KKW Beauty x Mario Glosses Review, Photos, Swatches
Super Nude
KKW Beauty Super Nude Gloss ($18.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a light peach with warm undertones and barely-there flecks of gold. It had semi-sheer coverage, which was as expected based on the brand’s description of it being sheer with a very milky quality to its finish. The latter resulted in color that settled into lip lines (both vertical and horizontal ones for me), despite the actual gloss going on more evenly and didn’t have streaking along the edges. The texture felt smooth and was moderately tacky from what I could tell. It wore well for three hours but was lightly hydrating. There was no discernible scent or taste.
The brand has set a restock date for the KKW x Mario collection for 4/20 at noon PST.

Juicy
KKW Beauty Juicy Gloss ($18.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a medium, peachy-coral with warm undertones and fine pearl. The shimmer was hard to see applied, which I was surprised about, as I nearly thought it was just a cream finish after I had applied it for the first time! The texture was smooth, light-medium in thickness but lightweight, and moderately tacky. It had medium coverage (it was described as “pale sheer nude”), but it gathered in every lip line I had, though the gloss itself went on without streaking. It lasted for three and a half hours and was lightly hydrating. There was no discernible scent or taste.

Oh my….these are super “lip-liney”. When I saw Jkissa apply these, I knew how disastrously lip-liney these would turn out to be. And on her lips they were patchy looking, as well.
I feel like this is a common thing with nude glosses like Super Nude; MAC C-Thru applies similarly on me. I’m surprised at how bad Juicy is though.
I just can’t support anything from that family.
Lip liney glosses are so awful, but these were pretty shades.
This looked so orange on everyone on YouTube, but looks pink on you! Just shows how different video vs photos are
