It is getting uncomfortably hot outside. And I have a terrible summer cold. Not so fun. But I’m taking comfort in my new favorite glosses – bareMinerals Marvelous Moxie Lipgloss. The cooling minty flavor is so soothing. A blend of shea, avocado, and murumuru (a palm native to Amazon Rainforest) butters is hydrating and nourishing. The formula is thicker but not sticky, qualities lending to a longer lasting color.

The color is sheer and ultra-glossy. I’ve been playing with a number of shades and the color is so sheer that there isn’t a tremendous difference between them. I find myself reaching for Trail Blazer, a nude gold, and Party Starter, a fiery coral, most often. I also love Hot Shot, a flamingo pink. As a bonus, these glosses could make your lips appear fuller: based on an independent clinical study, women saw a 52% improvement in lip fullness in as little as 4 weeks.
