Review: Benefit Hydra-Smooth Lip Color in "Air Kiss"

Another product I received from Benefit's product launch back in July was something from their new Hydra-Smooth Lip Color line. If I'm not mistaken, it was released locally just this September. I'm a self-proclaimed lipstick fiend, so of course I have to do a review on this too!

The outer packaging alone is to die for. Am I the only one that's getting Great Gatsby vibes from it? Trust Benefit to come up with the best vintage-inspired designs for their products.

Product description:

hydra-smooth lip color is the fun & flattering future of lipstick! It’s enriched with shea, mango butter and vitamin E for lips that look supple & hydrated. It glides on irresistibly smooth with a double-slanted tip that’s custom designed to define AND fill. This collection was specially created to bring you the Top 10 most universally flattering shades…so they’re easy to pick & even easier to wear. Available in three levels of coverage: sheer, medium and medium-full. (1)

The shade I received is 'Air Kiss' which falls under the sheer category and is described as a 'bubblegum pink'.

What's in my makeup bag?

First and foremost, it's been just over two weeks since my last post and I want to offer apologies again to my subscribers/readers for that. My mom passed away on the 14th from complications due to her (breast) cancer, of which she was a survivor for six years. Since then, I've sort of lacked motivation to write any new entries and in fact, I've got a small backlog to get up and out of the way and I'll start emptying said backlog with a sort of 'quickie entry' that I hope you'll still like!

As the title states, here's a peek into my makeup bag which I tote around with me everyday containing my must-have beauty items with me that I simply can't leave the house without!
