Gerard Cosmetics Lipgloss Review

I love all my Gerard cosmetics lip glosses. These are the first ever lip glosses that I saw start the trend of a light and mirror on their packaging. I have 8 of them and think the pigmentation, smell and design are great. They are quite expensive for lip glosses but when you buy them with their deals they are well worth their money. I would recommend trying a cheaper version like the Nyx butter glosses first and if your on a budget. I am not normally a gloss girl and they can be a little sticky onto your lips but you are paying for the brand to add to collection so I think they are worth it.

I brought Candy Kiss as my first Gerard Cosmetics product (which is Shaaanxo's lipgloss). I fell in love with the colour and could not wait to receive it! The packaging looks fancy and you get a nice amount of product! Its clear packaging so you see the colour directly, with a small mirror on the side and a light on the wand when opened. The light is a good touch but sometimes it can be a bit blinding! The lipgloss itself is a sticky formula but I find it does settle down after wear yet creates a gorgeous finish. This colour is quite light but the product is very opaque I dont enjoy wearing it alone as I find I can't get a smooth application but I LOVE it over nude or pink lipsticks such as MAC Creme Cup.

I brought rose hill after hearing many rave reviews from youtubers. I have to say I'm not really thrilled with this product but that could be because I don't like lipglosses but I will keep trying it and hopefully my opinion of these will be swayed. These are very opaque for lipglosses and you can wear alone or on top of lipsticks. The product has a consistent formula and not patchy. The smell is not very nice, a very fake chemical smell, its really hard to describe but not too overpowering. The packaging is quite neat with a mirror on the side and lights in the lid. However I do find the light to be very annoying and have looked at trying to turn the lights off but with no success The product itself is quite expensive. I brought mine off trade me for about $30. It is best to buy these when youtubers give out discount coupon codes and shipping is free. I have brought a bundle recently this way from gerard cosmetics and just waiting on them to arrive.

I bought the colour Coral Craze with a discount code, that Shaaanxo posted on her Facebook. I love the colour, but i am so disappointed formular wise. It is veeeery tacky and not smooth at all. Personally, I really did not enjoy this lipgloss. It budged throughout the day and was not comfortable to wear.

I brought the shade candy kiss because it is shaaanxo's lip gloss she made and I loved the colour of it and had always wanted to try Gerard cosmetics products. I like the packaging of the lip gloss, the gold is very nice and you can clearly see the colour through the tube. I am not a huge fan of the light, it is quite bright but I can see the useful side of having a light on it. I love the gloss, it isn't too sticky and doesn't feel like some of those cheap glosses you can get that are just horrible. I love the colour of it, very natural and you can put it on other lip products to add an extra touch. Definitely keen to try more of their products.

I mean, I'm not really a lipgloss person. I'm all about dem matte lips, baby. But, once in a blue moon I'll go for a glossy lip (more often, if I'm not wearing makeup but don't want to look dead) and despite my larger collection of MAC lipgalsses (I am SUCH a sucker for LE packaging....) I tend to reach for my Gerard glosses first. I have two fairly neutral pinks, so they go with about anything and the formula is really nice, not sticky at all. They also don't smell awful, which is a huge thumbs up!
