Amaryllis Lip Chic by Chantecaille Beaute

Disclaimer:  I purchased this.

The Lip Chic line by Chantecaille Beaute is described as the "perfect combination of gloss and lipstick", and it does indeed have a lovely glossy finish.  I'd say it's more sheer than most lipsticks, however, although you are still getting plenty of color. 

Amaryllis is a rosy red that would probably look good on most complexions.  It's one of those easy to carry off colors, and the sheer gloss makes it one of those that you can toss in your bag and apply at will, no mirror necessary.  Really, a great summer accessory :-)

The formula is light but I still get a good 3-4 hours of wear.  My lips are comfortable (no irritation, which is hit or miss for me as I seem to react to an unknown ingredient in some lip formulations), and feel nicely moisturized for the duration of wear.  Added collagen is supposed to provide a lip plumping boost, and there are no parabens in the mix.

Chantecaille Beaute is a high end brand, and these baby's are $35, although I've got to say the products have not left me wanting.  This is a very nice treat that I can see myself reaching for often!
