Review: Milani Lip Mixer Gloss

Lip Mixer AKA Lip Blend $6.99
Color, Shine, and Shimmer in one wand
Lip mixer is one of Milani’s newer glosses. It is, as the name implies, one of the glosses that has several layers, and as you withdraw the wand, the colors mix or blend together. So far, they are still distinct layers in the tube.

The first time I applied it, the color was stronger, as if it hadn’t mixed into the other two layers. But putting the wand back into the container passes thru the 2 light layers again, then to pull it out, it passes thru the 2 light layers again. Today, the color is not strong, but translucent. So it makes sense that the lighter layers are 4:2 — and maybe not really 4:2, maybe 4:1.5 because you really don’t mix into the darkest layer much.

704 This goes from a deep wine to a lighter white-wine.
The color is translucent on. There are tiny gold glitters in the formula which add to the shimmer.

I applied this after I had used it to create my Black lippie. But it had not left any stain on my lips.

Taken at night with flash. This is a very pretty light, medium pink with a lot of life to it. I had been afraid it would be too light, but it is not. It’s a livelier look on me than 704. It also has tiny gold glitter in it.

How does it feel?
Moist, but not sticky.

How does it compare to the other Milani lip glosses?

It’s fun to have. I still love the Glitzy gloss and the Crystal gloss. They are my faves, so far, so this is a second choice.

Have you tried these? How do you like them? What do you think?

If you like the colors, go for it!

4 only because I really like the other two glosses
