Flower Beauty Kiss Stick Velvet Lip Colors (2 Shades) - Photos, Swatches, and Review

I had to go far and wide (well, a couple of cities over) to find Flower Beauty at a Walmart and finally was able to pick up some products to try. They had the entire line there and I had no idea what to buy first. I decided to start with lip products, so I bought a few of the lipsticks. The white lipstick packaging is velvet lip colors and the black lipstick packaging is high-shine lip colors. First, we will start with the velvet lip colors. Find out more in my review below!

NOTD: Deborah Lippmann Moon Rendezvous

NOTD is Deborah Lippmann Moon Rendezvous from the new Romantic Capture Spring 2013 Collection. Once I had it on, I never wanted to take it off! This is described as a faded slate blue shimmer and my mani lasted for almost a week. I only own one other Deborah Lippmann nail polish and I definitely need to buy more.  Deborah Lippmann Moon Rendezvous retails for $17.
