This two in one Glossy Lips lip Gloss gives your lips nourishment from organic jojoba
and olive oil plus shimmer.”
Continuing on with my introduction of Lavera let me share a truly moisturizing lip gloss
that has to be one of the most wearable reds I have ever encountered,
perfect for those who aren't quite as daring with colour.
The packaging for the Trend Sensitive Organic Glossy Lips Lip Glosses isn't anything fancy
but the simplistic approach works really well for the brand and I find it pleasing enough.
My only qualm with the packaging is the doe foot applicator that so many glosses come with,
yes they do the job bit not quite as well as a brush applicator does.
As that is my only problem I think we can all sleep easy haha!
I was sent shade Magic Red which is a glossy red brown shade which can look berry toned in some lights.
Magic Red is almost metallic in finish and has lots of microscope shimmer particles that reflect light
and make the lips appear fuller and lovely and plump, the shimmer particles are not rough or gritty.
Swatched on my arm Magic Red appears as a deep red/brown burgundy shade
yet applied it sheers out and leaves the lips with a lovely light hint of colour.
If like I colour scares you a little it is a great pathway into bolder shades
but if you enjoy bold statement lips perhaps it is best layered over another lip shade?
The Trend Sensitive Organic Glossy Lips Lip Gloss are very moisturising and hydrating in formula,
they contain organic jojoba and olive oils not to mention organic cocoa butter
which I am sadly allergic to so I couldn't properly test this for a wear time
but never one to leave that ground uncovered I asked a friend to road test the formula
and she found it light, non-sticky and hydrating on the lips.
She reported that it did not with stand drinking or eating – what lip gloss does?
However under normal circumstances it wore for just under two hours
and did not bleed throughout the wear.
