Other than El Hub getting his share, I’ll be saving my mistletoe kisses for the three La Creme Lipsticks in the new Under the Mistletoe set by cruelty-free carolers Too Faced Cosmetics.
The $28 limited edition set comes with three full-size, shimmery versions of a few La Creme Lipstick bestsellers, including my favorite, Spice Spice Baby, and to keep them safe and sound, tuck them in at night in the included glittery pink lip bag.
Note to self: Ask Santa for a glittery pink sleeping bag. 🙂
Shimmering Naked Dolly (a golden peachy pink), Shimmering Marshmallow Bunny (a golden peachy pink) and Shimmering Spice Spice Baby (a shimmering pinkish brown) have a soft, creamy consistency, a light lemony vanilla flavor and scent, and a wear time that ranges from three to five hours.
If your lips are frequently dry like mine, take heed — when wearing these shimmery shades, you may want to prep your lips first with an exfoliating lip scrub and balm, maybe the night before, as the shimmery finish tends to highlight flakes.
PRICE: $28
AVAILABILITY: Limited edition, and available now at Too Faced counters and online

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

P.S.
I like the shimmer but I kinda wish they would have just kept the regular formula instead. The La Creme lipsticks are pretty easy to wear. I would have been ALL over this set if these were perm colors. It’s a steal!
Hi Fancie!
I like these, but I looooooove the original versions of the shades. Would’ve been awesome if they did a neutrals bag and a brights bag. I would be ALL OVER that!
Happy Friday. 🙂
I love how you photographed this, Karen! 😀 I feel all ready for the holidays now. Gimmeh mah presentssss!!!
Totally unrelated to the lipstick, I am loving your purple eyeliner!!!
There is something about the holidays that gives everyone a free ticket to shimmer ~everything~. These look very pretty and that bag is cute. My mom’s favorite lipstick is Marshmallow Bunny so I will have to keep this in mind for her as a potential sparkly gift.
I am all over this set! What a steal! I agree, it would have been fabulous to have two sets of colors though. I’m so excited for the holiday sets!
I really like Spice!
This set is super cute although all the shades look kind of similar on you. The bag is adorable though.
I found this one Sephora and I was immediately captivated by the pink glittery bling bling bag. I want that bag in my purse at all times LOL. I’m not a big fan for frosty lipsticks but I do like the La Creme formula. What to do? 😛
Get it gurllll 😛
Pretty disappointing these only come in the lightest shades! Don’t suit me at all and I would have loved to have some shimmery bright lippies for the holidays! Oh well!
I’d love it if they did a brights and spices bag!
very pretty!
I think these look gorgeous on you. I have been confused about these and have no la creme lip pies to compare to. I might just order them and if they don’t work well what are return policies for lol. That’s how I’m going to justify this purchase. That and your gorgeous swatches on your lips but then again you look gorgeous with anything!
Spice Spice Baby? How can that not be a winner? The color is definitely my favorite of the three. And the name? Love it! 🙂
Karen, you look amazing in these pics! I can’t decide which one is my fave on you. I might return the La Creme Taffy I bought last week (it’s a beautiful shade but doesn’t look like much on me) and exchange it for this set.
Hi Kristina!
It’s nice to meet you. This set is lovely, but you have to be cool with shimmer. Have you tried La Creme in Spice Spice Baby yet? It is my go-to shade. 🙂
Happy Wednesday!
