Now, I am a BIG fan of a bright lipstick, especially pink and especially in the spring/summer months! I always like a glossy look to my lips as for me it helps with making them look more fuller as I wasn't blessed with say Angelina's luscious lips!
I had to share with you a recent purchase of mine, a new lip product, Urban Decay Super-Saturated High Gloss Lip Colour as is just amazing! These are completely new to me although I believe they launched sometime last year. Why did I not know this?!!!!
What are they exactly?
Urban Decay Super Saturated High Gloss Lip Colour are described as....
"The creamiest, most sumptuously-pigmented pencil to ever hit your lips. They've created a formula that delivers all the opaque, saturated, HIGH-IMPACT color of your favorite lipstick and an arresting high-gloss finish in ONE chubby pencil! Even the glittery hues in this collection of high-gloss lip pencils feel smooth on your lips (and leave not a trace of "sparkle grit"). This conveniently portable pencil's high-gloss shine can be blotted for a more stain-like effect, but no matter how you wear it the color lasts. Free of mineral oil and paraffin, this formula contains plant-derived ingredients that nourish lips".

What I think -
Crush is a hot pink with a warmer undertone to it (my favourite) whereas Big Bang is a bright pink with a beautiful glitter sparkle running though it and is more blue toned but insanely sparkly!
The description given about these is spot on. They go on like a dream! The texture is very creamy, opague and the colour pay off is very true to what you see with a gorgeous glossy finish, giving you two products in one, a lipstick and a gloss. The glitter pay off is the best I have found in a lipstick as you do not get that awful gritty feel on your lips like most other brands out there.
They do stain the lips, so beware, but this ensures that they are very long lasting but certainly not drying. This can be good if you want to blot the colour out slightly for a less glossy looking finish. I found that they are extremely moisturising and I didn't get any bleeding or feathering from them as some glossy products do this a lot. They are very precise when applied to the lip so I found no need to use a lip liner with them as it lined perfectly (just make sure its at a point & not flat).
Make sure you use a big barrel pencil sharpener as they do not come with one and be aware that sharpening any glossy pencil is a bit messy regardless of the brand! You will need to clean out your sharpener as it is so creamy it will smear. I LOVE LOVE LOVE.
My best lip discovery of the year so far and new shades have been added so I believe!
Urban Decay is a really fantastic brand and highly recommend it.
If you love bright, opaque glossy lipsticks then go and try these....you shall not be disappointed in my opinion!
