I am a huge fan of LIPSTICK QUEEN, and between their innovative and high quality formulas, gorgeous range of colors and whimsical products and packaging– I find myself in a perpetual state of enthrallment! Their Frog Prince range, which consists of a lipstick, lip gloss and cream blush are to makeup what mood rings were to jewelry– customizable shades that react to your personal body chemistry. These fetching Frog Prince gems respond to the pH balance of the skin, and the result is a range of stunning rosebud pink shades. The green frog, therefore, undergoes metamorphoses in order to become the makeup prince you have long sought!

According to LIPSTICK QUEEN,

One year after the world fell in love with the sensational, sell out green lipstick that transforms into your own flattering shade of rose bud pink, LIPSTICK QUEEN brings you Frog Prince Cream Blush and Lip Gloss, two enchanting new ways to bring a little fairy tale magic to your makeup.
LIPSTICK QUEEN Frog Prince Lip Gloss ($25.00 for 0.204fl. oz from Space NK) : On me, this delectable green shimmer-laden lip gloss transforms into the most fetching pink-mauve that is unlike any shade in my collection. It boasts a stunning shimmer and shine, has no detectable scent or taste, and it lasts for several hours without fail. It is non-sticky, feels exceedingly comfortable on the lips, and it contains lots of natural conditioning oils that offer nourishment and hydration. Furthermore, hyaluronic acid retains moisture and offers plumping without any discomfort. Needless to say, this glistening, gorgeous green tube is a great conversation  piece that will make your friend, well, green with envy.  The doe foot applicator  perfectly fits into the contour of the lips, and deposits color evenly and effortlessly.

This show stopping and shimmering green shade adapts according to the wearer’s pH, creating a romantic rosebud hue with a lustrous, high – shine finish.

“The next chapter in the Frog Prince romance is this fairy tale gloss that turns into a vivid and ultra-glossy pink as soon as it touches the lips.” POPPY KING, LIPSTICK QUEEN FOUNDER
LIPSTICK QUEEN Frog Prince Cream Blush ($24.00 for 0.0748fl. oz from Space NK): If you love a great quality cream blush, then behold this delightful compact filled with this whimsical shade of grey. It is hard to imagine that this little green frog, gorgeous in its own right, transforms into the prettiest shade of pink. The texture of this formula is a soft gel-cream that can be sheered out or built up effortlessly. It glides across the skin without incident, it deposits color evenly, and it neither emphasizes fine lines, nor does it settle into pores to accentuate them. While this beauty can be applied with fingers or a brush, I tend to prefer to use my fingers with this particular blush. The finish has a very soft and subtle sheen that creates a nature, and highly sought after, glow from within. I have actually used it on my lips as well, and think that it is gorgeous in that application as well. Furthermore, I and have found that layering it under Frog Prince Lip Gloss creates an added level of depth and visual interest.

According to LIPSTICK QUEEN,

With its petal-soft texture and translucent finish, this silky, gel-cream formula brings a natural, rosy flush to the cheeks despite its astonishing lily pad green appearance. This unique color is subtle yet highly buildable, with a soft sheen for a flattering, cheek-sculpting effect. Natural oils ensure skin remains soft and moisturized. Apply with fingers or with a brush.

  5. I adore the packaging of the blush! I tried the LQ Sailor Gloss in blue recently, but it stayed transparent on me. Maybe there's something wrong with my pH :(
