{From left to right: Orchid||Disco Rose||Superstar||Pout||Coraline}
Nothing makes me happier than finding new lipstick and gloss. So you can imagine my excitement when I spotted a lipgloss set from Smashbox with five new-to-me shades. And then saw that they were only $20 (valued at $80). How fast can you say “sold”?!
Since it’s fall, I’m all about soft pinks, deep plums, and reds, which were generously represented in this collection. I have plenty of lipsticks to carry me through until spring (that’s a hint to myself that I should refrain from buying any more). But I tend to shy away from lipgloss due to the tacky nature and the frequent need to reapply. However, when it’s from Smashbox I can overlook these shortcomings.
{Left: Orchid || Right: Disco Rose}
While these aren’t the full-sized versions, the tubes offer enough product to get you started. The set contains the following shades: Orchid, Disco Rose, Superstar, Pout, Coraline. I can already tell you that two of the colors have received a lot of wear. Any guesses which ones they were? If you said Orchid and Disco Rose, you’d be correct.
All of the shades go on fairly sheer, so be prepared to apply a double coat for maximum coverage. You could even wear the gloss over a complementary lipstick shade to add some sheen to your pout.
Did I mention that this set would make a great gift for the holidays?
Are you a lipstick or lipgloss lover?
I’m very much a lipstick lover but this looks like a lovely set xxx
Thanks! I love my lipsticks, too, but this set has some nice shades. And for the money, I thought it was worth a try.
I think I’m going to put this on my Christmas list 🙂 xx
Let me know how you like the set if you do!
Disco Rose looks so nice on you! I can see why you have been getting a lot of use out of it 🙂

I am a lipgloss girl and usually my go-to is MAC but some of these shades are so pretty it may be time to step out of the comfort zone! Thank you for sharing and have a wonderful rest of your day!

NARS lipsticks are great! I purchased a shade called Charlotte last year and I wear it to death. I can’t wait to check out your post, Colleen!
These are such pretty colors! And only $20?? Basically the price of one full sized gloss! So worth it.

Thanks, Jamie! I haven’t picked a favorite yet. They’re all so nice that I can’t decide which I like best. Pout is definitely a great color!

Oh the most beautiful on you.. Love both of those colors! Smash box is such an awesome brand. I was a lipgloss lover thru my teen years, then a chapstick, and now a recent lipstick adopter. Go figure!

I went through the same phases as you did, Kelly! Now I have lipsticks in every shade and can’t leave home without one in my bag. But it’s been fun to play with gloss and wear them with my lipstick for some added sheen. I’m glad you enjoyed the post!
love these colors!
