Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lipgloss in Maverick - £16.00
 (*Sample size shown in photographs)

 Marvelous Moxie is the new range of glosses, lipsticks and lipliners released from Bare Minerals designed to make your lips look 'fuller' and more 'voluptuous'. The shade Maverick is described as a 'rosewood shimmer' and is a beautiful brown-toned neutral gloss. 

When I first tried this formula on my lips I was really, really surprised at how it applied. It looked completely smooth and glided on beautifully. It's not sticky and has a refreshing minty smell and taste, it also made my lips feel a bit tingly. The colour can easily be built up without the need to blot, which is great as some glosses need a bit of extra care when applying. The angled doe foot applicator is very smooth and well made also, and the angle helps to apply the gloss easier too.

The gloss wore really well on me and I only had to re-apply a few times throughout the day, which is quite impressive for a lipgloss. The glosses contain Shea, Avocado and Murumuru butters to help moisturise the lips and an "an encapsulated vitamin A, C and E complex helps to deliver antioxidant defense" which is a nice touch as they rule out the need for a lip balm during the day.

I liked this shade on me, although it's not one I typically tend to go for and might not work for everyone as it's very brown-based. They have a nice selection of shades, however, and all of the shades contain shimmer. The shimmer is quite predominant in the photo above due to the flash, but when they are on, the shimmer is very subtle and only seen if you are looking for it. 

Marvelous Moxie is available online now here and in store from this Thursday (6th June).
