Lips to die for

While I freely admit to a slightly unhealthy obsession with bath and beauty products, it’s not very often that I come across a particular product that I find so exceptional that I feel the need to share my find with the world.  Fortunately for me, I found just such a product this week:  Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker lip gloss.

I’m not usually a fan of lip gloss – it often seems to be too thick and glossy for my taste.  Sexy Mother Pucker is very light and not sticky in the least.  It is available in several colors but I chose Nude, which is a lovely brownish pink that looks quite natural.  A minute or two after applying the product, the lip plumping agents go to work, which causes a pleasant tingling sensation in your lips.  The product also has a light chocolate smell and taste, which I found to be a nice added bonus.

I didn’t notice that my lips were significantly plumper after using this product but even so, I couldn’t have been more pleased with how it looked.  The light natural color with just a hint of shine is perfect for every day use.  It goes on easily and wears well, which means fewer times reapplication is necessary during the day.  The scent, flavor, and tingling sensation are all pleasant as well.  I also like the retro vibe of the packaging and the clever product names – I know, these things shouldn’t matter but I do appreciate a well packaged and presented product.  I’ll be heading back to Target soon to try the other colors as well as some of the other products in this line so stay tuned for more reviews.
