At first glance, this pale pink pearly lipstick looks like a throwback to Carnaby Street and the white go-go booted Sixties. Rest assured, it doesn't apply thick and matte! It glides on sheer and almost colourless, with only the faintest glimmer of pink.
This unlikely item is actually a real workhorse. I wear it ...
Alone: I often wear Misty instead of lip balm. It provides long lasting protection, an SPF of 18, and looks a lot more chic in your makeup bag than a tube of Chapstick!
Under lipstick: Smooth on Misty, then follow with your normal lip colour. You'll notice that the lip colour has lightened slightly and softened in tone, and has a slight pearly glow. Great for toning down those blaring reds and deep plums.
Over lipstick: A dab of Misty in the centre of your lower lip creates a lip-plumping effect similar to lip gloss -- without the goop!
The scent of the lipstick is light and unusual -- vaguely sweet, with a hint of ginger. It's contained, as are all JI lipsticks, in a matte gold case.
Ingredients: Castor Oil, Glyceryl Triacetyl Ricinoleate, Candelilla Wax, Ozokerite, Beeswax, Isopropyl Palmitate, Sunflower Oil, Carnuaba Wax, Caprtlic/Capric Triglyceride, Glycerides, Hydrogenated Palm Glycerides, Vitamin E(D-Alpha Tocopherol), Phenoxyethanol, Botanical Rose, Vitamin C(Ascorbyl Palmitate). May Contain: Mica, Carmine, Iron Oxides, Titanium Dioxide. |

| Thanks for the review. I have been trying to decide whic lipstick or lipgloss to get from JI. I am currently using the Just Gloss lipgloss and wanted to break out and get some colours but am having a hard deciding which one as there are quite a few of them that I like. I think I've at least decided on a lipstick shade though. Think I'll pick "Jane" as it looks like a nice neutral colour. Anyone have any experience with other JI lip prodcuts? |
Sorry it's taken me a while to respond to this, wildflower. I have no experience with the colour Jane, but I do have some other JI lip products I'll try to describe for you:
LipShere:
Diana -- Lovely sheer plum-rose with very fine shimmer. I've found the swatches for this shade to be way off base for this one. I think both cool and warm complexions could wear it well.
LipColour:
Susan -- Cool mid-tone rose-mauve with no discernable shimmer.
Bridget -- Cool raspberry-wine, no shimmer.
PureGloss:
Iced Mocha -- Neutral rosy beige with shimmer. Very pretty alone or over lipstick.
Raspberry -- This is not what I'd call raspberry. It's similar to Iced Mocha, with a touch more mauve. No shimmer, just shine.
Lip Liner:
Rose -- Neutral mid-tone pink
Berry -- Deeper berry-wine shade. Both colours are well pigmented, glide on smoothly, and look great alone with a touch of clear Just Gloss over them.
Hope this helps a little!  |
