Hey
There!
I am trying to
finish testing all of the goodies that came in my Sephora Favorites Summer
Stash kit. I liked the kit over all because I was able to test these goodies
out without buying full sizes of expensive products. You know, sometimes you
are curious about stuff but you don't want to take the full plunge. These
Sephora kits let you do just that.
I've been trying to
find occasions to test my OCC Stained Gloss lip product. OCC has 15 Stained
Gloss shades. If you are partial to matte colors, they have a whopping 39
shades. And, if metallic is your thing, they have 12.
I got a test tube
in the color New Wave which must be code for Pepto Bismol Pink. I gave up
trying to find public situations for this and testing it at home (excluding the
time I wore it to my mother's house and freaked her out). It's really pink (too
pink for me) but it wasn't bad to wear. It was comfortable but really glossy.
There was a slight minty smell (and I like lip products with nice smells).
I only got a tiny
test tube (.08 oz) but I think that tube would last for eva! The full sized
tubes (.33 oz) are $18. Concubine and Aurora actually look like colors I can
work with. I wish Sephora would have put one of those in the kit. I'd be rockin'
it!
When researching the
website, I saw some of the metallics that would work (Electric Grandma and
Bronze Copper). I also saw several mattes that might work IF matte doesn't mean
drying on the lips. I may have to see my Sephora girls and see if a sample
would work.
Oh, the lip tube
came with a teeny, tiny lip brush. My lips are too big for this brush! I have
no idea what I'll use it for.
So this product
would have worked in a different color. But, it did its job and I will probably
be tryin' out another color!
Have you tried out
the OCC Stained Gloss lip products? What did you think?
