New from DuWop - Get Your Mood On with Your Own Private Red Lippie

DuWop has unlocked something new! It's no surprise that the brand that introduced us to the world of lip plumping continues to provide us with unique, delicious new lip products. Can't wait to try this.

Private Red, a color-changing lipstick that morphs into each woman's personal red, is the first of its kind to transform a single red shade into an endless variety of hues. This silky lipstick goes on smooth, and the rich pigment changes within five minutes to leave behind the ultimate perfect red.

Private Red's proprietary formula includes a blend of three naturally derived pigments - annatto, hibiscus, and henna - and the technology behind the classic “mood lipsticks” of the seventies to provide a vibrant red shade that adapts to suit each individual's coloring. Annatto lends a rich pigment base, while hibiscus flowers offer gentle antiseptic properties, and henna leaves behind a long-lasting stain. Additional hydrating ingredients such as beeswax, caster oil and Vitamin E keep the lip color lightweight and emollient.

Yet another new DuWop lip product creation - Lipmousse. We shared initial information about this in late July, and then it seemed to just vanish. No one could tell us anything more about it. Well, it's back, it's available, and you can check out more about this creamy lipsticky-gloss combination now. Available in six fabulous shades, Lipmousse retails for $22.



Private Red retails for $22 and is available now online at DuWop.

DuWop's New Lip Delights

Not that one can find much on this hinted about new lip product by DuWop, but I thought I'd share a bit of scoop until we learn more. Elle magazine gives us a little peek at DuWop Lipmousse in the August 2009 issue. With a texture of decadent whipped cream, Lipmousse is said to devlier the intense pigment of a lipstick plus the soft shine of a gloss.



DuWop says their Lipmousse's creamy, lightweight formula packs staying power with a punch of satiny color. The unique showerhead applicator dispenses drops of shea butter-infused color that hydrates long after the first use. Hydro-attracting powdered silicone consisting of two interlacing polymer networks absorbs water and swells, creating a mousse-like look and feel. The super absorbent formula also creates an optical blurring effect that diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in the lips. They say often times, in order to get intense coverage, there is an element of thickness that needs to exist. Lipmousse gives a long-lasting look without waxy buildup, creating a powerful burst of color, but is still sheer enough to see the beauty of the lips that lies underneath.

Not in stock yet on the site (or anywhere, really, that I can find yet), Lipmousse is slated to come in six mouthwatering shades: Baked Apple, Creme Brulee, Cupcake, Ganache, Sorbet and Tart and will retail for $22 each.



Another new lip product by DuWop, their limited edition Lip Venom V is a sneak preview of their highly anticipated Twilight Venom, debuting this Fall. Lip Venom V is not your typical DuWop venom. Instead of a gloss, Lip Venom V is a shimmering crimson lip stain suspended in a venom-laced liquid lip conditioner with a super potent bite, and contains argan, avocado, olive oils and vitamin E. The product should be shaken before use to represent the blending of the human and vampire worlds (ha ha) and applied repeatedly until lips are plumped, revitalized and the desired intensity of color has been reached. I managed to grab one of these. The liquid is quite beautiful in the glass bottle, a dark shimmery crimson (the photo doesn't do it justice!). Applied, it is sheer red and tastes of cinnamon-mint. However, additional coats may be applied to intensify the stain on lips. My favorite way to wear it is to outline my lips in pencil then apply Lip Venom V within and blend. Love it!


Lip Venom V is only available for a limited time and retails for $16 (but be prepared for the shipping & handling charges on this little beaute ... whew!)

DuWop: Pure Venom Plumping Lip Stain

DuWop has revamped its original plumping Lip Venom with an eco-friendly version called Pure Venom. Organic cinnamon oil plumps, while safflower oil creates shine and organic castor oil conditions and smoothes. “We wanted to create this as a challenge to ourselves,” says Cristina Bartolucci, DuWop’s creative director. They're also introducing Pure Venom Plumping Lip Stain. In a manner she calls “eco-pristine,” the beneficial ingredients in Pure Venom like shea butter, safflower oil, and jojoba oil are all traceable to their organic roots, some from a farm in the midwestern United States where they were grown. The packaging is completely sustainable and recyclable. Pure Venom launches this month at Sephora and will retail for $24. Available in Pure Nude (sheer nude) and Pure Berry (sheer berry red).

Wanna get your hands on one? Don't hold your breath! So popular are they already that they're sold out at Sephora.com. You can, however, still score a DuWop Pure Venom Plumping Lip Stain from DuWop online.

DuWop: A Little Beauty Secret Unveiled

DuWop Reverse Lipliner

I've been a huge fan of this little diddy for years now. If you've not discovered it yet, you should really do yourselves a favor and give it a whirl. It's one of the few products I can honestly say I never let myself run out of. Here's the scoop.

• it shapes
• it smoothes
• it fills in those lines around the mouth with natural lipofillers
• it keeps your lipstick and gloss exactly where it belongs
• it's on A-Lister's top beauty secrets time and time again
  

This product easily shape your lips without the harsh edges of a lip liner. Reverse Lipliner is a colorless, matte pencil that when applied to the skin outside the lips produces a perfectly shaped pout while preventing lipstick and gloss from feathering. Reverse Lipliner's miracle ingredient is Kombuchka™ a product based on the fermentation of black tea and a wild mushroom that originated in Tibet. Kombuchka™ has been proven to cause “lipofilling,” a reaction that restores volume to the skin in areas where more volume is needed, such as the fine vertical lines around the mouth. Tests have also shown that this magical ingredient greatly decreases the roughness of the skin, and improves its appearance. Reverse Lipliner also includes macadamia oil, cocoa butter, and vitamin E for their softening and hydrating properties.

Here's a little incentive to give this tried and true item a try of your own. Now through June 29, 2008 (or while supplies last), you can save 20% at DuWop by entering the code JUNETREAT at checkout. They're also offering free shipping with orders of $50 or over.
