Clarins- Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector- Candy Shimmer
Clarins- Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector £17
Recently my Mum was really kind and bought me the Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector in Candy Shimmer as a thank you for helping her with some work. I picked the shade as the colour of the packaging and the swatches online looked such a pretty pink and I thought that it would look really pretty for an every day look. It definitely matched that expectation as it is so lovely and makes my lips look shimmery and natural and it also completely surpasses expectations as it is quite possibly the best lip gloss that I have ever used.
Firstly, I love the little sponge applicator, it helps to make sure that the gloss spreads evenly (rather than looking streaky as some brushes do) and it makes it easy to apply on the go. I was pleasantly surprised at how balmy it felt as it just isn't sticky at all- one thing that I hate is a sticky lip gloss- on the lips it feels really nourishing and lasts for about an hour or so. It also smells really good, sort of like bubblegum or popcorn but it isn't too sickly sweet.
I may be a little bit late to the party on this one as they came out a few months back and have had a lot of hype around them, I normally avoid hyped up products but I am really glad that my mum bought me this one as it is worth the hefty price tag and I definitely recommend this. I think I will be giving some of the other shades a swatch next time I am at a clarins counter!
