Hey
There!
Before
the Sephora VIB sale I had to take a lipstick back and I exchanged it for the Buxom
Winner Takes All 6 piece mini lip polish and lip cream collection. I have
several Buxom glosses and really like them. I thought I'd enjoy the mini's
because I've transitioned to smaller purses and the mini's are perfect for
that.
I
love this purchase. It gave me 6 new colors to try and man are they pretty
displayed on my vanity (it's true!). If you haven't tried Buxom glosses before,
you really need to run into a Sephora store and try one. They do tingle the tiniest
bit but they are comfortable, last a good long while and the variety of colors
that Buxom offers makes sure that you will find something you like.
Chloe, Sophia, Trixie (lip polishes), Creamsicle, White Russian & Berry Blast (lip creams) |
I
checked on line and there are one hundred full on lip polishes (ONE HUNDRED!),
10 lip creams and 10 lip glosses. That may seem like overkill to some people. As
a brown skinned girl, I like that there are 100 glosses. Normally if a company
has 20 lip gloss colors, only 5 or 6 really work on brown skinned girls. I
might be able to get away with 2 or 3 more but with 120 colors total, well, I
can wear a good 50% of these colors. So great!
These
colors are probably more spring/summer colors for me but I love them. I wear
the Berry Blast on its own when I just need a hint of color or I'm wearing very
little makeup. I thought about picking up the large mama jama Buxom Roulette
with 15 lip polishes and creams, but I decided that I wanted to pick my colors independently.
Lip collections are nice when you are pretty sure you will like most of the
colors but when you already have so many colors within a collection, being able
to pick your own colors outweighs the bonus of a bunch of mini colors. I looked
at this set and decided that only 3 of them were must haves (3 of them were
already haves) and even at the $47.20 discounted price, I'd rather purchase the
ones I really liked individually.
I'm
not teasing that I did just that mind you.
You'll
have to wait for the VIB unboxing to see what I did get!!
