Vivienne Sabo lip gloss

It is said that the famous Catherine de Medici invented lip gloss during her favorite chemical experiments. Well, if this is true, fashionistas will know who to thank for one of the most necessary decorative cosmetics products. Today, gloss is no less popular than lipstick. The choice of such products in the cosmetics market is also diverse. Many ladies prefer Vivienne Sabo lip glosses.

The brand was founded by the leading Russian distribution company Gradient, inspired by a romantic story about Frenchwoman Vivien Szabo.

Vivien Szabo lived in Paris in the 1930s, studied chemistry at the Sorbonne (where she met her boyfriend Louis) and kept a diary. Vivienne and Louie invented and created various cosmetic products together (it was Vivienne Szabo who created purple compact eye shadow), and after graduation they planned to open their own beauty laboratory. Their dreams were put to an end by World War II - Louis did not return from the war, and Vivienne abandoned both the diary and the experiments. Nothing is known about her future fate, but Vivienne Sabo brand products are created according to recipes from her diary.

The manufacturer is distinguished by humanity, all products are environmentally friendly.Vivienne Sabo does not conduct experiments on animals, experts use the most natural ingredients. Polka-dot design (in the Parisian style) and the aroma of fresh violets are also distinctive features.

Lacquer, matte, glitter, lip gloss with a 3D effect - you will find options for every taste. It is worth considering several lines (for a better acquaintance with different products):

• Couleurs Fraiches - a very effective lacquer shine, but it cannot be called defiant - thanks to delicate creamy shades. Special components (they are not disclosed by the manufacturer, but their effectiveness is confirmed by customers) smooth out fine wrinkles and bumps on the lips, giving them a brilliant seductiveness. This gloss is ideal for creating a natural look - 13 completely different shades will allow you to emphasize individuality without going beyond. The thick consistency of the gloss does not allow it to spread on the lips. Of the shortcomings, only the stickiness of the product is noted.

• "Brilliance Hypnotique" - the magical radiance of your lips attracts attention like a magnet. A gloss with a 3D effect will give your lips plumpness, clarity of contour. Thanks to its moisturizing properties, such cosmetics perfectly mask minor imperfections of the skin surface. Of the advantages, excellent quality is noted - both the product itself and the packaging with a convenient brush. Of the shortcomings - the stickiness of the gloss. Price - about 150 rubles.

• "Champs Elysees" - lip gloss with volume effect. Without sparkles, with a slight beautiful shimmer. The gloss is quite pigmented - the second layer will easily block the color of the lips, so you can use this product instead of lipstick.Of the advantages, it is necessary to mention the non-stickiness of the gloss and its caring properties (the composition allows you to resist age-related changes). Disadvantages - spreads in hot weather, not very resistant, uncomfortable brush.

• "Matte Magnifique" - matte liquid lipstick, which some people call gloss for some reason. However, it is still semi-matte (judging by the finish, it is not exactly matte, but more velvety). This product does not dry out the lips, but does not moisturize them either. A serious drawback is a very weak resistance. Price - about 150 rubles.

• "Levres De Diamant" - a brilliant shine will provide you with the same attention from the opposite sex (and not only) as the diamonds themselves. Glitter contains just a huge amount of multi-colored sparkles, but it cannot be called vulgar. It can even be used for office makeup - however, in this case, one layer will be enough. For evening make-up, it can be used over lipstick (it will give it a special effect). It has no caring properties, although the lips are not particularly dry. Among the advantages, non-stickiness can be noted, and among the disadvantages is the low quality of the bottle (it leaks, you have to wipe it with a napkin to save the cosmetic bag). Price - about 80-100 rubles.

The choice of shades is really rich - you can easily choose the right tone for any style.

• "Matte Magnifique" available in 8 colors: 210 - light pink (with a cool undertone), 211 - fuchsia, 212 - pink-beige nude, 213 - cold terracotta, 214 - dark pink (cold undertone) and 215 - juicy bright red .
• "Levres De Diamant" - has in the palette 7 fresh and juicy shades with iridescent radiance. These colors (plus the sweet raspberry scent) are reminiscent of a cheerful sunny summer.The palette is ideal for light romantic or business make-up.

• Couleurs Fraiches - the palette is distinguished by a special creamy tenderness of all 12 shades. Natural tones make it possible to use glitter even for a strict business make-up.
• "Brilliance Hypnotique" has the richest palette of 19 colors - from transparent to rich beige (although most shades are still translucent).
• "Champs Elysees" - 12 shades will give the image of romance, sensuality, elegance or business rigor (your choice).
