JA Cosmetics ELF Lip Gloss Stick, 0.099 oz

Ok, so I saw these in store and I was reallllly wanting something with color but not sheer glossiness or lipstick (i feel like it just bleeds too much). So I bought this. THE MOST AMAZING BUY IN YEARS!!!!!! Sadly I only bought one, in Pink Umbrellas, but I will be going back for more. It absolutely lives up to the swatch and has amazing pigmentation. I am super fair skinned but my lips do have a nice, naturally pinkish tint already and this just made them look AHHMazing. Great for lightskinned blondes. Doesn't bleed AT ALL either, which was a relief. The only slight con was the fact that it goes on super smooth but does dry out my lips slightly. I just pat on some EOS first though, and not a problem! Definitely a great product!

I bought this in In the Nude, Tiki Torches and Pink Umbrellas. Really love the Nude and Pink, pretty much like a lipstick crayon. However, the Tiki Torches has glitters in it and mostly sheer. Definitely would buy again, but in the shades with no glitters :)

I got summer nights in a mystery bag and liked it so i figured I'd try more, pruchase pink umbrella and movie star. Awesome. Summer nights is kinda coraly on my pale skin and has shimmer. The other two are perfect. Movie star is not as dark as you might think just a nice muted reddish. more of a tinted balm. and the darker colors seem to fade a bit quicker than i hoped, but still good. 

I bought this product in the shade 'pink umbrella', the stick leaves a lot of pigment which I really like and the shade is perfect. The color goes on really smooth and leaves your lips feeling smooth without being too glossy or too matte. What I love about this product is that it has a minty smell and feel, you can feel it tingle a little when you apply it. I love this product, if I had to give a critique it would be that the pigment seems to clump up just a little when you've been wearing the product for a while. My solution is to just use the stick in combination with a chapstick to get both color and extra moisture.

I have these in Summer nights, Tiki torches and Coco Loco. I love them all, but summer nights in my favorite. Now these are not super pigmented, however they are great for everyday use, especially if you want a more natural look. So if you want more color, these probably aren't for you. I love wearing these to class or just to polish up my look a bit.
