Kat Von D Painted Love Lip Gloss in "Hellbent"

So, I was in Sephora the other day (doesn't happen very often) and I found a really good deal (almost never happens). On the Sephora website it says the Kat Von D Painted Love lipglosses are $18, but they were only $9 in the store. I'm not sure if it was a sale or an accident or what, but $9 for a gorgeous lipgloss from Sephora is a damn good deal so I got one. Should have gotten two. I got "Hellbent," which is an opaque deep, blood red. I love love love it. It's such a sexy color, and lasts a really long time for a lipgloss. Here it is with just lip liner (NYX Burgundy):
This last image is swatched by itself.

Here I'm wearing it with NYX "Burgundy" lip liner as well as Morgana Cryptoria's lipstick, "Very Cherry."
I think the photos speak for themselves. It's gorgeous. It's not really sticky either, which I like. I like my "classic red" lip to be on the darker red side, but if you like the bright bright red, I recommend "Underage Red."
I have to say, though, I'm not really a fan of Kat Von D as a person. She's kind of...well, skanky. I love the makeup line though, I use the "Tattoo Liner" pen almost everyday and I do have to admit she does amazing tattoo work. I think I've just heard her say one too many stupid things on LA Ink haha

"Dude, it's not rocket surgery."

Liplicious!

I am a HUGE sucker when it comes to yummy lip glosses. I could care less how long they stay on your lips as long as they taste good. I went in Bath and Body Works the other day and they had a huge display of Liplicious lip glosses (all of which have yummy flavors) and they were buy 2 get 1 free. Of course I had to.
I could not for the life of me decide which ones to get but these are the ones I FINALLY decided on (poor Caleb..I'm sure he was thinking "They all look the same!!") From left to right these are Vanilla Bean Noel(clear with glitter), Watermelon Sorbet(pinky pink), and then Cookies and Cream(sheer mauve). I love all of these SO much. They actually stay on pretty long if you can manage to not immediately lick them off. They're very sticky so if that bothers you I wouldn't recommend them. The watermelon one looks amazing on top of any hot pink lipstick (Morgana Cryptoria's Azalea Blue would be my pick!) and the Vanilla Noel one looks good on top of any color and doesn't feel gritty like some glittery glosses do. The Cupcake one comes in lots of other yummy dessert flavors (Red Velvet, Pink Chiffon, Lemon Cupcake just to name a few). It was hard to decide but I really love these. Thank you, Christmas!

Have a lovely Saturday!
