Cosmoholic Liquid Lipstick Review

Every chick likes simplicity. I don't care who you are. If you are thinking in your head right now: "Actually, Kell, I am a complex and deep person and I certainly enjoy challenging myself" - you're a lying bitch. I'm going to do you a favor right now and show you just how wonderful simplicity can be.

It's tough to get that perfect glossy lip AND color that you want. Usually, this look requires using a lipgloss and a lipstick and typically when combining two different products, the end result isn't as drop dead sexy as you imagined it to be. You end up with a weird smell or a weird texture or something along those lines. Simplicity. I crave simplicity. I don't want to use two products to achieve ONE look. Wouldn't it be wonderful if some company would create a glossy liquid lipstick that isn't sticky and doesn't smell like artificial bullshit?

The wait is over. Thank you, cosmoholic:


These GORGEOUS liquid lipsticks not only give you the pigmented color of a lipstick, but they also combine the glossiness of a lipgloss... IN ONE PRODUCT! It's a hybrid of wonderfulness! They're available in 7 sexy colors and I had the pleasure of trying out "Prudish Pink" and "Gold Digger" which I swatched for you guys:


 Gold Digger is the only color Cosmoholic has that has 'sparkle' in it - so it makes a great top coat to take your lips from a day look to an "I'm ready to get my par-tay on" look. You can also wear it alone for a sheer, shimmery look. Prudish Pink is a gorgeous medium-pink color and it worked GREAT with my skin tone. It's not sticky at all whatsoever and it smells like natural vanilla. There's nothing artificial feeling or smelling about these products. And guess what? They contain vitamins and antioxidants - SO THEY'RE GOOD FOR YOU! They're like sexy vitamins for your lips.


I really, really super encourage you guys to check out Cosmoholic and pick up one (or 5) of these amazing products. If you need practical lipcolor that simplifies your life and doesn't require you to carry around a gloss and a lipstick - meet your match, baby. I also posted a video review over on our youtube channel, so if you need visual aid .. I gotcha covered.

Saint Germain IN THE BUILDING!

I have been internet stalking Saint Germain for a good 4-5 months now. I've posted about my struggles in attempting to find a color similar to it and failing every time. I've posted about how frustrated I am that my local mall doesn't have a mac counter. And I've posted about how I drove to the shitty mall that does and they told me they discontinued this color.

WRONG. NOT DISCONTINUED. STILL AVAILABLE ONLINE, IDIOT.


I almost let that metrosexual male mac employee ruin my day. almost.


Honestly I don't know why I didn't buy it off the website sooner. I guess I hated the idea of paying for shipping for one measely little lipstick, but thankfully I found a free ship code and that was no longer an issue. I was also somewhat enjoying the hunt of trying to find something comparable - as frustrating as it was. But obviously, everything I found was too dark & made me look like a washed out ghosty ghost.

Well the little bitch came in the mail yesterday (and also let's talk about how I went home on my lunch to get it once I saw it was delivered because it was hot outside and I was afraid it would melt. I am pathetic) & I am happy to report that it's everything I dreamed and more...


EXCITED.

Perfect color of pink for me. Not too dark and not crazy light that I look like I dipped my lips in powder. I also love that it's matte - so you don't get the frosted-1985-extra-in-footloose look going on. When I first expressed obsession interest in this color, I had so many girls e-mailing me like "no! it makes you look like a hooker!" .. but I'm not really getting that vibe? Or maybe I do look like a hooker and I'm in denial?

Either way, I love this color so much & I may possibly use the entire tube by the end of summer. I'm happy to announce that this officially makes two lipsticks that I love and can actually wear without feeling like I look overdone (the other being "natural nymph" by E.L.F. cited here). If you're looking to pick up St. Germain - head to http://www.maccosmetics.com/. I used the coupon code "lash410" & got free shipping plus a free sample of zoomlash mascara.
