Review (5/5): Calling all lip lovers!
I love these for freelancing as an artist, but I also love using them on myself. More and more I'm starting to use throw away applicators to help preserve my own products. I wear makeup every single day (I'm talking full face makeup) so my makeup has more of an opportunity to harbor bacteria (constantly using, opening and closing products, using my hands to apply products and putting my hands in the products themselves, etc.). I love these because #1 I can use any lip product down to the bone. You know when your lipstick looks like it's all gone because it doesn't twist up anymore? Well girrrrl, there is still a good amount of product left in that tube. Using an applicator like this allows you to get deep down into the tube and use that $17 MAC lipstick to the bare bone. #2 I love using these with glosses. I wear lipliner, lipstick, and gloss almost every day. But when I start to put a gloss over my lipstick, sometimes the gloss picks up the lipstick and starts to change the color of my gloss. I use these directly in the gloss tube or liquid lipstick. Another way to apply is by using the gloss applicator to put a little product on the back of your hand or on a palette, and then picking up the product with these applicators. These are also great for mixing colors on the back of your hand or on a palette. Not that it matters, but I like the variety of colors you get too :D
