Oh the troubles of lip gloss satisfaction. Some plump and some moisturize while others tint and illuminate. But where is the line that carries the all in one gloss?

bareMinerals has always been my preferred makeup of choice, (admittedly swiping a cheaper CoverGirl lipstick or Maybelline mascara here and there) willingly buying into all the illuminating, natural, anti-aging benefits that BareMinerals pours onto consumers, and have yet to be disappointed.

Yesterday, I had a hankering to get my makeup fix and to fulfill my binge, I slipped into the 34^th Street Bare Escentuals store. I happily stocked up on new foundation and other truly unnecessary extras. However, while doing so, I came across a lovely array of glosses.

I typically have an issue with glosses and lip shimmers of the sort. Being addicted to lip balm and chapsticks, the texture of most gloss comes too sticky and tends to lie on the surface rather then heal my thirsty lips. Yet, the boutique gal was brilliant in her selling techniques, and again, as a sucker for marketing tactics, I ended up trying on a gloss from their 100% natural line.

I was sold. Not only did it provide a luscious shimmer, it was creamy and applied effortlessly. And on top of it all, it heals. Like all of their products, the bareMinearls lip gloss houses many nourishing minerals and antioxidants to condition, protect and sooth-chapped lips.

They have numerous shades in the line ranging from a light chiffon to a sexy pomegranate. I Settled on their Wild Honey 100% natural lip gloss. It’s a semi-neutral beige with a wet shimmer and a slight sent of honey (no flavor). For only $15 my lips are looking and feeling FAB!
