L.A. COLORS High Shine Shea Butter Lip Gloss

Great staying power, good consistency. Low price meaning you can try a few shades without going over beauty budget.

It’s a great price and looks great. And it’s perfect for just having something on the go. And it doesn’t dry your lips. And it’s a great color. And just feels nice on your lips.

comes as shown, smells good, applies nicely and gives a good shine. very good quality for the price 👍

I bought this because I had a gift card and I had $2 left and I literally typed “under $2 stuff” and this came out, so I gave it a try and WOW! It’s beautiful. Not sticky like others I bought before way expensive and for the prize??? A win. Will definitely buy again!.

Before I say anything I’d like to state I have sensory issues due to being neurodivergent, am extremely picky with makeup, and sensitive skin so if that’s something you’re worried about because you have sensory issues, sensitive skin, are picky with makeup as well, worried it’ll be too sticky, heavy, or give you an allergic reaction this review is for you!

I don’t wear a lot of makeup because of my sensory issues, personally a lot of makeup products feel too heavy, sticky, or generally uncomfortable / restricting for me. I won’t even wear foundation or bbc cream because it feels heavy on my skin. That being said, stop hesitating and reading through reviews, go buy yourself one! This product is amazing for the price. A little goes a long way. I wore it almost daily and it lasted me a little over a year per tube! It does exactly what it says, it’s somewhat moisturizing and not as sticky as most lip glosses I’ve tried in the past. If you’ve ever worn Elf’s Lip Oil it’s shares the same texture and feels similar but this product is much more light weight and a lot less sticky. It has no taste nor smell. It lasts about 2 and a half hours before it’s time to reapply if you’re not eating, drinking, etc, but even after it’s worn off it leaves your lips with a light shine to them like you’ve just put on chapstick! It’s not a very prominent gloss, it’s more on the casual side but I preferred that! As someone who can’t splurge on makeup, this helped me turn so many lip tints, lip liners, and such into lip glosses! I loved putting it ontop of other lip products. This product allows you to turn your favorite matte / no shine lip products into glosses! I also noticed the wand never stained even if I was putting it over a vivid colored lip product which is impressive. For people with sensitive skin I do want to say that personally, I had zero problems with this product. My lips didn’t tingle, I never had an allergic reaction, it never left my lips feeling dried out, and it never stained anything (outside of some plastic straws) so I think this is great for people with sensitive skin/lips! Overall, 9/10, it would be 10/10 if it stayed on just a little longer but it’s such a nice gloss.

Update, as of 2024: I got this when I was 16 (2019) and I used it for awhile. I actually still have a small amount left from the last time I bought it (around 2022) and it never gets old. I’m sure you shouldn’t be wearing it after a certain amount of time but it never yellows or starts to feel different! This could last you AWHILE if you only wear clear gloss from time to time. However, I’ve switched to Elf’s Clear Lip Oil since it looks like lip gloss, goes over lip tints / lipstick nicely, and hydrates my lips the whole time I’m wearing it, and is only $9. Plus Elf’s Lip Oil does stay on significantly longer. The downside is it is heavier but the fact it lasts me ages and can be used at home just to fix chapped lips makes it worth it! Plus, like this product with Elf’s Lip Oils a little goes a long way. These two are very similar in texture and how they feel aside from Elf feeling heavier so if you’re looking for a cheaper alternative that moisturizes as well I’d choose Elf’s Clear Lip Oil! It comes in colors but since this is a clear product I’m assuming people are looking for clear glosses. Overall, this product still got the job done better than most and looked amazing. I used it daily and it lasted me about a year (per tube) but I’m also a very casual ‘no makeup’ makeup girl.

 I purchased this lip gloss because most of my lipglosses have a color to them and I often end up with patchy bits of glitter and color on my lips and so I have to reapply often. A lot of them are either of a watery consistency and do not help with dryness at all… or are on the thicker side and are too sticky to wear on date nights for instance. So the reviews for this lip gloss caught my attention and peeked my curiosity. After all, I’ve tried so many different brands and types of lip glosses…both high end and affordable ones. And so, I was sceptic that this one would live up to the hype. But I still ordered it. And I don’t regret it. First off, it smells really good….reminds me of summer for some reason. But the texture is what really caught me by surprise. It’s thick, but not sticky. It applies like warm butter to my lips and it moisturizes so well. It doesn’t leave my lips feeling sticky or dry or chapped or parched like most of my other glosses do. It feels like an actual lip treatment instead of just a lip gloss. I reach for it everyday and I wouldn’t live without it. I use it mostly on bare lips but I also like to apply it on top of lipstick or lip stains. I do reapply it during the day but I don’t have to do it as often as my other glosses. I will definitely be ordering extras for my purse and for when I’m traveling. I’m very happy with this purchase and I do recommend buying it.
