Josie Maran Argan Love Your Lips Hydrating Lipsticks ($22; sephora.com) combine the moisturizing formula of a lip balm, pigment of a lipstick and the shine of a gloss. The lipstick core is surrounded by a transparent veil of moisture that helps with hydration. *Press Sample
Although a balmy lipstick, I feel like the color does get a bit patchy when applying it straight from the tube. But then, using a lip brush to get the color from the core of the lipstick, beats the purpose. So, I apply it straight from the tube and then even things out using my fingers or a lip brush. Spirited Red is quite pigmented - its perfectly described as a cherry red. I like the color better when its sheered out, but if you prefer a pop of color, Spirited Red is just the perfect red for that. The finish is quite glossy and wears down to a light stain after about 2-3 hours. I din't find the formula particularly drying, but neither was it super moisturizing. Overall, its a nice lipstick that works with a little bit of work here and there to even things out. The color range seems really good too! These are also formulated without Parabens, Sulfates and Pthalates.
