilliant gloss that doesn't hint around the fact that it's red. It's a thick and highly pigmented color that will leave your lips looking full and incredibly shiny. Dior's claim to fame is creating this wet "vinyl like" look so be prepared to turn some heads!

Bourjois Rouge Hyperfix, $16, is a double gloss! One side is a ten hour, semi-permanent lip cream that dries instantly and will keep your lips locked in with color. The other side is a sheer gloss containing silicone to add shine and vavoom! Start with the creamy side first and then apply the transparent topcoat. Even I was surprised how long this gloss lasts. This is a great gloss choice for when you are at a party and won't be able to reapply often.

Fresh Lip Shine, $20, is a super thick gloss that moisturizes your pretty pout since it's formulated with jojoba oil and shea butter. You can either apply a single coat for a sheer natural looking flushed lip tint, or layer on several coats for a bright red, traffic stopping opaque color.

I'm loving Christina Ricci's makeup look from the recent Spike Scream Awards in LA, and lucky for us, we've got the scoop on the perfectly rosy lip gloss shade she wore as a stain while presenting the Breakout Male Performance award to Twilight's Taylor Lautner. It's from Lancôme's new lollipop-inspired La Collection Lollipop ($35 per kit). Each limited-edition gift set comes with a Color Fever Gloss - Christina wore Ma Cherie Cherry - and a Le Vernis nail polish. Five dollars from each sale goes to the Anne Hathaway-backed Lollipop Theater Network, a nonprofit that organizes film viewings for very ill children and teenagers. Also available are Mademoiselle Grape and Bon Bon Strawberry, with each kit's artwork designed by kids. Which one do you ~~lick~~ like most?
