Jordana Twist & Shine Moisturizing Balm Stains

Happy Tuesday! 
Now that fall is in swing and pumpkin patches popping up everywhere, I wanted to change up my lips a little. The colder weather causes my lips to dry and flake): (yay for baby Vaseline), so I definitely did not want to go into the trouble of using a lip stick. Plus, the wind blows my hair and it adheres itself to my lip gloss, so that was also another no-go. Then, after I tried the Jelly Lip Balm Stain from my August GlossyBox Review,I knew that I wanted to try more of these lipstick, stain, and gloss hybrids. 
 What better place to get inexpensive lip products than the drugstore, right? So off I went to my local Walgreens, and I found balm stains for under $5. Jordana's volumizing mascara is my absolute holy grail mascara, so I picked out a couple fun shades. The first color (in order in the picture) is 06 Cranberry Crush, the next 07 Rock n Rouge, and 02 Sweet Pink. These are colors that I most likely would not wear on an everyday basis, but for $4 and some change, why not?

Cranberry Crush shows up wayyyyy lighter than what it looks like in the tube. At first, I was scared to even try it, but it's definitely wearable! The color doesn't go well with my skin tone, but people with fair skin would look amazing with it on. Rock n Rouge is just a staple red. This bold color is perfect with the holidays coming around (P.S.: I even started my wish list). It's super pigmented and goes on like a dream. The last color is Sweet Pink, which I would describe as a neutral, blue-toned pink. This is my everyday lip color and they stain your lips after the gloss wears off. Overall, I highly recommend trying these out!


In order: Cranberry Crush, Rock n Rouge, Sweet Pink
