Review: Bare Escentuals Buxom Babes Winter Escapade Collection

Star light, star bright…I wish you were on my lips tonight!  Well–you got it with the new Bare Escentuals Winter Escapade Buxom Babes Lip Polish Set.  When I say these glosses dazzle, I mean they really dazzle!  I love the original Buxom Lips glosses (My favorite color is Amber, I wonder why…), the cooling tingle without the burn plumps up my lines just a little without looking ridiculous and I don’t find them to be tacky or sticky.  But Winter Escapade is special!  It’s a limited-edition set with four mini-Buxom Big & Healthy Lip Polishes that sparkle and shine with minty freshness.

Merry (sheer sparkling beige)
Hope (sheer sparkling iridescent pearl)
Holly (sparkling red)
Joy (sheer sparkling light gold)

Ready for the swatches?

Whoa, I know!  Hope is so light-reflective that it makes it look like you have shooting stars on your lips!  I LOVE it!  Holly is my favorite, it’s the perfect red gloss for anyone afraid of red due to it’s pinky-red tone and the option of wearing it more on the sheer side.  I like Merry and Joy, but due to my light complexion, they’ll serve me better as accents over another gloss or lipstick.  For $28, these are cute companions to your holiday looks and the mini sizes are great for stashing in a clutch or small handbag for all of those parties you’ll be heading off to!

Which one is your fave?

Wow! These are so pretty! I’ve wanted to try some Buxom Babes lip gloss for awhile now… maybe I can get this! I like Merry and Holly the best.
