Jeffree Star Cosmetics The gloss Glitter Fantasy
So during Black Friday I went completely nuts and ordered every set/bundle that were available, these included. I guess when i buy if not now right? I have not tried any of Jeffree’s glosses before this and so I though getting a bundle would be worth it. I chose the Glitter bundle from beautylish because I’m into glitters and I feel like Jeffree’s glosses would be best in the glitter formula.
This set includes 12 shades (there are 18 shades in total)
Website’s description: The Gloss Glitter Fantasy Bundle Collect all 12 of Jeffree Star's Glitter Fantasy Lip Glosses. Discover the lip gloss so good that Jeffree Star calls it “sickening.” Featuring a diverse range of shades that goes from soft and subtle to vibrant and bold, The Gloss from Jeffree Star Cosmetics offers a semi-sheer, high-shine finish that never feels sticky.
Designed for effortless application, the streamlined applicator disperses product evenly and easily on lips
The wet-finish, high-shine formula glides over lips without ever feeling sticky or tacky
Featuring a delicate crème brûlée scent that’s delectable without being overpowering
And here is what Jeffree says on his website: THE GLOSS! This is our first ever lip gloss formula!
Choose from two finishes, Glitter Fantasy or Extreme Shine! 18 unique shades with luxurious statement packaging. Non-sticky and smells like light vanilla crème brûlée.
Our Glitter Fantasy formula shades include: Sky High, Ice Cold, Crystal Kiss, Diamond Juice, Candy Drip, Wet Peach, Shock Wave, Spank Me, Safe Word, Sequin Glass, Crystal Climax & Her Glossiness.
Our Extreme Shine formula shades include: Legends Only, Control Freak, I'm The Boss, Diet Freeze, Dirty Royalty & Midnight Lick.
There you have it. I chose the glitter fantasy finish, so I can’t really comment on the extreme shine formula.
First thing that I would like to comment on these glosses is on the packaging! Kudos for him to come out with such playful and creative tube. The lid is shaped like a dome and the whole thing looks like some kind of wand (at least to me). It’s quite heavy (much heavier than normal lipglosses) so it kinda prevents me from wanting to bring it in my purse.
I have tried all the shades, and my review is these are best used as lip toppers, rather to be worn alone. Each shade has quite a sheer base color, but the highlight is at the shimmers. Now, just using the shimmers on my bare lips didn’t seem pretty at all (for example some shades had blue/green shimmer and that didnt go well on my bare lips). I prefer to use them on top of a matte lipstick or a cream lipstick to add dimension. However, if you like just plain shimmers on lips, go bare.
The formula is a bit sticky (does not feel like a balm) and the finish is shiny. It stayed for quite a long time (compared to other of my lipglosses) so that’s agreat thing. Those glitter actually stayed even after I had a meal.
I have divided them by alphabetical order, into groups of 4 shades each. The first four are Candy Drip, Crystal Climax, Crystal Kiss, Diamond Juice.
Candy Drip: Metallic candy pink with purple and blue reflects
Crystal Climax: Warm brick with silver reflects and a metallic finish
Crystal Kiss: Icy white with pink reflects and a metallic finish silver
Diamond Juice: Soft champagne with gold reflects and a metallic finish
