$12.99 a piece...

The reason I tell the price first is because I got to explain how I got all three( which would add up to 38.97) for 15.98...

*One was part of a BOGO Free at Walgreens..I bought Color Presso in Ritzy and got a HIP Kohl Liner in Black for Free.(12.99 before tax)

*The other two, Swanky and Stylish were a BOGO Free at CVS and I bought them with $10.00 Bonus Bucks I earned..$12.99+$12.99-$12.99=$12.99-$10.00=$2.99 before tax)=

$15.98

Deal? or No Deal? lol!! H.I.P Color Presso Review begins now....

Positive:-

-Cute and pretty and innovative...I had to have them in my stash!! The three colors I got are gorgeous...

-The color payoff is even swell, very true to the color you see and the mix it becomes and it has the signature HIP lipgloss "cookie" scent to them...

-Travel Friendly..2 Color Presso=4 lipglosses!

-you don't have to use both at the same time...I like the pink side of Swanky by itself!

BUT...




*L'Oreal...uh don't try to hustle the Diva. Those Color Pressos are ya'lls OLD HIP Brilliant Shine Lip Glosses in a NEW PACKAGING. SERIOUSLY...If you have like ten or fifteen of those old HIP Lip glosses in the Colour Juice package like me ( I picked them up when they discontinued them at 75% off), you might want to re-think re-buying in the form of Color Presso. I did realize it til I had bought the other two what had happened. HUSTLED.*


Negative:

-It never comes out evenly on both sides at the same time no matter how you position your fingers, hands.. I squeeze one color out first then the other color on top of the first color and swirl it with a lip brush. Should I be going through all that for a $12.99 lip gloss?

-Uhmmm....$12.99.Same explanation as the HIP Kohl Liners...L'Oreal...stop it! geezz!!



Consensus:

Buy it..on a BOGO Free...but remember what I said( go thru your old HIP glosses so you won't dupe).I'm not going get any other BTW...
