Buxom Full-On Lip Polishes

I received two shades of the Buxom Full-On Lip Polishes: Lily and Dominique. Lily is a beautiful peach shade with gold and silver glitter, while Dominique is a more mysterious shade. Both polishes offer a clear gloss base infused with multiple colored glitters. They transform any lipstick into a glamorous, sparkly look.

The formula is surprisingly resilient to heat; despite sitting in a hot car, the product wasn't affected. They provide a subtle plumping effect, not overly intense, creating a naturally enhanced pout.

Buxom Full-On Lip Creams

Next up are the Buxom Full-On Lip Creams in Wild Orchid and White Russian. Housed in frosted glass packaging, these lip creams promise a glossy plumping effect with a refreshing tingle. The color payoff appears to be quite impressive, especially the White Russian shade.

I was particularly excited to try White Russian, a color I already own in lipstick form. The creamy texture and plumping sensation make these a compelling option for a luxurious lip look.

Buxom Ba-Be-Bopp Shiny Liquid Lipstick

The Ba-Be-Bopp Shiny Liquid Lipstick is a brand-new product that I haven't seen elsewhere. This liquid lipstick contains a built-in plumper and comes in a unique black case with a visible color window. The packaging is sleek and sophisticated.

The applicator is unusual, unlike a standard doe foot applicator; it's described as a unique paddle-like shape. The claim of vivid color, plumping effect, and comfortable wear is definitely intriguing and promising.

Buxom Big & Sexy Bold Gel Lipsticks

The Big & Sexy Bold Gel Lipsticks come in Matte Wildfire and Matte Classified Crimson, both gorgeous red shades. The packaging is simple yet elegant, a black case with a magnetic closure. The formula is described as applying smoothly and boasts a warm vanilla scent.

The reviewer highlights the intense matte finish and buttery smooth application. These lipsticks seem ideal for achieving a bold, long-lasting lip color.

Buxom Power-Plump Tinted Lip Balm

The Buxom Power-Plump Tinted Lip Balm in Flushed is a unique product; a lip balm with a plumping effect and a sheer berry tint. The packaging is black with a lip design and a color window. It is designed for a natural look and lip hydration.

The reviewer is curious to test it under liquid lipstick for additional lip hydration. The subtle berry tint and plumping action make it a versatile addition to any makeup routine.

Buxom Plump Line Lip Liners

Lastly, there are two Buxom Plump Line Lip Liners: Ransom and Cloak and Dagger. These are presented as dual-ended pencils with a lip liner on one end and a brush on the other for blending. The shades are described as a universally flattering nude and a bold red.

Despite a soy allergy preventing the reviewer from using them personally, the liners are lauded for their quality and suitability for others. This suggests a high-quality product that could appeal to many.

Overall Conclusion

Buxom's latest collection offers a diverse range of lip products, from glossy polishes and creamy lipsticks to matte and liquid formulations. The majority of the products contain a plumping agent, delivering a subtle but noticeable enhancement to lip volume. The color payoff and textures are generally impressive across the line, with each item offering its unique appeal.

While the Ba-Be-Bopp Shiny Liquid Lipstick's non-transfer-proof nature is a drawback for some, its unique applicator and vibrant colors are highlights. Overall, Buxom's products are high-quality and definitely worth considering for anyone seeking luxurious, plumping lip options. The variety caters to different preferences and occasions, creating a comprehensive collection for every lip look.
