Review: Jelly Pong Pong Lip Sorbets (yum!)

I know I sound like a broken record when it comes to my love for BeautyTicket.com, but darnit, this site just plain rocks. Take for instance these Jelly Pong Pong Lip Sorbets. Amazon is selling them for $16 each. And BeautyTicket? Oh, try $12.99 for a set of THREE! Why pay $48 for these when you can get 'em for $12.99? See, I told you BeautyTicket.com was awesome. :)

I was lucky enough to receive a set of Jelly Pong Pong Lip Sorbets recently for review, and I've got to tell you these things are not only adorable, but the colors are so pretty and they smell and taste yummy too. Let's take a look.

If you order them from BeautyTicket, they'll arrive in a USPS box, and inside that box they'll be carefully wrapped inside a cute pink and white striped bag. Inside that bag, they'll be tucked into a pretty black lace bag:

I am all about packaging and presentation and I've got to say, this presentation is too cute for words. And look at these things! They are so tiny and cute! Each gloss is about 2 inches tall, making them ideal for your pocket or small purse.

The first color I tried is "Buttercream" which, you guessed it, smells and tastes just like delicious buttercream frosting. The shade is a warm, slightly reddish copper shimmer and it goes on sheer but not too sheer:

The next color is "Blood Orange" which, of course smells and tastes like a delicious, ripe, blood orange. This is a shimmery rose gold shade that is just stunning in person. It's definitely my fave of the three:

And lastly, we have "Spiced Pear". This one smells insanely delicious--just like a fresh-baked pear that's been covered in cinnamon. The shade is a deep, super shimmery bronze:

Here are some close-up swatches on my hand.

In all of these pics, Buttercream is on top, Blood Orange is in the middle and Spiced Pear is on the bottom:

If you need a good stocking stuffer for the lipgloss lover in your life, this is it! I'm telling you, from the packaging to the colors to the flavors, these glosses are awesome. Also, the staying power is great and they're quite moisturizing as well. I think these colors, due to their sheerness, would work on a variety of skin tones, and also a variety of ages. You can easily wear these alone, for the daytime, or over a lipstain or lipstick for a more dramatic nighttime look. And for the price? You can buy one set for yourself and one for a friend. :)
