Urban Decay Lip Junkie Lip Gloss

I have been using these Lip Junkie glosses non-stop since they arrived on my doorstep a couple of weeks ago. As soon as I opened the box their vanilla-mint scent filled the air. I’m almost sure these are the best smelling glosses ever! Not only do they smell and taste amazing but they make my lips look extra juicy. They are pretty sheer to light in coverage which I actually prefer for Summer. I love that they are moisturizing and non-sticky. These Lip Junkie glosses are laced with Maxi Lip, a collagen boosting ingredient that moisturizes and plumps lips an average of 40% when used daily for a month! Upon application you feel that cooling sensation, it’s quite refreshing.

“Choose from 11 chic shades that range from pretty neutrals to high-voltage bright, in sheer to medium coverage. Guaranteed to turn even the straightest-edge chicks into FIENDS”

Naked, Runaway, and Wallflower have been in heavy rotation for me

EDIT: Lip Junkie Lip Gloss ($19) is available now at UrbanDecay.com

Urban Decay All Nighter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray

$29 at UrbanDecay.com

Also available in stores where Urban Decay is sold.

This groundbreaking formula mists on, ensuring that your makeup won’t budge for 16 hours. Really. Weightless but powerful, All-Nighter’s temperature control technology keeps your makeup from melting down when it’s warm and humid, or dehydrating when its cold and windy. All Nighter mist prevents loss of color, melting, sliding, caking, cracking, excess shine, fading blush, drooping eyeshadow and lip color disappearance. AND it’s formulated to resist moisture, so you can fearlessly sweat, cry, or get your Jacuzzi on… You are guaranteed makeup that always looks just-applied, without ever feeling sticky or tight. All Nighter is simply unlike any other product available and keeps you looking… flawless. All Nighter is allergy tested, dermatologist tested, vegan, cruelty free, and free of oil, parabens, and fragrance.

I really like this product a lot. It is easy to use and does what it says it will. I wear mineral makeup in the summer, mostly because my skin is too dry in the winter to wear it. Mineral makeup has the tendency to look powdery. This spray took away the powdery look immediately and my foundation blended to look like natural skin. My makeup really did last all day indoors AND outdoors in this Arizona heat, and that says a lot. I did not touch up once throughout the day, and I never really felt the need to. By Midnight I did have a bit of shine coming through, but it was more of a dewy look, which I liked.

Directions are simple: Shake well. Apply makeup. Hold the bottle 8″-10″ away and mist face 2-4 times. This is a must-have for mineral makeup users or anyone who wants their makeup to stay looking fresh all day or All Night Long.

Urban Decay makeup setting sprays are also available in oily skin or dry skin formulas.

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-on Eye Pencils in Zero, Ransom, and El Dorado

I can’t rave enough about these eye pencils. They are smooth enough to glide along your waterline, yet they actually stay put. Zero has been my staple waterline black liner for years. I’m finally venturing into trying other colors. Ransom is a beautiful bright pop of color that brings out the green in my eyes.

El Dorado, the gold pencil, was previously an exclusive mini in the Holiday Superstash Set.

It is now available in Full Size for Summer!

Zero – zealous black

Ransom – bright iridescent purple

El Dorado – gold

Urban Decay Cosmetics are sold at Sephora, Ulta, and UrbanDecay.com
