The New Hourglass Femme Nude Lip Stylos, Review and Swatches

That's pinky beige Hourglass Femme Nude Lip Stylo in No. 4 smilin' at you from Novato, California

The final fourth dimension I was surrounded by this much nudity was last twelvemonth's Bay to Breakers in San Francisco, ba-dum bum!

Ha, I jest. 🙂

Well…not actually. And that was a petty more jarring than the nudity I'grand talking about today.

Oh, hai!

Really, though, when a dude jogs past y'all in nothing merely tennies and a fanny pack at the crack (no pun intended) of dawn, it'due south a lot to take in before your first cup of coffee.

Just I digress…

These new Femme Nude Lip Stylos by Hourglass ($xxx each) are a joy to play with, partly because in that location are and then many different means a nude lip tin go wrong, and this new collection of twist-up, retractable lip pencils gets it right.

Hourglass envisioned all six Stylos working together as part of a wardrobe of nudes — nudes for minimal makeup days, nudes for when y'all're feeling cocked-fartsy, and nudes for when you have a hankering for something nude and slightly dramatic.

A satin finish gives lips a sheen while ingredients like vitamin E attend and protect yo' pout from the elements.

The 411 on the new Hourglass Femme Nude Lip Stylos…

• These feel like feathers on my lips, and sometimes I completely forget I'k wearing 'em.
• They have an unscented, unflavored formula, but my basset hound-similar sense of smell detects a whiff of something waxy right when they're applied; it fades quickly, though.
• They take a adequately limited clothing time. I get nigh two hours of regular wear out of them if I'one thousand sipping water or tea. Three if I'yard beingness extra conscientious, not eating or drinking anything or blowing kisses at Ryan Gosling pics on my computer screen.
• They take a lurvely satin stop. I think the sheen gives 'em some kick.
• Opacity like whoa! Even the lightest shades, if you build them up, completely cake out my natural lip color, and they do information technology without actualization patchy or uneven…as long every bit I pat the product downwards with a finger or press my lips together to assistance the lipstick settle.

Yep, these are cool — like actually lightweight semi-matte lipsticks, and I recall they look astounding with smokey eyes, especially when you layer a pink or peach gloss on top (I like MAC's Fulfilled Plushglass, and it works with all vi shades).

But really, unless y'all're a makeup artist, chances are you lot'll merely demand maybe one or two of these, since the differences between the shades are and then subtle.

I don't think you tin can go incorrect with Nos. iv, 5 or 6. They're the smoothest of the bunch and the easiest to wearable.

Toll: $30 each
AVAILABILITY: Bachelor now at Hourglass counters advertizing Barneys New York, Bergdorf Goodman, Sephora and online
MAKEUP AND Beauty BLOG RATING: B/B+ (considering the price, I do wish they lasted longer)

Evict, Monday!

Information technology's been real.

I hope your mean solar day was filled with kitty hugs and kisses. Today I've been getting in equally much tabby time equally possible, since I won't exist seeing him for a week later on Tuesday…except for Skype and Face Time video chat, of class. Tabs insists on face up-to-face up morning meetings.

What are you up to? Doing anything fun this evening?

Your friendly neighborhood beauty aficionado,

Karen
