Summer 2009: Lavshuca Lip Gloss & GIVEAWAY!

Lavshuca revamped all their products/packaging so since the brand debuted in Spring 2006 they went from cute pink/white-girliness to dark purple not-so-innocent princess. I personally like the new kind of packaging better as it looks more elegant and princessy but I know many are sad that the brand underwent quite a change.

Anyways, their Summer 2009 collection is disappointing as it consists only of their new squeeze-tube Lipgloss coming in 8 colors. Cute lipglosses but nothing else. I wanted more cute eyeshadow palettes like last year's fantastic ones!


Being disappointed didn't keep me back from ordering 5 of the new lipglosses (it helps that they're really cheap!) lol (man, you know I am a freaky addict!)

Actually I detest lip products in squeeze-tubes (except lipbalms). I don't actually know why as squeeze-tubes are a good rather hygienic medium but I am weird so.... =X

Anyways, I LOVE the new Lavshuca Lipgloss. The texture is sticky and tacky and rather thick (so nothing for you if you mind this sort of gloss) and they leave a very glossy and shimmery finish with great staying-power (for a lipgloss)!
These are unscented, too, which is always a plus in my opinion.
You apply this straight from the tube by squeezing the gloss out on the slanted hard plastic applicator.


Being greedy for Japanese makeup I purchased 5 colors. But since I am trying to be a nice person only 4 are for me and 1 is for a lucky reader!

The colors I got are (left to right on the pic):
PK-1 (light nude pink, sheer pigment), PK-2 (juicy neutral pink, sheer-medium pigment), RS-1 (deeper raspberry pink with decent pigment), RD-1 (juicy red...you can win this one!) and BE-2 (pinky nude with decent pigment/no shimmer. Fab color!)


I got mine from Ichibankao. I think they retail for somewhere below US$7 =D

Giveaway: I am giving away the Lipgloss in RD-2 (2nd from right no the pics above...brand new and unused, just took it out of the box to take pics). You have to be a follower (being a subrsciber only doesn't count!) to participate and just leave a comment below (no need for a specific content) including your name/nickname (I have to be able to distinguish you from others).

Givaway ends on May 18th at 6 PM (my time, that's GMT +1).
I will announce the winner in a new post. Please email me within 48 hours to claim your prize or 2nd chance winner will be selected.
Good Luck!

I don't like tube glosses too because of the applicator. You can just use a lip brush for better application. :)

I've been dying to try Lavshuca but it's so hard to come by in my country. The glosses look really good but I was also expecting a larger collection with other point make up items. :)
