Prize Details
Lightning Sheer Lip Gloss -

What it is:
A sheer, sparkling lip gloss from tattoo-artist Kat Von D.
What it does:
Add shine and dimension to your pucker with Lightning Sheer Lip Gloss, a heavenly-scented, sparkle-inflected sheer gloss. Designed by reality television star Kat Von D, especially for Sephora, the gloss is very versitile. Add a glittery, super-sheer coat to bare lips, or layer over Painted Love Lipstick for high impact! This gloss comes in celestial shades that create a virtual bolt of lightning, bringing an edgy-glam creativity to your makeup.
What else you need to know:
The sleek tube is stenciled with silver roses and arrives packaged in a silk-screened black and silver box that is itself a work of art-inspired by Kat's favorite tattoo.

Maybelline Wet Shine Diamonds Review

This discontinued product may be found at your local dollar store.
I found it works best over another product, like lipstick or lip pencil to make it last longer. A little bit goes a long way. It makes your lips look spectacular.
It does not last for very long, as the warmth of your body kind of spreads it out. If you don't mind reapplying, then this product is for you. It is not at all sticky.
Some colors are more sheer than others. Many of these have been identified as close MAC Dazzleglass dupes on some makeup message boards.





Spoiled in Rubies







Pink Carats







Jewels 'N Berries




PROS

- Inexpensive, if you lose it in a purse or pocket, it won't really matter
- Pretty
- Not sticky

CONS

- Hard to find
- Have to reapply very often
- Not sticky enough
* When worn alone, melts & only silver glitter is left.
* Glitter Migrates to rest of face

I give this product 4 out of 5 stars!

WOW, I went to the L'Oreal website & these are DISCONTINUED.
You can still find some of them on ebay as well as Brigette's Boutique. Don't forget to check your local drugstores before you shop on line. You may find these items on clearance!

EDIT: Update, these are NOT discontinued. They redesigned the packaging to reflect the new product line name. L'Oreal HiP Studio Secrets Shine Struck Liquid Lip Color

They are very pigmented. They remind me of a cream to powder product.
I found out early on the way to get the best wear out of these was to put a lipstick underneath. I love the natural oils in them. They condition my lips & the color lasts a long time. If you want to keep that shine, you have to retouch though.

If you are searching for a less expensive alternative to MAC Dazzleglass, you may be interested in this product!

This lipgloss has a pleasant vanilla smell. My 12 year old daughter said is kind of smells like sugar cookies. It also has a sweet vanilla taste.

Walgreen's sells them for $5.99 each. CVS sells them for $6.99 each. CVS is having a BOGO this week. Buy 1 Get 1 half off.

I'd love to collect them all.
So far, I have 3.
