Wander Beauty Double Date Lip & Cheek
I've been a sucker for cream products so I was so excited to get this lip and cheek duo in one of my makeup subscription boxes. While I normally use these type of products for just my cheeks I did use it on both to show the shades. I only have one of these, in the shade Rendezvous/Swipe, but really like the shade. It is definitely more of a spring/summer shade so I wanted to share now before I start going more deeper for the fall. I have pros and cons with these though. They have four total, which I feel isn't a lot, but I do like the shades they have to offer. I also am not sure why these are duos. It makes more sense for the lips I guess but hear me out. You open the top lid to the pretty pink pigment shade and then open it again to reveal a mirror and clear balm. This clear balm will obviously be a good clear lip balm but can be used as a glossy highlighter as well. The problem with this is that each duo has the same clear balm.
Again, just to point out, when I buy or use these type of products in general I usually just use them for my cheeks so I normally like options and buy a few of them. They aren't hella expensive or anything but it kind of sucks to get the same clear balm with each shade. I'd rather them switch it up with different highlight shades or even a duo with two blush shades! It's kind of a waste in my opinion but at the same time, I get it for people just using it for their lips or both. I think even singles would've been best for this product and that is what a lot of brands do when they market them "lip and cheek" and have a clear option. The only other con is that these are straight up balms. I don't mind, I mean I like other formulas that are more of a melting cream than balm, but I can make these work still. If you don't like balm products I don't think you would like this one.
I don't want to come off as roasting this product because I do enjoy the shade, pigment, and wear time this blush has to offer. I also love that the pigment goes a long way. One dip in is already enough product for me but I have found that it is also buildiable if you like a real intense blush. It may not be my top favorite cream/balm formula but it is still one I enjoy using. Wander Beauty usually doesn't let me down and I love so many of their products so if you haven't, you really should try some of their products! xo
