Lip product addict tag

I'm a big fan of a good lipstick, so this tag seemed like an appropriate re-entrance into blogging. We will see how long the enthusiasm lasts.

1. Best lip balm/ treatment: I took this as 2 questions, for balm I chose the Dior lip glow-- it's nourishing while still giving your lips some pigment. Best treatment is the Caudalie lip treatment. Moisturizing, comes in a bullet--not a pot, and it isn't too emollient that it melts away (I'm looking at you fresh lip treatments)

2. Best eye catching red: hands down, YSL pur couture #1. Perfect neutral red, not too orange or blue. I don't use a liner with it, and it stays put for hours. Love.

3. Best luxury and drug store: luxury hands down goes to Guerlain rouge g's. Substantial packaging and a beautiful formula. Drugstore was tough, since I don't really reach for them, but I guess I would go with the nyx butter glosses-- they're very comfortable and moisturizing.

4. Best MAC lipstick: I'm not a fan of mac lipsticks, and never reach for mine. But, I guess I will go with creme cup- easy, basic color.

5. Liner yes or no: usually no. Not a fan.

6. Best gloss: Dior addict ultra glosses. Not gritty or sticky- and don't have a nauseating smell- so that's a plus.

7.  Most disappointing: YSL rouge volupte. I have 3 shades and I've tried different application methods, and no matter what they settle into my lines, look terrible, and have no lasting power.

8. Something extra: Burberry lipsticks. Love the packaging, love the formulas, love the colors, love it all.
