New Benefit Lip Glosses: A Few Quick Swatches and Pics

July 4th, 2009 by Karen 23 Comments

Hey there, Benefit lip gloss, lovahs! I got my hot lil’ hands on some of the new Benefit Lip Glosses ($18). The line of eight shimmery shades replaces two of Benefit’s previous lip gloss lines, The Gloss and Her Glossiness. I’ll do detailed reviews and lip swatches soon, but here’s a quick look at some swatches.

Happy Fourth of July, ladies! 🙂 I have to tell you about my trip to SF’s Bliss spa yesterday, but my mind needs is craving another cup of green tea. I’ll be back soon.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    I love Fresh Squeezed, Friends in High Places, and I’m With the Band.

    I’m glad you had such great time at the spa! I could go for a good head-to-toe massage.

    Is Kiss You one of the original colors Benefit had? I feel like I had that gloss back in the day cause the swatch is totally joggin my memory over a Benefit gloss that was violet that I used to love. Hmmmmm…..

    Hope you enjoy your Fourth!!!!

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
