Estee Lauder Lip Conditioner
March 31, 2008
Estee Lauder Lip Conditioner, with Shea Butter, Vitamins C and E, and SPF 15, has a nice ingredient list for a basic conditioning balm.
Vitamin E conditioners such as this one also tend to work well under lipstick or in place or a regular lip balm.
The Estee Lauder version has the bonus of being packaged in an attractive tube. I have always liked the classic Estee Lauder gold packaging.

New Look at Girl Gloss!
March 28, 2008
As part of a larger project (TBA), Girl Gloss has gotten a face lift! Take particular note that you can now see the Beauty and Fashion Tech headline feed at the bottom of the site, and can search both the site and Google at the top.
During the update, you might notice various tweaks and changes. Right now the site is also not rendering quite properly in the Internet Explorer (IE) browser, although it is quite functional using IE7. Issues with IE6 are being addressed. However, if you are still using IE6, you also likely are seeing many websites not rendering properly and I strongly suggest that you upgrade your browser.
If you need to upgrade, my recommendation is upgrading to Firefox for either Mac or PC, although the site will also work fine in Safari for Mac and IE7 for PC.

Calvin Klein CK Delicious Pout Lip Gloss
March 26, 2008
When Calvin Klein re-entered the cosmetic market last fall with its CK line, I was quite excited. For those who do not remember, Calvin Klein had a cosmetics line several years ago that was discontinued. I had a few favorite lipsticks from that, and was sorry to see it go.
Well, now that Calvin Klein is back in the cosmetics market, I joyfully bought a CK Delicious Pout lip gloss in Fiesta (pictured). Unfortunately I was disappointed.
The Delicious Pout was not particularly delicious. OK, it didn’t taste bad, but it lacked the flavor I would expect from something with its name.
The gloss does look quite nice. Basically it gives a nice hint of color and terrific shine, but it does so with an accompaniment of stickiness. I can deal with a bit of the stickies if it goes away quickly, but when glosses are sticky, they usually stay sticky, and my Delicious Pout most definitely stayed that way.
I have yet to try the other CK glosses or the lipsticks, which were wonderful in the old line. I’m hoping that they turn out to be better.

MAC Strobe Tinted Lip Conditioner SPF 15
March 24, 2008
M.A.C. Strobe Tinted Lip Conditioner is a re-release of a product M.A.C. put out several years ago. I distinctly remember it, because while I loved the feel of the lip conditioner and the pretty tints that it came in, it had a bit of an off taste for me. Basically, it had that heavy lipstick taste that you sometimes get with cheap brands. So the last time around, I used up the tube that I bought, but kept wishing that M.A.C. would fix taste.
Well, here it is again. So when a couple of samples arrived for me from M.A.C., I quickly opened them up hoping for the same thing as last time minus the odd taste.
It still tastes the same.
Now to be fair, I am not seeing a lot of other people complaining about the taste (but I haven’t really looked very hard either). So maybe it is just me. Other than that, it is a delightful item. It feel nice, it protects and conditions, and the tint is just enough to be seen, but not enough to feel like you just put on a coat of lipstick.
I just wish it tasted better…….

New Sally Hansen Natural Butter Lip Shimmer and Shine
March 21, 2008
It seems like I am writing an awful lot about Sally Hansen lately. I think in part it is because the company is coming out with a number lip products and I had not tried many of them before.
Two of the new items are the nearly all natural Sally Hansen Natural Lip Butter Shimmer and the Natural Butter Lip Shine. The Shimmer is a thin balm-like stick, that reminds me quite a bit of the Burt’s Bees Lip Shimmer products. It is basically a moisturizing balm with a bit of very sheer color and shimmer. I like the stuff quite a bit, although I would prefer it in a regular sized balm.
The lip shine is a nice moisture packed gloss. If you are looking for nice treatment type of gloss, this is a great one!
Both products have a hint of fruit flavor and scent, and are packaged using environmentally friendly materials. The company states that the ingredients are 94% all natural.
