Fall Trend: Berry Lips (Ft. Arbonne)

Berry. You guys, it's a love affair. I can't stop loving everything berry. Give me berry, any berry, and I am sold. Arbonne is touting these as the 90's lip trend of statement lips, but I usually think more about brown lips for that trend. I went through that phase the first time it was around and I'm not about to go through it again. Brown did not work for me, especially when I paired it with bright blue eyeshadow. Oh 90's Wendy, what were you thinking? But these berry lips? That's a train I'm willing to board!

 Left to right: Aster, Iris, Berry. Iris looks like a dark reddish brown in the tube, but it swatches in the purple family on my pale skin. Some swatches I've seen on other skintones do make it look like a darker reddish berry. On me, Aster leans towards mauve. An easy everyday color. The Berry lip liner has just the slightest hint of gold shimmer and is very soft. It's a twist-up, so no worries about having to sharpen it.

The Smooth Over lipsticks go on creamy and feel moisturizing on my lips. They have a slight fruity scent in the tube, but it does not last on the lips. And I get a strange feeling of satisfaction when a lipstick tube has a strong click when you close it, and these do that. It would take a lot for the top to come off of one of these while they are in your purse or cosmetics bag!
