Rock & Republic Luxe Lip Gloss




Rock & Republic Luxe Lip Glosses have only slightly more tolerable names than their blushes (Cougar, Trainwreck and Mistress are the worst of the bunch), but once again, the products are really nice and deserve a better marketing approach. I chose the darkest one available, Tyrant (because, obviously, thinking of tyrants make one feel pretty. Ugh).


Tyrant is a non-shimmer deep red, a bit dramatic, though you can go with a very sheer application and tone it down. It wears comfortably and has enough moisture to keep lips looking happy. Some of the pigment remains after the gloss itself is gone with your lunch, so I advise to actually wipe it off before re-applying, otherwise you get some dark spots.

Bottom line: Very nice, but there's nothing attractive about tyrants. Caligula, anyone?

Rock & Republic Luxe Lip Gloss ($26) is available from Nordstrom.
