REVIEW: Juice Beauty SPF15 Tinted Lip Moisturizers

I am a stickler for a lip balm with a suncreen when it comes to spending any time in the sun. But I have been on the search for one that would do the job while adding a bit of color too.

The color names are Delightful, Playful, and Joyful. They are all very berry when applied - just a different range of berry for each one. And the tint is more of a stain, all unflattering at that.

And while these balms did do the job of protecting my lips from the sun, they are very thick and left bits of wax when applying. Not smooth.

Looks like I am still searching!

A Good Idea, but...

Unfortunately, these adjusters don't do more than lighten your lipstick by adding a lustre pearl finish to it. And with most of my lipsticks, no matter which "mood" shade I chose, the result was basically the same.

I think I will give up on the mood idea, and continue to alter my lipstick appearance with my many tubes of lip glosses, as I have done for years.

A good idea, but not enough of difference to make it a winner for me.
