i promise to make this less like an ad and more like an experience…

i want color, but nothing to actually be on my lips {that i can feel, at least}. now i do love benetint but not the taste, and the “wannabes” simply are not up to par. but, i was so pleasantly surprised when i tried the new covergirl lipstain and saw the results! the perfect “tint” or “stain” without a strong taste or fragrance and water-based, so no sticky or slimy feel.  and there are lots of lovely shades to choose from, but being the “au naturale” that i am {seen usually wearing burt’s}, i chose the coraly-nude shade {#435}.

p.s. i prefer its matte look, but you can add clear gloss on top for shine.

thanks, covergirl. you really did it!

    This is secretly Mandarin. So glad the lipstain worked out for you. Sorry about the toner/astringent. and Thanks for the product review…you make me want to ALMOST go out and buy this stuff, almost. Maybe if I were more of a lip junk girl…sigh.

    oooo I need to try this because I hate the feeling and taste of other stuff on my lips, so I usually just go without!

    Hahah and I just saw that my name reposted as “Le Aubrey,” which was intentional for your post about France, but not this one…haha
