Gerard Cosmetics - Color Your Smile Lightened Lip Gloss Review/Swatches


I am going to start off by saying... I AM IN LOVE, yes!!! that's right I am in love with a lip gloss hehe!
Gerard Cosmetics has come out with something amazing. We all know that there are hundreds of products in the market just like this, but this is a first for me. A product so pigmented, vibrant, and rich in colour that's what every makeup lover wants and needs! They have quite a few different shades.
Also added mirror and lighting inside is just pure genius if you ask me!!! :D Especially for a night out, I mean come on who wouldn't want that. Now I don't have to go to the washroom every time to touch up my lips :p
I shall stop typing now and just move on to the exciting part.. SWATCHES

- They go on creamy
- It has a nice gloss to it as well
- Doesn't feel too sticky on the lips
- Amazing pigmentation (The lips have only one coat on them )
- Long lasting (I can't tell you how long, but they leave a nice stain when they wear off)


 ROSE HILL By JACLYN HILL

This very first one is a Jaclyn Hill Collection by Gerard Cosmetics. She teamed up with them to create her own shades for lip glosses & lipsticks. OMG! I forgot to mention, they have a LIPSTICK line too.

     

Beautiful rosy pink colour


 WILD ORCHID

This was the one I was looking most forward to. Firstly, because I don't have a shade of gloss in this lovely colour, and secondly, who wouldn't be excited to have a colour like this. 

     

Lovely shade of orchid purple


SUMMER SUN

Now I know, this isn't a colour you'd wear during the Fall/Winter season because it's too bright blablabla.. but guess what? I don't care lol. If I feel a colour looks good on me or goes with my eye makeup I wear it! and who would even want to wait till Summer to apply this gorgeous shade. 
NOT ME :D

  

Stunning shade of red-ish orange


NUDE
(These pictures have not been edited)

YAY! I finally found the perfect shade of nude for my skin tone. Not too pale and not too showy. This shade wouldn't look good on every skin tone though.

Last but not least, is a vampy colour. EVERYONE NEEDS TO HAVE A SHADE LIKE THIS IN THEIR COLLECTION! We should all step out of our comfort zone and sport a colour like this at least ONCE :)
