S.X.Y lips

Last Month Payless hosted a few giveaways on their Facebook fan page & I was lucky enough to win two prizes.
I received the S.X.Y by unforgettable moments light-up lipgloss in shades "T.G.I.F" & "Raspberry Martini".

The packaging is pretty nice.


Top: T.G.I.F & Bottom: Raspberry Martini


The packaging has A mirror on one side


T.G.I.F is a pretty reddish color. I really like this one. It's probably my favorite out of the two. (I had trouble getting my camera to pick up the color)


Raspberry Martini is a fun bright pink color that is the perfect shade for the Summer.


Swatches: T.G.I.F & Raspberry Martini


PRICE:
Payless hasn't added these to their site yet so I can't give a price. I saw that Elizabeth Grant also has a similar product. Packaging is almost the same, features a side mirror, & the lid lights up. That one runs for 20 bucks. So I'm thinking S.X.Y should be 10 bucks or under.

PROS:
These glosses aren't drying, goes on smooth, color lasts through drinks, nice packaging, & I like the added mirror for touch ups on the go.

CONS:
I honestly don't like the light. I think it was a creative idea to add it, but in my opinion it makes the lipgloss harder to apply because of the glare.

OVERALL the colors are pretty & pigmented so I will continue using them.



Have y'all noticed that the pictures in my last 3 posts are kinda nicer than usual? Well I finally got around to playing with my camera & figuring out the settings =)

    Great review, pretty colors! I think the light is a neat concept... but I can see how it could cause a glare.
