ittsē Customizable Cosmetics: Lip Creme Color Swatches, Review

Press sample

I've always been drawn to customizable makeup palettes.  Not only do you get to choose the colors that you will actually wear and use,  you get to have everything in plain sight in one convenient package.  I've always gravitated towards Z palettes or any customizable palettes because not only do I like rearranging the colors in the palette, I also like looking at them and choosing the colors I will wear for the day.

ittsē (obviously a play of the word "itsy") is a brand of customizable makeup that are specifically designed to be mixed and matched in palettes. I was able to try two of the lip products from this brand. The ittsē Lip Creme Color are lip colors in tiny pots that you can bring with you anywhere, and can easily fit into a customizable palette (that ittsē also sells). Main ingredients of the ittsē Lip Creme Color are:

o Carnauba wax - for a smooth application and glossy finish
o Beeswax - to protect and nourish lips against the elements
o Vanilla Fragrance and Natural Peppermint oil - to please the senses and soothe & calm

Swatches of the ittsē Lip Creme Color:

I tried the nice pop of bright pink and a deeper wine red.  The pink one is more matte than the red one, but since matte is in, I kinda prefer the matte finish more.  It was pretty easy to apply these using a lip brush.

These lip colors will be available soon on the ittsē website. Each ittsē Lip Crème Color comes packaged in a reusable, clear plastic clamshell and retails for $7.99 on ittse.com. The magnetic ittsē palette to hold the Lip Crème Colors is available in six fashion-forward colors (Black Iris, Downtown Grey, Crisp White, Florentine Gold, Songbird and Anemone) for $21.99 or comes free with the purchase of $75 worth of products.
