finally the perfect milky coral lip gloss!

>> Saturday, August 7, 2010

I am happy to report my search for the perfect milky coral lip gloss has ended! All thanks to MAC's lipglass in Pink Lemonade. I went shopping w/ my mom the other day but I wasn't really looking to shop, I just wanted to spend time with her since I've been missing her so much since I had moved out. We went to Nordstrom and she was stocking up on her MAC items when she asked me if I wanted anything. Of course there were a million things I wanted but I said no as an attempt to prove my independence, plus Im not someone who likes people I love to buy me things I could buy technically buy myself - especially my own mother, she has bought me enough in my lifetime! I dont want to give the impression I could buy anything now, my budget has been strict as ever since Ive moved out! I say "technically" because although I could buy those "wants not needs" items it would be in poor financial judgement. Anyhoo, I going off into a tangent again...back on track. So my mom kept pushing it wanting to buy me something and I eventually caved only because for some reason my resistance seemed to be insulting her. I browsed through the lipglass and Pink Lemonade caught my eye. I swatched it on my hand and it was EXACTLY what I was looking for!

Coral has been a hot color this season and I've fallen victim to the trend. I've read so many raves about  "it" coral colored cosmetics such as Essie's Van Dgo (however you spell it) to Revlon's Coral Reef, to MAC's Ever Hip and Peachstock. I am astonished how this lip glass isn't mentioned along with those names. Its such a pretty color! I've been looking for a coral lip gloss in particular but didn't like Coral Reef because I wanted a really nice milky coral, with just a hint of pink. Coral Reef was too dark and orange-toned for my liking. I cant stress enough how perfect Pink Lemonade is. I assume this was over-looked largely in part of its name - PINK lemonade...well whatever it doesn't matter, all that matters is that you pick this up!!! Its sooo gorgeous!

Again, due to my unprofessional camera I must say this picture doesn't do it justice. The picture above is more like the color you will see on your lips
