Very Flattering LipstickJuly 2, 2008 I love Laura Mercier make-up and prefer the convenience of buying it on-line when I don't need to test the colors. I've been wearing this Purple Haze color for several years and I have several of them - in my purse, desk drawer, car, etc. The thing I like best about this color and formulation is that it's more like a tinted lip balm in that I can apply it without a mirror. Very convenient.
Great color pay-off, great moisturizing capabilities but minus one star for being perfumed....May 29, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My lips tend to dry out easily and thus I was on the prowl for a nice, moisturizing lip-stick. I found what I was looking for in these!
PRICE: These are $20 for .12 ounces of product. That's definitely on the expensive side given how little product you get but I have yet to find a similar product on the market.
PACKAGING: These come in Laura Mercier's signature brown sparkly packaging. The gloss itself is in lipstick tube form.
FEEL: These feel extremely light on your lips. They provide a decent amount of shine/sheen but they don't make your lips look wet like many glosses do. They are silky and smooth and, in my opinion, are like a very heavily tinted lip-balm. These do not dry out my lips the way many lipsticks do.
COLOR: These are pretty highly pigmented for something billed as a gloss. They can last for up to 4 hours..depending on whether you've had anything to drink or you lick your lips often. I own Brown Sugar, Purple Haze and Rosewater. Brown Sugar is a neutral peachy/pinky/brown color and I think would be good for women with medium complexions and yellow undertones (I am fair-skinned and this comes out a little too brown on me). Purple Haze is a blue-based soft plum with subtle silver sparkles and Rosewater is a bright strawberry pink that is good for Spring and Summer.
COMPLAINTS: My only complaint is that these are perfumed- which is why I took off one star. I would liken the scent to a flowery-pineapple...I know that sounds strange but I sniffed a few times and that is what it smells like to me! It's not offensive by any means but it IS noticeable and you can taste it.
ARE THESE WORTH IT? I think so. Despite not liking the fact that these are heavily perfumed, I would buy again if I saw a color that really interested me.
SUBTLE, REFINED, AND VERY FLATTERING!April 13, 2006 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
Love all of the items in Laura Mercier's spring collection - Sheer Madness. "Sheer" is the operative word here - the makeup is subtle, refined and very flattering.
The stick gloss rates a ten and all A's from me. What's not to like about a lip treatment that soothes, smooths, plus adds color and fullness? Stick gloss is a combination of lip balm, lip color, and lip glaze - a three in one winner.
My favorite colors are Peony, a deep rose, and Poppy, a festive crimson. When applied each color is much sheerer than the tube color indicates. For instance, the Peony appears to be a burgundy tone yet on the lips it is a lovely rose.
Perfect warm weather tones.
