Product of the Week - Cover Girl Natureluxe Gloss Balm

I'm always on the lookout for the perfect combination of a lipgloss and lipbalm. There are many products that promise this combo, but not all deliver on their promises. When I was at Walmart this week I picked up a tube of Cover Girl Natureluxe Gloss Balm in Marble which is a really pretty pink. I love this stuff!!! It's perfect to wear all on it's own or layered under other lip products.

Here's what CoverGirl.com says:
Get the sheer color and shine of a gloss with the soft, lightweight feel of SPF 15 balm. Fortified with mango and shea butter, this feel-good formula leaves your lips feeling decadent and delicious.

The color I purchased is Marble(above)looks really pretty in the tube, but doesn't have much color payoff. That doesn't bother me since I was wanting something on the sheer side anyways. To me you get just the perfect sheer pink "your lips but better" shade and it is so moisturizing too. This product has no taste, but does have a mild sweet smell to it that I really like. This balm was around $5 at Walmart. I don't feel like that is a bad price since you really are getting 2 products in one - color and moisture. I love that this product feels good on your lips - not waxy, greasy and full of nasty ingredients like so many other lipbalms. Natureluxe feels great and lasts too. I cannot say enough good things about it. If you love a more natural gorgeous look then you will love this stuff! I find that it lasts about 3 hours and then I need to reapply.

Here's the shade list for you:

Lipglosses to Check Out

I thought I would share some of my favorite lipglosses today. I have tried tons over the years and these are some of the ones that really stand out to me and that I keep coming back to.

1. L'Oreal Color Juice in Berry Burst. I love these glosses! They have long been called the drugstore version of Lancome Juicy Tubes and I think they really do compare - except for price. Pictured is Berry Burst which I love, but they have tons of colors/flavors to choose from.

2. Wet N Wild Speed Gloss Energizing Lip Shine. I love the packaging for these! Some of my favorites include Manic, Untamed and Frenzied.

3. MAC Lipglass in PRRR. I have been using MAC Lipglass for years. PRRR is one of my favorites. Honestly I bought it several years ago after hearing it was a fave of Paris Hiltons. These glosses have some serious staying power and are totally worth the price.

4. MAC Tendertones in Tender Baby. Oh my goodness are these moisturizing! I sometimes like to just wear these on bare lips for the feeling. Fantastic alone or to top off your lipstick. This is the only color I have ever tried. Again if you don't wanna pay the price try L'Oreal's HIP glosses. They are packaged just like these and cost several dollars less. They have similar colors too.

5. NARS Turkish Delight. Bought this after hearing it was a fave of Kim Kardashians. I love her makeup and I love this gloss! I use it along with MAC Angel lipstick and it looks great. Want a cheap alternative to this gloss that is like the exact same? Check out Neutrogena Moisture Shine Gloss in Groove. Really I almost love the texture of this one better than the NARS. Don't tell!

6. Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush Gloss in Strawberry Fizz. These are some of my tried and true favorites. I have been using these glosses ever since they came out years ago and I cannot say enough good things about them. My top 2 favorite colors are Cupquake and Strawberry Fizz. These look really pretty over lipstick or alone. LOVE!!!
