Mally's High Shine Liquid Lipstick

Hey Adventurers! Today is a review of the item I recently received in my New Beauty Test tube. I received my tube about two weeks ago and was instantly drawn to this to try out. I don't know too much about the brand but a few people on youtube talk about them and love them. This bad boy will cost $20. As I said, I received it in my test tube so I didn't pay full price for it.

This product has a brush tip applicator--these pictures were taken when it was brand new to get the full effect of everything and to keep it in pristine condition; and who wants to see a brush coated in gloss anyway? hahaa. To get the product through the brush, you twist up the bottom. It took a pretty good minute for any product to get through the brush.

Here's a swatch of it--with flash. It has shimmer in it and quite a bit that you won't see in the tube, it surprised me actually. On the hand it was more of a stickier formula than I liked. On the lips it feels less sticky but it's still sticky and it's not something that I would run toward again. The lasting power on the lips is enough. It stays for about an hour, comes off on things and it's sticky. I know it says nothing about staying tough. But I just wanted more from this product.

Bottom line: I wouldn't purchase this product again, and I don't think I would of ever purchased this product for $20. The color is gorgeous but it's just too sticky for my liking. :/ Again, I just wanted more from this product.



What were your thoughts on this product if you've ever tried it? Also what would you like to see on this blog?

New Beauty Test Tube!

Hey guys!,
        I received my first Test tube and needless to say I am/was super excited about it, not only is this only around 40 dollars every season, it's totally worth it in my opinion! The picture above is everything that came inside my test tube. They even were nice enough to give three coupon codes so that if you buy from Spalook.com you can get money back (I don't think this is a gift card even though it says gift card on it, it's more of a coupon) This is one of those subscription services where you don't know what you're going to get every season, so you're putting the money in and then getting surprised. It came in a pink box with a New Beauty magazine and a booklet with all the products in it.

 A close up of the cards, it included a 10 off of 60, 25 off of 125 and 50 off of 200! Good for me I believe, I still have not gone to the website to see if I will use them, but they don't expire until 7/31/12 so I have some time to look and see.

Included in this test tube were: 

Mally Evercolor shadow stick in the color Platinum- Full size $25 Included worth: $25 

Neostrata Skin active Cellular Restoration- Full size $79 Included worth:  $2.26

Moroccan Oil Frizz control- Full size- $32 Included worth: $32

Olay Regenerist Wrinkle Revolution Complex- Full size- $28 Included worth $3.78

YBF Eye liner in Plum Noir- Full size $14.50 Included worth: $14.50

Memoire Liquide Lotion and two perfume samples- Full size perfumes- $95 Full size Lotion- $48 Included Perfumes worth- $2.76 x2 Lotion worth- $48

Skin Ceuticals SPF collection- Full size dropper- $146 Full size Cream- $32 

dr. brandt flexitone BB cream- Full size- $39 Included worth: $9.75

Perlier & Elariia Body cream- Full size-$24.50 Included worth: $24.50

I'm completely blown away that 5 of these items were full size, how generous is that?! I only paid I believe something like $38 dollars for a tube worth, are you ready?! $159.79 NOT including what the SPF Collection is worth because I didn't want to figure it out. THAT is completely worth it. As far as what the little magazine told me there are 5 full size items, I'm not completely sure if they are, BUT regardless, I find this tube VERY worth the money I paid for it. So I, am VERY happy with this season's Test tube! 

***The test tube itself is only $29.95, shipping was what brought it up to $38.90, but I live in Hawaii, so it costs more! ***
