Haughty Cosmetics Perfect Finish Lip Gloss in Inspire – Swatches & Review

November 10, 2011 By Christa 1 Comment

Time for me to share another beautiful shade from the Haughty Cosmetics Perfect Finish Lip Gloss collection.

A little recap of Haughty Cosmetics: Michelle wanted to start her own business and was torn between wanting to start a company based on her love of cosmetics or to focus on her passion for wanting to help prevent violence against women. The genius she is, found a way to incorporate both of her dreams into reality with Haughty Cosmetics.

“I’m committed to donating 50% of net profits from the sale of Haughty products to domestic violence prevention education. It’s important to me that the work I do every day helps prevent young people from getting trapped in unhealthy, abusive, and violent situations. Nothing fulfills me more than hearing from survivors who tell me that they got out of a bad situation and now want to help others.”

The Perfect Finish Lip Gloss is fantastic. It lasts through drinks, meals, you name it. Not only is there a light stain left to my lips but they are still glossy! The formula is moisturizing and has a lovely mild scent that I can’t put my finger on. I also love that the shades are very pigmented and apply very evenly. They are absolutely not sticky. Not greasy either. For more information please see my original review of some other Haughty Cosmetics glosses here.

Inspire is described as rosy mauve. It is a lovely, versatile, no-brainer shade that has gorgeous shimmer. I’ve been reaching for it a lot lately. I recommend clicking on the swatch pic to enlarge. It is SO pretty!

Haughty Cosmetics Perfect Finish Lip Gloss retails for $21 US dollars and can be found on www.haughtycosmetics.com. (Not affiliated.) Please check it out. They do ship internationally. How can you go wrong when your purchase will help such a great cause.

Haughty Cosmetics Holiday Gloss Set – Give, Receive, Celebrate – Swatches and Review

October 19, 2011 By Christa 1 Comment

The first day the new Haughty Cosmetics Holiday Gloss Set became available for purchase I ordered right away and was delighted to be the first customer to try out the new international checkout. The holiday set includes three all new gloss shades for the holidays; Give, Receive and Celebrate. The three new shades will be available as a set including a beautiful makeup bag for only $45. What a great gift idea! The new glosses are also available for purchase individually at the regular price of $21 each.

For more information on Haughty Cosmetics please check out my first post reviewing the line here. Please note that will take you away from this page so you’ll have to hit back to return. 50% of net profits from the sale of Haughty products is donated to domestic violence prevention education.

The shades are all more wearable than I expected. They can be worn with a lighter application for an everyday look or build up for more intensity. As mentioned in my previous review they are non sticky, well pigmented, long lasting and apply evenly leaving a nice stain on the lips. One of my favourite gloss formulas of all time! The main ingredient is Jojoba Oil so they are very nourishing.
