30 Fabulous Holiday Gift Ideas: #4 Balmshell Cosmetics Lip Glosses & Lip/Cheek Tints!

Holiday Gift Idea #4

 BALMSHELL COSMETICS 
Lip Glosses & Lip and Cheek Tints

BALMSHELL’s lip glosses are made with a high-end conditioning formula contains lanolin oil, jojoba oil and no artificial preservatives.


Glosses
What I liked: 
  • Flavored with a hint of natural vanilla
  • Perfume free
  • High gloss & shine
  • Each shade has a different floating illustration
  • Illustration end unscrews and can be attached to a keychain (that comes with) 
  • Non sticky
  • Wearable shades
  • No parabens
  • Really moisturizing
  • Unique concept

What I disliked:
  • Not super long wearing but really what gloss is

Lip & Cheek Tint
A gel based lip and cheek tint with a built-in antibacterial sponge applicator so you won’t get “Caught Red Handed".

What I liked:
  • Non greasy
  • Packaged with an anti-bacterial sponge applicator which will help to not stain your hands
  • Long lasting
  • Stain is pretty pigmented
  • Blends easily
  • Formula includes rose water which helps extract oil from skin
  • Love that it can be worn on more than one area (lip & cheek)
  • Wearable shades
  • Lightweight

What I disliked:
  • While I like the idea of the sponge I found it a little small for my cheek area
  • When applied to lips can feel a bit dry (most stains feel this way) but was fixed with a little gloss on top

Who to gift these to:
  • Secret Santa gifts
  • Co-workers 
  • Your closest girlfriends
  • Anyone who enjoys cartoons and floaty pens :)
  • Anyone who doesn't have a lot of time and would love a multi-use product
  • All the teens/young ladies in your life.
This is how the lip & cheek tint in Gossip Greta looks on me.
This is how it looks once I added a pinky gloss on top (Caryl Baker VIsage "Sunshine")
With cute names and even cuter illustrations BALMSHELL's products are sure to be a hit with anyone on your list! You can read all about my experiences with the brand and its amazing team here.
