I’m sure you’ve all heard of Lancôme’s Juicy Tubes, known as their lip gloss / balm range, which is designed to give your lips a pop of sheer colour whilst keeping them moisturised and hydrated. I personally own three, my favourite being Melon :9 But I have to say that Peche and Fraise both make a close second. When Lancôme kindly sent me Exotic Bomb I was extremely excited, especially when I pulled the tube out of the box and saw the amazingly cute design!
How cute right? The design for all the tubes (there are 6 total, each with a different design) are by Yayoi Kusama, a very popular Japanese artist. This particular collection is limited edition. Exotic Bomb is actually similar in scent and appearance to Fraise in the tube, but when applied is quite a bit more pigmented. The micro shimmers are gorgeous, but you can’t feel them on your lips, the best part~ 😀
If you are a newbie to the Lancôme Juicy Tube range, I think the most important thing to note is that these glosses have a fruity scent respective to their flavour, nothing overpowering, but I would certainly try these out in person to test your tolerance if you are sensitive. I do find them to be hydrating and give great shine and colour, but they can prove to be very sticky. So keep your hair out of your face if you intend to use these (as you should when using any gloss to be honest)
The collection contains 6 shades / flavours all together, Crazy Yuzu, Vigorous Fruit, Exotic Bomb, Yoga Vanilla, Baba Jasmine and Peace & Flowers, they come out on the 10th of July, 2011 at $29 each, so plenty of time to save up 🙂 I can’t wait to check out of the rest of the collection 😀
Stunning! I’m yet to try Juicy Tubes and love the ltd ed packaging! Gorgeous! Are these available in Aus (the ltd ed ones)?
Yay! I hope you love them too 🙂 Yes these limited edition ones will be available in Australia from the 10th of July on wards 😀
I needed some Juicy Tubes in my life!
Will mark July 10 on my calendar.
Yay!! I have it marked in mine too, can’t wait! 😀
I still have two Juicy Tubes from… gosh, at least two years ago! But I can’t get over how sticky they are, seriously. Pity because they are just gorgeous.
Very sticky, but so prettii!
Love the packaging…and yes Juicy tubes are great
I am admittedly quite the sucker for packaging X_x; Silly superficial Celina >_O
Such pretty packaging. I am personally not one for gloss in tube but I will definitely look out for this. Sadly, i won’t be back from myy holiday til the 20th.. but I’ll just wait for another review coming from you 🙂
Yay! Where are you going for holiday? Maybe they will have some there as well 🙂 Hope you have lots of fun <3 🙂
