Aucoin Newbie

I’ve been wanting to try Kevyn Aucoin makeup for a few years now but I’ve never taken the time to look much further into it other than having a quick browse online. It’s been notoriously hard to get your mitts on this side of the pond, until now. It’s recently been brought into SpaceNK stores and I was a little overexcited to try my very first product this week.

‘The Lipgloss’ in Pasiflora is a gorgeous jelly-red with iridescent pink glitter. The packaging is quite shockingly small and square. It looks more like a nail polish at first glance.

The formula is simply wonderful. It’s totally un-sticky, and the glitter isn’t chunky at all, you can barely feel it on the lips. The doe foot applicator is a lot more foot-like than normal (chubby and chunky!), but it does a great job of applying just the right amount of gloss.

It’s quite sheer on it’s own but leaves a perfectly glossy finish to the lips. It look great layered over lipstick. And the best part? It tastes like fruit punch… I love it!

The one downside is the price. At £22 it’s a serious splurge for a lipgloss, but if you’re looking for a totally non-sticky, totally beautiful lipgloss then look no further. So far, so good with Kevyn Aucoin! I’ve got my eyes on the cult-status Sensual Skin Enhancer next.

You can pick up Kevyn Aucoin makeup now from SpaceNK online and instore.
