Everyone has at least *one* song that always gets ’em on the dance floor (and don’t even pretend; I know what you do when you hear “Oh, my, god. Becky, look at her butt,” LOL!).
As a lifelong lover of public displays of ridiculousness, I actually have quite a few booty-shaking dance jams. One of my all-time faves: Dancing Queen! 🙂
See that girl, watch that scene, diggin’ the dancing queen…
Yeah, “young and sweet and only 17” — that was a loooong time ago for yours truly, but the song still totally moves me. And when Benefit announced the new Ultra Shines lipglosses a few months ago and included a color called Dancing Queen ($18), I thought, “It’s destiny!”
I’ve really been into bright lips lately, like Dancing Queen, a flirty, shimmery hot pink with subtle blue iridescence.
Like the other Ultra Shines I’ve tried, Dancing Queen goes on silky smooth, with loads of pigment and shine, and I love how great it looks on different skin tones. The color looks lovely on Erin, a pale blonde beauty with green eyes, and Marisol, a brown-eyed babe who’s a few shades darker than me.
Benefit Dancing Queen Ultra Shines Lipgloss!
Mandatory goofy face!
Suffice it to say, I’m crushing on this color, hard.
NOTE: It’s unflavored, but it does have a faintly fruity vanilla scent…just in case you’re not a fan of scented lip products.
If you’re in the mood for something bright and fun, consider taking this Dancing Queen out for a spin. Available at Sephora, as well as Benefit counters, stores and online at benefitcosmetics.com. Makeup and Beauty Blog Rating: A+
You might like Benefit Dancing Queen Ultra Shine Lipgloss if…
- You like the look of bright pink gloss
- You want a moisturizing lippie
- You don’t mind lip products with a subtle fruity/vanilla scent
What’s your dance jam?
Speaking of dance jams, I put the question out there on twitter. Is there a song that always gets your booty on the dance floor?
Come on. Fess up! 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
That lipgloss is pretty! 🙂 I want, I want! 🙂
Youre last pic – cute! 😉
Were having tons of rain here and will continue thru the weekend … im done w/ the baby shower shopping and were just staying at home, Probly ordering Thai delivery …
Hey Nina are you in Houston? It’s been raining non stop here too!
Hi Lizbeth,
I think there are lots of several girls from Houston on here… Amber’s from H-town, too, I believe!
Yes ma’am! 🙂 Our weather has been a bit neurotic hasnt it?
Hi Nina,
Summer rain? Boo! Well, at least it’s a relief from the heat.
Glad to hear the shower stuff is all done. Can’t wait for the par-tay, woo!
Done with the par-tay! The Hubs and I have UFC 116 on PPV right now. Just chillaxin’ …
Haha you look really cute and funny in that picture! As for the dance jams question, I usually don’t like dancing (I know I’m a weirdo) but I can’t resist Queen’s “Don’t Stop Me Now” and “Rock & Roll All Night” from Kiss 😀 Haha even the thoughts of them are provocative.
Aww, really? I bet if we went out together I’d totally be able to get you on the floor! And we’d have a TON of fun. 🙂
You are sooooo my sister. LOL. That is her jam too! I love this gloss. I’m overdue for some Benefit love, too, so I’ll have to check it out.
God, anything from Michael Jackson is my JAM. Anything–but PYT is my all-time fave. Poison by Bel Biv Devoe is another one. Never trust a big butt and a smile!
I think it’s mandatory to have a sister who’s obsessed with this song, LOL! I know about 5 of ’em.
Benefit’s been having a GREAT run as of late. When you go peep the Ultra Shines and the new palettes!
Funny that you mention old school MJ. I have been listening to Off the Wall non-stop all week long.
And those boys of BBD… what wise sages!
What are you up to this weekend? Doing anything fun?
I love magenta colours for the summer and Benefit glosses feel so nice on the lips.
.-= amy’s last blog post… Great for Light Makeup- NARS Skin Softening Milk Cleanser =-.
I love this texture too! Do you have any of the Ultra Shines?
Karen,
I absolutely love the words you use. You are such a funky teenager at heart. Can I come live with you? You seem like you’d be an awesome mom.
Xtina! 🙂 Sure… I gotta warn you though that the El Hub and Tabs might wonder why you’re here, but hey, I’ll just tell them you’re my homegirl from the blog, LOL!
Really pretty, I like lipgloss with that kind of pigmentation and the color is beautiful too.
This line of glosses in general is great. Are you a Benefit fan?
I love this gloss so much. In fact, I used it today.
You are sorta making the duck face – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0ohT89flgc
My friend posted this on facebook and I am guilty of it as well. 🙂
