"Lipgloss Doesn't Have to be Sticky" Part 4: Covergirl



A lipgloss that makes your lips look good while giving you that "I just brushed my teeth" feeling? An interesting combo that had me intrigued for sure, and thus I had to try Covergirl's WetSlicks Amazemint glosses.

After about a month of trying them, I must say I like them. These are non-sticky and feel light on my lips. The 'cool' part of these is that they include Crest peppermint oil to give you a 'minty breath sensation.' I must admit I was surprised by how much I liked the tingly feeling you get when you apply this gloss on your lips.

I tried out Plum Crazy, which gives a nice pinky/plum shine to my lips. I can actually see msyelf repurchasing this as I use it at least once a week. The other colour I was sent is Pink Positive, which is very sheer and doesn't show on my lips. I have to use this on top of lipstick.

At approx. $6.99 Canadian, these are easy on the makeup budget.

Anyone else try these? Thoughts?

Plum Crazy is lovely. You're right - I can't see the colour in Pink Positive. :)

I am always intrigued when I walk past these but for some reason I just hate the packaging lol... might pick up one of the more pigmented shades next time I'm at the drugstore though. =)

@bunee @catherine -- I don't love the packaging either. Definitely worth a look though in terms of consistency, quality and price.

@anonymous -- didn't have tickets! Wish I could have gone

@Witoxicity: Plum Crazy is nice -- do you get this where you are?

I might add Plum Crazy to my wishlist. I haven't seen much from CG lipglosses but I can see why you use it more than once a week. That's a fab color in your swatch pic!

In answer to your question: No, Covergirl isn't available here, which is quite annoying. Well, you have some brands and you don't have some brands. That's how it is! :)
