The Summer Season: VS Makeup Be Mine Lipstick

VS Makeup Be Mine Perfect Lipstick ($12.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a creamy, brightened watermelon pink. It’s totally opaque, and it wears well–a nice three to four hours before it starts to fade. It has a soft, glossy sheen but no shimmer. VS Makeup Lipsticks are sleeper hits, in my opinion, because they really have amazing texture, color pay off, and wear.

Is this the right pink lipstick for you? Would you wear it?

The Summer Season is a series of posts featuring bright, vibrant shades of coral, orange, and pink lipsticks and lipglosses — all perfect for a summer of fun — that runs through July 2010.

So pretty! How would you say it compares to Laura Mercier’s Hydrangea? The photos look very similar to me, and Hydrangea has been hard for me to get a hold of!

I’ll have to check this out! I bought Giulette last week, and it’s too red on my rosy lips. Does Sephora accept returns if the product has been used?

I agree, VS Lipsticks are wonderful. The colors are gorgeous (Scrumptious, a soft peach, is a fave) and I love the way they feel on the lips. Bonus: no scent or taste whatsoever!

VS makeup is totally underappreciated. I am a big fan of their glosses and their lip pencils are great too! I need to branch out and try a lipstick. Their eyeshadows have great pigment too!

Please, please, please swatch or review Victoria’s Secret lip products more often! I think they’re incredible and I’d really like to know more about them.

sooo cute!!
i normally don’t opt for such strong shades as this, but since it’s summer, i say bringg it on! xP
i’d pair these lippies with a bold stroke of a waterproof liquid eyeliner and i’m so ready for summer!

I have been lusting after this lipstick since this particular post showing it first went up…and still haven’t gotten it. I’d like to go get it this weekend, but don’t really know how well it would work with my coloring. I’m quite fair with warm undertones, I just don’t know if this would look garish. Guess there is only one real way to find out!

Did VS repackage their lipsticks? I just bought Be Mine today and I noticed yours is in a silver tube and mine’s in a black plastic one. The packaging seems kinda flimsy to me, but oh well. Be Mine is a gorgeous color and I wouldn’t have ventured out into VS makeup if it weren’t for your blog. Thanks, Christine!
