GOSH Light N Shine Lip Glaze Swatches + Review

Time for another post I've been meaning to do for ages - whoops - Pursuing the GOSH stand in Superdrug months and months ago now I purchased what at the time I perceived to be a bit of a gimmick but I was wrong and ended up being suitably impressed. GOSH Light N Shine Lip Glazes initially appear to be gimmicky - a little mirror on the side and little LED lights built into the wand - the gimmicks though do turn out to be pretty useful especially on a night out or when your out and about - the mirror is obviously super useful , and believe it or not so are the LEDs -you can actually see where your putting your gloss!! - no going outside the lines with these! I subsequently went on to purchase another two the glosses themselves are very similar to MAC Dazzleglasses - a vanilla taste, a brush applicator and of course the obligatory multi coloured / holographic glitter particles. Time for some pics and swatches
I have 1, 2, and believe it or not 3 :) - I'll start with No. 3 which is probably the most standout shade

You can see the lights in this picture

This is a super raspberry pink / red with silver / pink and blue toned particles which is surprisingly pigmented - this shade would probably be better worn on its own as opposed to over a lipstick
Photobucket
Here is a swatch of it on my lips (all the swatches are on bare lips) - it's actually a little bit darker / brighter than it is here - the blazing sun light is washing the colour out a bit,

No. 3 is possibly my favourite - a super peachy pink with silver white and pale pink sparkles
Photobucket
It's not the most pigmented lipgloss you can just about see a very pale pink / peach tone in the gloss
Photobucket
on the lips again its probably a tiny bit more peach / pink than it appears here - it would be quite subtle worn on its own or you could wear it over a pink / peach toned lipstick for added sparkle
Photobucket
Oh and here's a pic of the mirror on the side of the tube :)
Photobucket
The final shade I have is No. 1 - - this is white in the tube but clear in colour - it has probably the most multi coloured sparkle in it - you name the colour it will be in there
Photobucket
Photobucket
On the lips it looks quite similar to the previous one but the sparkle is a lot more evident - again you could wear it on it's own but it would look fabulous over any colour lipstick!
Photobucket
I really like these lipglosses they have the right degree of stickiness, and seem to last pretty well on the lips - my only slight complaint is that when they wear off they seem to leave a few glitter particles on your mouth and on your skin - so if you don't like glitter they probably aren't for you. I bought these glazes / glosses from Superdrug for around £8.50 each for a 6ml tube.

  5. I picked up one (i dont know the colour name, it's sort of gold coloured) because they had a promotion where if you bough 2 GOSH products you got one of the lip glosses free. I really like it! The colours you've got all look beautiful too, particularly the first one. Great post!
