LA GIRL Lip Glaze paints swatches and review!!! :D

Wearing shade "Pin-up"

Hello all, happy humpday!
Let me start off by saying that I am sick...wah wah. I was sent home early today to "rest" meaning, take care of that crap because tomorrow is busy lol.
Most of the afternoon I have been snuggling Kittens and my boyfriend in a blanket cocoon but when I saw my packages from Amazon came, it gave me an adrenaline boost and made me want to put all the lip glosses on my face!
So about two weeks ago when I received my Buxom lip polish in the mail (also amazing). I was so impressed by it that it made me want to start expanding my gloss collection. I have been on a liquid lipstick kick for about 8 months but in my earlier makeup years I was all about lip glosses. I went through my collection and although I had a decent variety of glosses I just felt like they were all mostly sheer lip toppers. The Buxom lip polish has a great lasting consistency but the color was very translucent. I decided to hop on YouTube and see what the beauty bloggers were raving about. So one of my favorite YouTubers, Kathleenlights did a couple of videos on the L.A. Girl Lip glazes. I like her reviews because she is genuine with her opinions of products and always does swatches.
L.A. Girl is a cruelty free and affordable makeup line with some high quality products. I think it is important for people to know that there is affordable options and this particular brand is underrated in my opinion. It takes a bit more digging to find the quality products in the drug store world but if you're frugal then you can find some amazing stuff.
On to the swatches!!! o.k. so just a foreword , I am under the weather as I said and I have not one bit of makeup on my face except for the lip glazes. Even my cover photo I had to throw a filter on so I did scare you darling readers!
I got these 6 on Amazon for roughly $12.00 dollars (such a steal!). There was another set that was more nude tones but I went for the colorful deep ones because of my caramel skin ;)
From Bottom to top the shades are:

1. Babydoll
2. Coy
3. Pin-up
4. Blushing 
5. Bombshell
6. Hot Mess

Get ready for some Cold and flu season close ups! mwah

So this is the first shade baby doll and it is a super opaque and light pink color. I used a disposable doe foot applicator for some of these because even application can be tricky because of the squeeze tube packaging. I actually like this color more than I thought I would. Come through baby doll....

So this one is called Coy and it is anything but lol. This is a very loud purple color. I usually stay away from bright purple lipsticks but... my hair is purple now so I think i can create some fun goth looks with this... maybe pair it with a midnight liner mmmm

This shade is called Pin-Up and it is my favorite! It is a deep glossy bright red which I think will look stunning for all the upcoming holidays! Oh and with a full face on Obviously...

So this shade I is called Blushing. I thought it was going to be the token "nude" shade out of this set but it actually packs a lot of color! Still a very pretty mauve/pink color. I don't know if it is too loud for work but maybe we'll find out tomorrow.

This shade is called Bombshell and will be beautiful on all of you blonde fair ladies out there. I feel like it photographs well and out of all the shades I feel like this one was the most even application. A good thing to remember is that shades can change the formulation of your products.

This last shade is called Hot Mess and it is most certainly that! When it comes out of the tube it is Jack o' lantern orange!! I was kinda excited for this shade after seeing it on Kathleen lights and I guess it photographs well but ... it looks very silly on me in person. Also when spreading this one out it would become patchy. I may be passing this one onto a friend or maybe trying it over a liquid lipstick.





Wear Time: So I have been currently wearing the red shade for about 4 hours now. I have eaten dinner, drank hot coffee and blown my nose a bunch. I will say that the glossy finish is gone and some of the pigment but, it has left a flattering stain on my lips that is still quite red. NOT BAD for a lip gloss...just saying.

Final Impressions: So even though there are some inconsistencies with is product when you consider the price point, it's great! It is a super pigmented gloss that gives you the look of having a lipstick on with a brilliant shine. I do think that you need a lip brush or liner for this product to apply even. Also, the packaging could be better but I can't complain with how inexpensive they are. The squeeze tube can be hard to control and can ooze out easily. The last thing is that the color on the packages are not do not match the color that is in the tube which is why I had to swatch them for you. That all being said I love this product! I cannot wait to use it in some makeup looks when I am feeling a bit better.

*This maybe one of the only blogs that you see me without any other makeup on and with my nerd goggles. Only because I love makeup not because I feel insecure without it. Never wear makeup because you feel pressured to. Being beautiful on the inside is ultimately the most glammed up you can be. Thanks for reading. Love you guys. Check in with you next time!xoxo
