Palladio Herbal Precision Lipliner in Gingerbread ($5.99) Palladio Precision Lip Liners features a waterproof, no transfer formula that is the perfect all day lip liner for all skin types. Lasts for up to 12 hours. Buildable color pigment, for soft to dramatic styles. Silicone base will not “bleed” or “feather” like traditional wax liners.
My Thoughts:
Palladio Precision Lip Liners are so creamy and go on so smoothly! The lip liner has a glossy/creamy sheen to it, but when you apply the liner, it goes on matte. Gingerbread is a dark neutral, nude color that you can actually turn it into a lip color. Just line your lips, fill it in, and top it off with some clear gloss. The color lasts for hours and hours. It doesn’t fade or feather. The best part? The lip liner doesn’t dry out your lips.

Palladio Herbal Lipgloss in Ruby Red ($4.49) Palladio Herbal Lip Glosses are true to color with rich moisturizers that make these unique lip glosses a must have for any makeup aficionado! Simply sensuous, with a wide variety of European high fashion colors. Enriched with five beneficial Herbs: Ginseng, Green Tea, Gingko Biloba, Chamomile and Aloe Vera. Fortified with anti-oxidant Vitamins A, C, D & E to combat free radicals that cause the breakdown of skin’s elasticity.
My Thoughts:
Palladio Herbal Lip Gloss is a great dupe for MAC’s Lipglasses, except better. Why do I think the Palladio Herbal Lip Gloss is better? First, it’s cheaper and more affordable. I can buy 3 Palladio lip glosses for the cost of 1 MAC lipglass. Second, the Palladio lipgloss is not as sticky as MAC lipglass. The Palladio gloss feels very light and isn’t thick and goopey. The gloss is sheer but does have pigmentation. There are tiny sparkles in the gloss, but you can’t even feel them on your lips. The tiny sparkles help give the illusion of plumper lips! I don’t know what I was thinking forking over nearly $15 for MAC lipglasses when I could’ve gotten a great dupe for a third of the cost. Seriously give Palladio Herbal Lip Glosses a try. There are so many colors to choose from!

Palladio Herbal Lipstick ($5.99) Palladio Herbal Lipstick is enriched with peppermint for fresh breath. Added herbs like Green Tea, Chamomile, Ginseng, Ginkgo Biloba, Aloe Vera and Vitamin E to improve the lips surface and combat aging to reduce the appearance of fine lines. It prevents the lips from drying or cracking, providing the natural humectants needed for a healthy look.
My Thoughts:
Another awesome product from Palladio! The Palladio Herbal Lipsticks are very pigmented and not over drying. The lipsticks are creamy and go on smoothly. The staying power I would have to say is like most lipsticks. I was able to wear the lipsticks for several hours before having to do a tiny touch up. I like how there was no unpleasant smell or taste. I find a lot of the times lipsticks have a weird smell or taste. While the lipstick was on my lips, they did not settle into any fine lines or feel heavy. The lipsticks are high in quality; low in price, and I have to say probably one of the best lipsticks I have ever tried (high end included). I am very impressed with the Palladio Herbal Lipsticks.

Palladio Herbal Lip Slix in Vixen ($5.99) Create full, beautiful lips with the Palladio Herbal Lip Slix crayon. All the control of a crayon with the shine of a lip gloss. Easy to apply and won’t smudge like some glosses.
My Thoughts:
Palladio Herbal Lip Slix is a jumbo-sized lip crayon. The crayon gives the pigmentation of a lipstick and the shine of a gloss. Because the end is pointy like a pencil, it gives you a lot of control and precision when you apply the Herbal Lip Slix. It serves as a lip liner and lip color at the same time. It’s a 2-in-1 product! On my lips, the Herbal Lip Slix feels very smooth and moisturizing. The staying power is excellent and there is no strange scent or taste.
A minor concern I do have is having to sharpen the pencil. It’s a jumbo-sized pencil, and I’m not too sure how many people own a sharpener that fit jumbo-sized pencils. It’s not a problem for me because I own sharpeners for various pencil sizes, but it may be an inconvenience for people who only own a sharpener for slim pencils.

Palladio Plump n Shine Herbal Plumping Lip Gloss in Mauvey ($5.99) The natural way to give your lips a healthy glow and youthful pout! A creamy lip gloss infused with a natural tripeptide to stimulate collagen production, transforming the contour and size whilst restoring natural colour to the lips. Nourishing oils help reduce the appearance of tell tale lip wrinkles while hydrating and protecting. Enriched with ginseng, green tea, gingko biloba, chamomile and aloe vera and fortified with anti-oxidant vitamins A, C, D & E to combat free radicals. Your lips remain soft and moist and the light gloss gives a hint of colour. Can be applied over your favorite lipstick or worn alone. Presented with an easy to use brush applicator.
My Thoughts:
For a gloss that is super glossy, surprisingly Palladio’s Plump n Shine Herbal Plumping Lip Gloss isn’t sticky or goopey at all. The gloss goes on very smoothly and cleanly and the wand is very easy to control. The wand has a brush on the end that is soft and not scratchy, stiff. The color of the lipgloss is sheer but still pigmented. I did detect a very subtle scent and taste, but it’s not bothersome. I would say the scent and taste was on the sweet end. Like most glosses, this gloss only lasted a few hours before having to reapply.
As for the plumping action, it was difficult to see if any plumping occurred since my lips are already full. However, I did notice a slight cool, tiny tingling sensation. Thank goodness it wasn’t the burning kind of tingling sensation. I hate those kind of plumpers! Overall, the Plump n Shine Herbal Plumping Lip Gloss is a great lipgloss and worth a try.
