Covergirl Lipslicks Lipgloss: Demure, Princess, Precious, Edgy & Daring Swatches and Review!

Purchased by me
According to Covergirl, "Give your lips sheer color and a shot of shine – or pump up the shine of your favorite lip color! This emollient-rich formula helps keep lips soft, moist, and feeling their best as it helps to protect. So say goodbye to dull lips, and hello to beautiful shine."
Left to Right: Demure, Princess, Precious, Edgy & Daring
Features:
Sheer color
Lots of shine
Helps keep lips soft and moist
Left to Right: Demure (nude pink), Princess (baby pink), Precious (pink with lavender flair), Edgy (purple plum) & Daring (cool-toned deepened raspberry shade).
As Covergirl suggests, this is a very sheer formula with lots of shine, and it does, indeed, keep lips soft and moist. I like the way that it feels- there is enough cushion to feel super comfortable. It feels a bit like a cross between a lip balm and lipstick with a lovely dewy shine. While it is categorized as a lipgloss, I would say it's more of a lipstick/lip balm hybrid. It functions in the realm of the Chanel Rouge Coco Shine, but make no mistake- Chanel's permutation is of superior quality in every way. That said, this is a lovely drugstore version of this über popular type of lip product. I get about 2-3 hours of wear time out of it, but sometimes less because it feels so good that I tend to rub my lips together to feel it. There is a slightly perfumed taste to it upon application, but that quickly fades away.
Overall assessment: I like these a great deal, and speaking of great deal I just saw them on sale for a little over $3.00 each at Walgreens (on 6/4/13). They come in fun colors, feel great on the lips, and are very affordable.

I bought mine at Rite Aid and CVS on sale. Unaffiliated link provided for your convenience.

Have you tried any of the CG Lipslicks Lipglosses? Do you like them?

      Thanks, Alice! I really like them, and the price is good. If you have a Walgreens nearby I would check there since they are on sale for a little over $3.00 each! :-)

    Precious is my favorite swatch. I love a gloss with a subtle hint of color. Give you just the right amount of shine. I definitely have to check these out. Thanks!

      Hi Monae! Precious is really pretty! Try to get it from Walgreens if you have one near you-- the clearance prices were fantastic at just a little over $3.00. It might be worth calling first because the last Walgreens the I went to didn't have many left in their display. I saw piles of them at CVS and Rite-Aid, but they weren't on sale like that! :-)
