Have you noticed all of the color-stick type lippies that are cropping up everywhere? So far, I have tried Tarte's Lipsurgence, Clinique Chubby Sticks, and Pixi's Tinted Brilliance Balms. There are drugstore versions as well! I know that Revlon has some and now there are also these new Moisture Smooth Color Sticks from Neutrogena! 

I really struggle with dry lips. So, any product that provides extra moisture is super intriguing to me! I just love the idea of hydrating lipcolor. 

I am so excited about the assortment that Neutrogena sent me to review! I got the following shades: Soft Raspberry, Juicy Peach, and Bright Berry. To hear more details and to see pictures, please keep reading!

Neutrogena's Moisture Smooth Color Sticks:

These Moisture Smooth Color sticks are like a super smooth lip-balm and hydrating lipcolor in one. They completely feel like a balm going on. Not like a waxy balm: these feel so silky! You can absolutely skip traditional lipbalm while using these! Normally I apply lipbalm before any lipcolor. With these, you can completely skip that step! Yay! Plus, you get beautiful super glossy shimmery semi-sheer color with a lightweight feel. Actually, it doesn't even feel like lipcolor. It just feels like a light layer of silky balm! Plus, you don't need a gloss on top either. These pack enough shine and shimmer to skip gloss! Of the colors that I tried, the Juicy Peach shade has a bit of a frosty finish. While that might turn some off, I personally love it!

The Skinny:

• These NEW Moisture Smooth Color Sticks from Neutrogena come in 8 shades
• They retail for about $8.50 each
• Product design features twist-up color. You don't need a sharpener! You just twist the color up from the silver base. 
• Formula contains fruit extracts, shea butter, and mango
• The Color Sticks have a slightly fruity scent (mango?). While I typically am not crazy about fruity scents for lip products (with the exception of strawberry), I actually do like this scent! I surprised myself! :)
• The color is slightly sheer and super glossy! While it is on the sheer side, it still packs enough pigment to "change" your lipcolor. 

I just adore these Moisture Smooth Color Sticks! My favorite is the Juicy Peach shade. I wear it *all the time*! I know that I am going to continue to love these throughout Spring and Summer because of the lovey shine and lightweight feel. These Color Sticks are really like a lipbalm, lipcolor, and gloss in one. So easy to wear!
