Stila's Lip Enamel Luxe Gloss For Ultra-Pigmented Glossy Lips

Reviews
Christine |

Stila’s Lip Enamel Luxe Gloss ($22.00 each) is new for fall, and they are simply amazing. Six shades of patent-leather, ultra-glossy opaque lipgloss? I’m so there. I’ve only tried three of the six, and they’re all stunning. The gloss is fairly thick, but I didn’t experience any tackiness really–these feel like lip lacquers or liquid lipstick more or less.  These glosses will be available September 2009, but you might see them pop up on stilacosmetics.com earlier if you keep your fingers crossed.

  • Joy is a deep red-burgundy, but it’s actually subdued a bit. It’s not a scarlet red, but it’s still noticeably red. This one had the best finish, pay off, and overall look from the three I tried. It was thick, luxe, and covered in one coat.
  • Giggle is a hot fuchsia pink. There is *no* room for shyness with this one. You wear it and ROCK IT! I don’t know if I’ve ever come across a brighter pink lipgloss in my life. Extremely pigmented, bright as can be, and super glossy.
  • Happiness is a softer, more medium pink. This one felt the sheerest of the three I tried, though it was still mostly opaque, giving my lips a good dose of color.

Giggle reminds me of OCC’s Pageant. I actually really dislike Joy… it doesn’t look like it would be a flattering colour on anybody really.

I find them beautiful in the tube, very nice when swatched on the arm but the rendering on the lips is not gracious at all. Very messy. Too bad cause Giggle is pretty.

Would you recommend the giggle stila gloss or an occ lip tar in the color anime or pretty boy? Please respond! Trying to decide if I want to buy this gloss online or not!
