Lorac Love, Lust, & Lace Alter Ego Lipgloss Collection

The Lorac Love, Lust, & Lace Alter Ego Lipgloss Collection ($25) is a new, limited edition Lorac Holiday 2015 Gift Set that contains six shades of Lorac Alter Ego Lipgloss in 4 limited edition shades and two best selling shades.

I’ll be the first one to tell you that my favorite lipgloss set for the Holidays and the one I look forward to the most is the Lorac Holiday Lipgloss Sets. They are always such a great bang for your buck, include a variety of generously sized lipglosses, and have a great formula backing them up. This year, Lorac went one step further and switched up their normal gloss formula and replaced it in their Holiday sets with the brand new Lorac Alter Ego Lipgloss that launched with the Lorac Summer 2015 Collection. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with the past lipgloss sets but I couldn’t be happier that they launched the Holiday sets with the new Alter Ego formula as I LOVE this gloss formula!

Let’s take a look!

The Lorac Love, Lust, & Lace Alter Ego Lipgloss Collection is $25 and includes 6 x 0.13 oz shades of Alter Ego Lipgloss. By now you likely did the math so you know what an incredible value the set is as it contains six full size Alter Ego Lipgloss which typically cost $15 each which means this set has $90 worth of lipgloss. SCORE!

Now the set I’m reviewing is an Ulta Exclusive Set that includes four limited edition shades and two shades that are already in the Lorac permanent range. There is also another set with different shades available on Lorac’s website. I don’t know for sure but I imagine they’ll also release different sets at Kohl’s and possible on HSN as they have done year’s past.

This set includes:

  • Duchess (Permanent)
  • Heartthrob
  • Lolita
  • Mademoiselle
  • Seductress (Permanent)
  • Temptress

Each gloss comes housed in limited edition packaging inspired by Lorac’s Love, Lust, and Lace Holiday theme of solid royal blue with a floral lace overlay. I love their theme this year and wish it extended to the Lorac Mega Pro 2 Palette but that’s only a solid blue in color but doesn’t have the pretty lace overlay!

Alter Ego Lipgloss have vanilla fragrance and flavor and are formulated whit antioxidants such as Acai Berry, Pomegranate, Grape Seed Extract, and Vitamins C and E. Each gloss has a slanted flocked applicator for application.

Honestly, the name might make you think of Lorac Alter Ego Lipstick and you might think these have some sort of matte finish due to the fact that the products share the same name. But no worries, these are highly hydrating glosses and have a completely different formula compared to the lipstick range.

I really love how plush and glossy these make my lips. The gel-like formula feels quite hydrating but never sticky or tacky plus they give my lips a nice pouty look. All the shades in this set are nicely pigmented with sheerer to medium color pay off when built. They wear for around three to four hours without drying out and keeping lips pleasantly moist through the wear.

When I tried them in the Summer I thought they were wonderfully formulated and still feel the same so I’m quite happy that they are now available in such a great value set. There are going to be a lot of Holiday Lipgloss Sets you’ll be shopping as the Holiday season grows nearer but don’t doubt that the Lorac Love, Lust, & Lace Alter Ego Lipgloss Collection is by far one of the best bangs for your buck in terms of quality, value, and variety.

Loves this set!

The shades in this Lorac Love, Lust, & Lace Alter Ego Lipgloss Collection will be available at Ulta and Ulta.com exclusively but there’s also another set you can get now with different shades on Lorac’s website at loraccosmetics.com.

    My favorite Holiday lip gloss set purchase to date was Lorac’s Tie Dye set from a couple of years ago. They were amazing.

  • Penny

    Love the Lorac Alter Ego Lip Gloss! This looks like a great set! These glosses are great because they don’t have glittery sparkles in them…great shine without the glitter! I will have to seriously consider these…and great price too! 🙂

    • Isabella Muse

      exactly! love me some shimmer but happy to have a gloss set sans shimmer and sparkle!

  • Lori

    Wow, every single color looks great! I like their formula too – this set is definitely going on my wish list!!

  • Claudia

    Did you buy this set or was it a PR sample because I have checked Ulta’s website for the past 2 weeks and never find it :/ I really want to try it though and your swatches look great!

    • Isabella Muse

      Hi Claudia I disclosed on the top and bottom of this post it was a PR sample. It’s available for purchase now on Lorac’s website just with a different color variation, mentioned all this in the post 🙂 Hope it helps!?

      • Claudia

        I am sorry Muse. I was looking at your mobile site which does not show neither the PR Sample button nor the Disclosure statement box. I checked for them there since that is what pulls up on my phone and I have also read when you tell people this in the past.

        • Isabella Muse

          Sorry Claudia! It’s supposed to show! Apologies for that, I’ll look into it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m getting ready to launch a new mobile design so hopefully it’ll be all cleared up with that launch!

  • Trina
