Oh, Annabelle. You had me at "hello".

I tried to wait as long as possible to post this, because after trying it out a couple times, I simply refused to believe anything could be this awesome. I figured that nothing (not even me!) is this perfect. There had to be some strange side-effect!

But it is. And it doesn’t even make your lips fall off. Which, bee-tee-dubs, is a total bonus.

The product in question today is Annabelle‘s Le Gloss Star in Flash Dance.Texture: Can we say amazing? Because it totally is. Think Vaseline — plush but smooth. It’s not even the normal non-sticky kind of feel, where it’s slippery but somehow actually a little bit sticky if you open your mouth too fast or something. It’s as non-sticky as lip balm, I kid you not!Wear: Though it is very slightly drying (though probably not for people whose lips don’t hate them, cracking and bleeding on a regular basis despite an obsessive lip balm habit,) this gloss wears like nobody’s buisness. It’s no Chanel Rouge Allure Laque, of course, but man is it impressive! I know I always say that you either get non-stickiness or long-wearing powers, but this has both — I can get probably three or four hours out of this with minimal eating (but lots of chatting!) The thing is, once the gloss is all gone, Flash Dance leaves the most incredible stain… MLBB to the max!

(what it looks like after four hours or so, or if you only put a tiny bit on)


Colour:
Yah, so I kinda just went over this. But whatever, because it’s so incredible that I feel no guilt on covering the topic again. It’s a coral-y magenta-pink that has freaking amazing pigmentation… I can put a tiny dot of this in the middle of my lips and spread it out for a nice stain, or apply a “normal person’s” amount of gloss for major impact (below). It has similar undertones as my lips, but just looks… better.

What I define as a “normal person’s layer”


Load ’em up! It’s pretty major… love it!


Finally, packaging: Simple and sturdy! Normal doe-foot applicator, and I like that the tube mimics a squeeze-gloss rather than a lipstick — it means you can get out every last drop, which I promise you will want to do!The verdict? Holy grail, people. I absolutely love this! A tube is $7.95, but like a lot of other Annabelle products, is usually on sale for about $6. Let’s just put it this way to get the message across: I would hate Annabelle if they hiked up the price to $20, but I love it so much that I’d totally still buy it.

I have my eye on the regular Le Gloss (the “Star” part of the name indicates glitter) in Breathless. I’m always on the lookout for a nice baby pink nude, so here’s to hoping this is it!
