Hourglass Femme Nude Lip Stylo & No. 28 Lip Treatment Oil

Rejoice, nude lipstick lovers! Hourglass Cosmetics recently launched a small collection of Femme Nude Lip Stylos. These creamy, medium-full coverage lip crayons give a satin finish and the sleek retractable tube makes sharpening a thing of the past.

From pale pink nude to mauve nude, all six shades will flatter most skin tones. I got to try Nude No. 4, a pink beige nude with a hint of rose. It's absolutely wonderful for an au naturel look, but if I want more emphasis and definition Nude No. 6 might be better for me. In any case, all Hourglass lipsticks are rich in texture and the packaging is brilliant. I always feel extra sophisticated with one in my purse. 

If you're like me, you probably have chapped lips from too much sun exposure. The No. 28 Lip Treatment Oil is a luxurious way to restore a healthy pout. Addressing hydration, regeneration and anti-aging, it's fortified with a slew of plant botanicals, 14 essential oils, 4 vitamins and three active ingredients (Saliporine 8,K3 Viamerine and Volulip).

A tiny amount, about half a pump, is more than enough for each application. It's quite rich, so I like to use it while I'm watching TV or doing chores around the house. The anti-bacterial dispenser is built with a 24-karat gold plated applicator tip — how's that for opulent? There are no parabens, phthalates, sulfates, synthetic dyes and petroleum derivatives in the formula.
