Burt’s Bees Liquid Lipstick Not Perfect But Can Be With a Little Work
Burt’s Bees Liquid Lipstick ($9.99) is a new moisturizing liquid lipstick formula available in six shades that launched a few short weeks ago. As you know I’m not a huge fan of liquid lipsticks but Burt’s formula actually leans towards a glossy liquid lipstick and that totally caught my attention. If it isn’t matte, I’m all over it as I’m quite tired of matte lipsticks. I do think there have been some good strides this year in the creation of more glossy lipstick formulas. Products like Milani Amore Shine Liquid Lip Color, L’Oreal Colour Riche Shine Lipstick, NYX Slip Tease Lip Lacquer, and Maybelline Color Sensational Shine Compulsion Lipstick have restored my faith that makeup brands are actually listening to us and know we don’t want more matte lipsticks (or at least I don’t)!
Burt’s Bees Liquid Lipstick is one of those formulas you have to doctor up a little bit to get them looking great. At $10 each they are a little expensive to doctor up. I’m definitely one of those people that wants makeup to work right out of the package. I don’t really want to bring in other items from my own collection to get them to work out you now? But in some cases, like this one, I don’t mind so much.
Here’s why.
