NYC New York Lip Color Liquid Lipshine

This is another product review of an item I received in my Holiday VoxBox from Influenster. Influesnter is a really cool site, it's a type of interactive product testing/reviewing site. Basically, you sign up and you're given tasks to unlock badges: taking surveys, reviewing products, sharing products via social media, etc. When you unlock stuff and get your points higher, you qualify for various VoxBoxes in which your receive items to check out based on your interests. They ship stuff to your house, you don't have to pay for shipping or anything. If you're interested, say something in the comments and I'll send you an invite or whatever.
This lovely item is NYC New York Lip Color Liquid Lipshine in Nude York City.
Disclaimer: I received these complimentary items for testing purposes from Influenster. I am not being paid for my opinions and they are entirely my own.
I've never purchased this particular brand before, but it seemed nice enough. It's priced at $2.49 USD, which is pretty cheap. It looks nice enough, the container is glass, not plastic, and the label is unobtrusive with the product visible. Nice start.
On to the formula then. It's got a decent amount of pigment to it, and it smells kind of like marshmallows. I like it, personally. It's not super sticky, but it is thick. Like I can totally tell I'm wearing it, but it's not horrible or anything.
Unfortunately, light nudes aren't generally my best colors. I look best in lip colors with red/pink undertones, so this really isn't my color.
So yeah, not my color, but still a fine gloss. It's not my favorite or anything, but I would consider buying some of the other colors. It actually looks pretty good over a darker lip stain or lipstick.
Here it is over my e.l.f. lip stain in Nude Nectar. Much better. So, I really do like this product and would recommend it. It's inexpensive, super shiny and quite pretty. Feel free to comment as always. I love hearing what you guys have to say about the products! Til next time!
