I've pretty much been wearing the same face all week: concealer under my eyes, some powder to blot shine on my forehead, NARS Turks and Caicos, a quick wash of a neural shadow, Stila Smudge Stick in Purple Tang and a quick swipe of gloss. I've grabbed Hourglass Extreme Sheen Gloss in Truth on my way ou the door a few times this week and have been pleasantly surprised.
My love for these glosses is well documented, but I haven't reached for them in a while and I have to say that the love affair has been rekindled. In addition to being completely smooth and non-tacky, they are moisturizing, do not leave that white gummy residue on the lips or cause them to flake (hello, Trish McEvoy Beauty Booster gloss!) and yet last quite a while, leaving behind a soft stain. Truth seems to go with almost everything. It's shimmer-free and a perfect combination of peach and blush. Every time I've warn it, I've glanced in the mirror and said to myself "I love this gloss! I have to wear it more often!" It adds just the right depth and polish without giving the impact of a full-on lip.
That color is perfect on you.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ammie! It's become a real workhorse for me.
ReplyDeleteYou have beautiful lips. The gloss looks like a perfect shade for you too.
ReplyDeleteDitto! Great lips and this looks fantastic on you
ReplyDeleteI love Hourglass glosses, but find that the Extreme Shines don't last very long on me, possibly because the formula is on the thin side...
ReplyDeletedo you have the same problem?
I have Truth too and love the colour to death though so i just reapply like a mofo hehe
