Trend alert! Fall 2010 is filled with products that look like lipstick, but are actually glosses! The latest of these hybrid lip luxuries to cross my desk is the Hi-Shine Hydrating Glosstick, by Jemma Kidd Make Up School.
Inspired by Jemma’s childhood in Barbados (lucky Jemma!) the Hi-Shine Hydrating Glosstick is available in five bouquet-bright shades: Bridgetown, Hibiscus, Sugar Cane, Holders and Paradise. The formula is moisturizing beyond belief. It’s so rich, and so emollient, it feels more like a sinfully luxe lip treatment than a lipstick! Sun worshippers should also rejoice, as this product has an SPF 15!
Beyond the fabulocity of the product itself, the packaging is also beautiful and unique. The angular cut of the lipstick (called “chisel bullet”) assists with precise and even application. The matte black tube is adorned with a glossy black grapevine design that is so beautiful, I wish I owned a matching mirrored compact! The lipstick tube locks into the lid. Once pressed in, the tube is ejected from the lid for application.
