Beaute Cosmetics Liquid Gel Stain for Lips and Cheeks (Flouron BCLS 500) |
When products from Beauté Cosmetics arrived from their Desert Collection, my first thought what was it they thinking with such a shocking bright orange neon color for lip gloss? Another tube was a pale beige that I feared would make me looked drained of blood like an extra in a vampire movie. Last of the lippies I received was more what I was used to being this ready to wow, knockout deep red. Yet, I was met with a big surprise. When you look at the colors in the tubes you see one thing and once on the lips, you see another so incredible it dazzles.
I can't contain my excitement, especially when it comes to their Liquid Gel Stain for Lips and Cheeks. That wild orange shade of Flouron BCLS 500 that I almost was afraid to wear changed within a few minutes into this gorgeous tulip sort of medium pink once this highly pigmented stain touched my lips. This color was striking and a perfect choice for summer with how it really played up my warm complexion.
Since this is a stain, the feeling was drier than a gloss or a lipstick, but you can layer it like I chose to. Beauté Cosmetics has suggestions of color combinations that work well together. I also think topping with some clear gloss or lip balm was also a lovely effect.

Long wear lipsticks move aside because this stain wears through
eating, drinking, and until you decide to take it off. Don't worry about
finding any color on your glass or cups because Beauté's formula is incredible.
Besides, this one, there are three other stain choices available.
When you use this product on your cheeks, you need to work quickly on your freshly moisturized face since there is only about 12 seconds before it dries. The easiest method I found was dropping a little moisturizer in your hand and dab color near it before hurrying to combine then blending with your fingertips. Wash your hands immediately to avoid staining.
I also had the opportunity to try one of their six Weightless Lip Creme in Masochist WLC 110. This is one of the best lippies for such pampering creamy comfort and for chic, riveting color that I have ever tried. I am talking about an all out, true dark red so captivating that all eyes can't help but focus on you. The company describes this color as Helmut Newton Red. I, on the other hand, just refer to it as that perfect showstopper red with such a dreamy lightweight texture.

Just as fantastic is how this highly hydrating formula also seemed to make my lips look somewhat fuller with its collagen stimulating ability and zero pain compared to some plumping lip glosses.
What do you think of me wearing Masochist? |
Instead of pumping to disperse the product, your task is easier with a doe-foot sponge applicator. Something else wonderful about Masochist is you can do a full coat or apply and blot for more of a sheer stain and then finish with clear gloss.
You'll also love how long this non-sticky, beautiful Weightless Lip Creme color can last. This color lasted on me for hours after dinner last night without fading, smearing, and ending up on my teeth. In fact, I swiped most of it off before I went to bed and the color I left was still there in the morning.
Out of the 12 Luminous Volume Glosses, I received Skin Trade 004. Seriously, I was shocked at how this went from a sickly pale beige to a sheer peach-nude color that is so versatile. I don't know how the company manages that beautiful transformation from tube color to lips, but I am impressed at their technology with this feat. This gloss can also help give your lips a slightly fuller appearance, which I also appreciated.
This one has a brush inside. The only complaint is a few of those bristle bent, but it didn't ruin my application. I just would have preferred the doe-foot applicator.
The Liquid Gel Stain retails for $29. Weightless Lip Cremes sell for $26 and the Luminous Volume Glosses run $26 as well. Have you tried these products because I can't recommend them highly enough! Visit Beauté Cosmetics to shop or find where else to buy. Connect with them on Facebook or Twitter.
