Prescriptives Summer 2009: Best Colors of the Season

prescriptives-lipcolors

Back in April I told you about the Prescriptives Summer 2009 Color Collection: Exhilarating.

My favorite products of the collection are the Exhilarating Lip Glosses. They’re guava flavored and come in three flattering shades: Mango, Pink Grapefruit and Guava.

Makeup Bag intern Monica tried the Papaya Exhilarating Lipcolor and was pleasantly surprised with its shine and shimmer:

“I’ll admit I approached this lipstick with a bit of trepidation (read: fear!), as it looked like a relatively loud coral in the tube. I am relieved to share that the color is indeed coral, but also surprisingly wearable. What I was afraid would look orangey turned out to be a true, warm coral with enough pink to counteract any possible ruddiness. The consistency was excellent, offering extremely comfortable wear and soft shine and just a hint of shimmer. So pretty for summer!”

I also have been wearing the Limited-Edition Calyx Sheer Exhilaration nearly every day here in Hawaii. The fruity scent is light and refreshing, a perfect complement to the humid Hawaiian air.

MAC Tricolour Lipglass

If anything, I want this new Tricolour Lipglass from the MAC Sugarsweet Collection just to have in my purse to show off.

With three shades of varying pearl combinations in one lipgloss vial, each application could result in a varied shade. Fun!

Darphin Illusion Lip Gloss

By far, this Darphin Lip Gloss in Illusion is my current fave. The formula is slick and hydrating with extracts of rosemary and soy. The opalescent shimmering pink shade is ultra flattering and slightly delicate, making me appear sweeter than I actually am.

The only problem? I keep “losing” it. The other girls in the house seem to like it just as much as I do, and keep borrowing it from my purse.

I need to find a secret hiding spot for this gem. As soon as I find it.
