I am reviewing the shades Red Delight and Desert Rose today.

At first, many would be confused about the name which says ‘Gloss Addict’ and it is actually a lipstick. The range is called Gloss Addicts and the Lipsticks are a part of this range. These are basically high shine glossy pigmented lipsticks.

They come in a pretty silver packaging with a see through cap. The base is  strong enough, so no fear of breakage as seen in a few lipsticks recently.

It is super glossy and moisturizing. Well pigmented and 2 strokes give you a full opaque color. It stays for 2-3 hours and leaves behind a soft tint and reapplying is easy too. You can apply it on the go, unlike  a few matte lipsticks which need to be applied properly with patience.

Only issue is does not stay that long and might not cover pigmented lips completely especially the lighter shades like Desert Rose here.

Red Delight is a pinkish red shade with some fine shimmer. This shade would work on all skin tones. And it is one easy to carry red. If you are just starting with reds and don’t want to jump on the bold reds, this lipstick is for you. It brightens the face instantly.

Desert Rose is a light rosy pink shade. Would suit medium to fair skin tones. It gives a fresh look to the face and is a good shade for daily wear. But not meant for pigmented lips, as won’t show up much.

And here are these on moi..

Pros:

1. Super glossy.

2. Pigmented.

3. Very hydrating.

4. Comes in 15 rich shades and has all pinks, nudes, reds, corals,etc

5. Travel friendly.

6. Easy to use on the go.

Cons:

1. Expensive and the qty is less too.

2. Lighter shades won’t show up on pigmented lips.

Overall, I would say these are good for someone who loves glossy lipsticks. I do. Also these are so easy to use, you can just carry one along and apply it in the car,cab,auto, etc. Very pigmented and hydrating and come in an array of 15 pretty,fresh,wearable shades.

My other favorites are Berry Rose, Plum Perfect (perfect plummy pink) and Orange Candy (a very wearable coral orange).
