COVERGIRL LipPerfection Lipcolor is Lush, Bright and Lovely!

    I recently got the chance to check out several of the new COVERGIRL LipPerfection Lipcolor. These new lipcolors are formulated to give you a high shine, beautifully pigmented, hydrated pout. What makes these lipcolors differ from the zillions of others at the drugstore, besides the pigmented color,  is the silk moisturizing complex.

    COVERGIRL's exclusive silk moisturizing complex includes olive, avocado and aloe oil, shea butter, white tea and silk protein, all of which gives your lips a hydrating treat that I usually equate with more expensive lip products.

    One of my gripes with drugstore lipcolor is that it normally falls a little flat. It's either really pigmented and very dry feeling or super hydrating and has no color. I am also not usually happy with the color selection. Sure, there are hundreds of colors to choose from, but they almost always seem flat and uninspired. And mauve-y or pink seem to make up the majority of the colors.

    On the other hand, I've also been known to wear a lot of nude lip glosses and light peachy tones, so maybe I should be branching out.



    (Wearing the uber-trendy Impassion, a lovely orange)

    I decided to try several shades from the new LipPerfection collection and see if I could break my streak of wearing a nude lipcolor with a peachy lip gloss.


    (Wearing Rapture)

    Pictures don't lie (although most of the time, I'd give my long lashes if they did!), so check out how much a strong lipcolor can help change your look and balance out your features!


    (Wearing Enthrall)

    I found that all of these colors wore for a long, long time (starting with a few hours without needing a touch up), which is way longer than my usual glosses last.


    (Wearing Enchantress, totally for scientific purposes. This is not my color, but it could be yours.)

    I also found that after people stopped saying, "Wow. You are wearing lipstick," that I got a lot of compliments.


    (Wearing Dazzle, that elusive pink that reminds me of Julia Roberts pink lips in My Best Friend's Wedding.
    Redheads never forget a great pink!)

    I'm not sure why wearing a bright color on my lips is what brings out the comments from people who normally don't speak to me.



    (Wearing Temptress)

    It's not feathered hair extensions, a wig or hot pink eyeliner, so it must be the gorgeous COVERGIRL's Temptress lipstick.


    (Wearing Kiss)

    With so many colors to choose from, a few have to be right for you. These are just as nice, if not better, than the majority of lipsticks I've paid department store money for. So save your pennies for something else and check out LipPerfection!
