Sue Devitt Lip Pencil and Gloss

Sue Devitt is one of those cosmetic companies that can get overlooked, but shouldn’t. The company always has quality items and their lip products are no exception. I recently gave a Sue Devitt Lip Intensifier Pencil in Kirakira and a Sue Devitt Microquatic Lip Enhancing Gloss in Telina a try.

The lip pencil is rather neat and unique. It is thicker than standard pencils, yet not as thick as a lip crayon. It also is on the soft side, but not so soft that lining is difficult. The result is that you can line well with it, but also fill in well with it. The shade is also a good neutral that would wear well across multiple skin shades. Since I like to fill in with liner before putting on other lip products, this one has quickly become a regularly used product for me.

The Sue Devitt gloss is also quite nice. It wears sheer, but is still pretty well pigmented. It is not at all sticky and has just a hint of shimmer to it. Mostly it is all shine. The gloss has a brush applicator. I noticed that the shade Telina on the Beauty.com site and in product photos looks rather Fuchsia, when it actually is a nice light pink. So, I grabbed it and the pencil and made swatches. Those are below.

MAC Too Fabulous Collection. New CremeSheen Lip Glass!

The Mac Cosmetics Too Fabulous limited edition collection has some great new shades of MAC CremeSheen Glass . If you haven’t tried CremeSheen, you should! This highly pigmented gloss wears wonderfully and, unlike some of MAC’s regular lipglasses, it isn’t particularly sticky.

The line also includes some great limited edition MAC Lip Pencils. These are creamy smooth and come in a nice variety of shades.

For great results, don’t just line your lips. Fill them in entirely with a pencil before applying additional color.

Note: This post is based on products given to me by a representative of the company. For more, please see my Disclosure Page.

Cat Cosmetics Lip Liner

I love this lip liner from Cat Cosmetics. Provided in a neutral shade, buck naked, it is very versatile. It is also just about the best liner I have used. The pencil is creamy, so there is no tugging, it and get this — it is waterproof! It lasts incredibly well.

Wear the Cat Cosmetics liner under your favorite lipsticks with a little gloss for a very comfortable and long wearing look. This is by far my favorite lip liner. I also reviewed years back on Beauty and Fashion Tech (read Cat Cosmetics review).

Four Favorite Hard Candy Lip Products

Hard Candy Cosmetics are back, and they are at Walmart. I went out and bought a selection of items to try and the lip products were definitely my favorites. Hard Candy also sent me some eye shadows to try that I will review next week on Beauty and Fashion Tech.

The Balm Girls tinted balms give a nice sheer tint with good moisture. The package is cute too.
Mouthing Off Lipgloss is a high shine gloss that is not sticky and has pretty shades.
Button Your Lips Gloss is a twist up brush gloss similar to Stila’s glosses. This was my favorite of the bunch. Great pigment and low stickiness as long as you don’t try to go to sheer with it. I likes these better than Stila’s actually!
Visibly Wet Lip Pencil is a creamy, thick lip crayon that also has fairly good pigment and pretty shades.

Below are shopping links for the products at Walmart. You should also be able to find them just fine in the stores, although my local store was sold out of a few items–mostly eyeshadows.

MAC Holiday Lip Kits and Bags

I managed to sneak in a field trip to the MAC store to see the new MAC Holiday Collection . The MAC lip bags this year are quite nice. I like the silver bags, and the colors in both sets are quite attractive. One set is a selection of pretty pinks, and the other collection is akin to brick red in color.

The lip kits are also nice, as usual. One kit has neutral shades and the other has pinks. There is also a MAC Viva Glam set. Again, I like the cases on these quite a bit this year.
