Sinful Colors Lip Shine

Sinful Colors Lip Shine
Peachy Sheen, Just Blushing, Pink Sugar, Crystal Cut, Crystalized

Found these lovely Sinful Colors Lip Shines while wandering Walgreens. I picked up all 5 colors that were on the display. (I meant to snap a picture of the display). Sinful colors lip shines are VERY VERY sheer, many of you may know that I can get very upset over lip glosses being extremely sheer, BUT based on how these look in the tubes I knew they would be sheer, plus the name Lip Shine lead me to believe these are not supposed to be pigmented. They aren't overly sticky and have a nice dose of glitter. I will be using these mostly for layering over lipsticks.


What I would say if you don't need to pick up all 5, you can probably get away with just picking up one.

Peachy Sheen – Lip Shine – Walgreens $2.99 - Is the gold shine of the group and actually seems to have the most pigment.

Just Blushing  – Lip Shine – Walgreens $2.99 - Pale Pink
Pink Sugar  – Lip Shine – Walgreens $2.99 - Pink
Crystal Cut  – Lip Shine – Walgreens $2.99 - Purple
Crystalized  – Lip Shine – Walgreens $2.99 - Clear

As you can see based on the swatch picture there isn't much difference at all between the colors. But THEY are shiny!
Do I love these? Not as much as I love some of my other lip glosses.
Would I buy them again? Most likely but not all 5 again since there isn't a difference between shades.
When would I use these? To layer over a lip stick, I have a lot of matte lipsticks that need the extra umph that these lip shines will provide.

  1. I bought a lip shine and it was very pigmented. It was red and looked awesome on me. Nice shine too.

    1. I did spot more colors the other day. I will try and snag some more and swatch those out too. Thank you for the tip on the red. I will make that a must.
