Product Spotlight: LA Girl Glazed Lip Paint

I know I'm late on the bandwagon, I know... 

I first heard about these glosses around 8 months ago when my YouTube subscription feed was blowing up with EVERYONE reviewing them. I really liked Kathleen Light's review. So I heard some great things and I guess I never tried them out simply because they were only available online at the time.. and I kind of forgot about them. Well guess what! I found these at my local RiteAid a couple days ago! Now, I do believe there are around 18 colors total, which can all be found HERE, but my store had 4 shades, and you best believe I grabbed all of them - from top down: 'Nude', 'Bombshell', 'Blushing', 'Pin-Up'.

I'm not normally a gloss kinda girl (long hair+lip gloss+wind = get the heck off my lips!) but I figured with the craze surrounding everything liquid lipsticks these days, these would be great for my kit. Since everyone seems to have favorable things to say about them, and they're only $3.49!!!!, what could it hurt to try?

People have compared the packaging to the Too Faced Melted Liquid Lipsticks but I believe the formula is completely different.  These have the color payoff and pigmentation of a liquid lipstick with the moisturizing wear of a super shiny gloss.  They smell pepperminty (not too bad, I HATE the smell/taste of the Revlon Kissable Balm Stains (original) ugh, ew, yuck) but these were pleasant enough and wore nicely. Be warned with the darker colors - they will transfer onto your teeth if you're not careful upon application.  Remember a little goes a long way, you only need the smallest amount because they're SO pigmented! My favorite is (obviously) the nudest color; for me, it's the most wearable and suitable for every day.  When photographed 'Blushing' and 'Bombshell' looked almost identical but their colors are definitely distinct in person. Blushing was more mauve and Bombshell was more hot pink.

Lip Swatches from top left to right: Nude, Blushing, Bombshell, Pin-Up 

I'm exited to try other things from LA Girl, I've heard their Pro Concealer is fabulous and a lot of the pros swear by it's coverage so hopefully the drugstores will start stocking their whole line!
