Product Review: Christian Siriano Makeup
Thu., Sep. 10, 2009 2:00 PM PDT by Staff
Project Runway winner Christian Siriano's new limited-edition makeup line for Victoria's Secret is inspired by his fall 2009 fashion collection. But are his beauty products as fierce as his designs? We tried the Lip Gloss ($12) and Bronzer/Highlighter Trio ($16) to find out!
Pros: The lip gloss looks great on tan skin or with the bronzer/highlighter.
Cons: The bronzer had too much shimmer. Use it on cheeks and eyes!

Pros: Loved the texture of the lip gloss. It wasn't sticky like M·A·C's Lip Glass and it lasted quite awhile! The bronzer/highlighter didn't have as much pigment as other brands like M·A·C and Tarte so it was easy to blend and build upon.
Cons: Because the shades in the compact are linear and I used a large brush to apply, I never knew what I was going to get on my brush. A quilt pattern would come out more evenly.

Pros: The bronzer/highlighter gave me a flawless, sunkissed glow. The sugary sweet-smelling lip gloss was light yet moisturizing.
Cons: The lip gloss applicator seemed to put too much on. I had to wipe some of it off. The case on the bronzer is a little difficult to open.

Bottom Line: If the Lip Gloss and Bronzer/Highlighter Trio are any indication, Christian Siriano's got a future in the beauty biz!
