Smashbox Wicked Lovely Doubletake Lip Color ($22) is a double-ended lip pencil and creamy lip color in a new soft pink nude shade that perfectly complements a sensual smoky eye. The vitamin-packed formula has caffeine and nourishing wheat glycerides to moisturize and protect lips.
My Thoughts:
Wicked Lovely Doubletake Lip Color comes in one color, Gossamer. It is a light pink lip color. It’s a perfect match for a smokey eye look. Be sure to moisturize and buff your lips before using the doubletake lip color because it can accentuate dryness. I don’t use this when I’m tan because it can make me look a little washed-out since it is a light pink color. If I do use this when I am tanned, I make sure to use a lip gloss with a little color to bring color to my lips.

My Thoughts:
I love this lipstick! It is moisturizing and pigmented. I have this in “Baby” a pink, peachy, beige lipcolor. It’s a great color for spring. It’s also perfect for the natural, everyday look. Perfect Rouge is light-weight and semi-matte. To make it long-lasting, I use Shiseido Smoothing Lip Pencil underneath.
