Beauty For Real Light Up Lip Gloss - two newest shades: Purity, Desire - swatches, pics, review

Hello, Beautiful!

I've reviewed the Beauty For Real Light Up Lip Glosses on my blog before - the first time being way back in March of 2012 with two shades and again in November 2012 with their holiday trio. I love these glosses and the shades Kiss Me and Just Lust have been favorites for awhile now.

Just recently they launched two new shades: Purity and Desire. This post shows those two shades and another mini review - although my opinion hasn't changed much; I still like these glosses!!

Check out all the product info, along with my full review, after the pics!

Availability: Available on the Beauty For Real website
My Rating: 5 out of 5 Kisses

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION...

This illuminating light up lip gloss formula is like no other! It's loaded with plant derived antioxidants like green tea and grape seed extracts to deliver outstanding regenerative properties and anti-aging capabilities, as well as aloe vera and avocado oil which are full of essential vitamins, are antibacterial and highly emollient.

Their light up lip gloss has a super moist, silky feel on the lips. It's lightweight, comfortable, not sticky or tacky, yet is long wearing.

They contain a groundbreaking lip plumper which feels cool and refreshing when applied. Marine collagen infuses lips with plumping benefits, leaving lips full and luscious.


MY REVIEW...

I've been a fan of these glosses for years now. Some shades I love, others just didn't turn out to be my style. But these two shades, Purity and Desire, are both beautiful and very everyday wearable.

The shade Purity is a light pink nude shade that doesn't wash me out or make my lips look like I have concealer all over them. On their website they describe it as the perfect nude pink - and I basically agree with that statement! I find myself pairing it with bright or dark eye looks because it's the perfect neutral compliment that's still girly and fun.

Desire is more of that "your lips but better" shade, with maybe a hint of berry thrown in. In fact, on their website it's described as sheer berry without shimmer. It looks darker in the tube than on the lips, which is actually something I prefer. It's really gorgeous and I've been loving it.

I like how when you apply these your lips feels cool and refreshed. They give a great wash of shine and are fairly long lasting.

The packaging is great; you get the mirror on the side and there is the light in the cap. What makes them different from others is the light doesn't automatically turn on when you open the gloss. Instead, you can choose to turn it on or not, making it much more user friendly. I know when I saw some of those glosses that automatically light up when you open them, I thought to myself how stupid that was because you might not always want the light.

I rarely use the light on these, and honestly when I have used the light it's been for other purposes - like finding things in my purse. The mirror, however, comes in handy all the time - not just for applying the gloss, but checking if I have food in my teeth after dinner, checking my makeup, and of course to apply my lip gloss.

They'd be great to stash one in your purse at all times just for use of the mirror and light for times when you may have forgotten a mirror or in a pinch need a light. And of course, you have a gorgeous gloss to give your lips some life!

Beauty For Real True Color Lip Cream - two new shades: Flash and InfraRed - pics, swatches, review

Hello, Beautiful!

Back in September Beauty For Real came out with a new lip product, their True Color Lip Creams (which at that time were just called Lip Cream). I reviewed the shade Always There - which is a gorgeous medium pink. At that time they only had three shades, but they've now added two more gorgeous shades to the Lip Cream line, which is now called True Color Lip Cream. I have both new shades to show you in this post: Flash (a gorgeous pink, and my favorite), and InfraRed (an orange-red). Check out all the product info below, along with my full review, after the pics!

Beauty For Real True Color Lip Cream Info & Review:
Cost/Availability: $22.00 (4.5 ml full size). Available on the Beauty For Real website, Dermstore (although at the time I wrote this post, the two new shades - featured here - are not on the Dermstore website just yet), and everywhere else Beauty For Real products are sold.
My Rating: 5 out of 5 Kisses!

True Color Lip Cream - color so rich, you'll need a security guard! Full coverage, incredibly long wear that feels better than you've ever imagined possible. The True Color Lip Cream is a unique formula that provides the ultimate care for the lips with high impact, saturated color and long lasting wear. The applicator is designed with an LED light and a mirror allowing a controlled application anytime, anywhere. The Capuaca Butter is cold-pressed, refined and filtered from the seeds of the Capuacu Tree in Brazil. This provides a creamy and emollient feel that promotes smoothness and softness. While the special blend of organic neroli and mandarin oils offer a soothing, calming feel.

Currently available in five shades:

  • Flash
  • InfraRed
  • Always There
  • Barely There
  • Really Red
In this post I have the two newest shades to the True Color Lip Cream family: Flash and InfraRed. I previously reviewed the shade Always There, when they originally launched back in September. I have to admit, as much as I loved the shade Always There, I think the new shade Flash is my new favorite! It's just a gorgeous pink and I love any pink lip product!

The shade InfraRed is an orange-red, which I surprisingly like and I think I'll get a lot of use wearing it this summer as a bold lip.

The formula is super creamy and smooth; super pigmented. This is definitely a true liquid lipstick - non-sticky, full coverage, longer wear than a typical gloss, but still comfort and shine.

As always, the Beauty For Real packaging includes an LED light in the cap of each lip cream, which makes for a handy flash light for your purse too! The mirror on the side of the lip cream is very helpful. I like to keep at least one Beauty For Real lip product in my purse at all times and I can't tell you how often the light and mirror have come in handy!

I really like these True Color Lip Creams and would recommend. If interested, click here for my previous review on the Always There shade.
