Kiss My Face Giveaway!

I have a REALLY cool giveaway for one lucky person (sorry, US residents only)! Kiss My Face has generously provided me with a TON of products for me to try and a set for me to give away!


Background:

Kiss My Face started 25 years ago by two young guys living on an organic farm. They decided to create an organic beauty product and so they created a huge bar of soap created with olive oil from Greece. They brought the soap to New York City to sell and got a great response from retailers, who bought up everything they had. So they decided to launch a company called Kiss Organics and it was the very first line of facial care products created with organic ingredients. They don’t test on animals, they don’t use animals ingredients, they don’t use artificial colors or unnecessary chemicals.

Kiss My Face Lip Swatches Kiss My Face Giveaway!

These are swatches of the Sheer Organic Shine Glosses. I also have done my first real  lip gloss swatches below so please forgive me if the pics aren’t great. I am just trying to give you a sense of what the colors actually look like on. One thing to note about these glosses, if you don’t like the smell and taste of mint you will not like these because they are VERY minty and “natural” smelling!


Kiss My Face Pearl copy Kiss My Face Giveaway!

Pearl is a frosty beige that was light and pretty. The application was nice and not too runny or thick.


Kiss My Face Opal copy Kiss My Face Giveaway!

Opal is a light pink frosty gloss that also was very flattering on fair skin and the application was perfect.


Kiss My Face Ruby copy Kiss My Face Giveaway!


Ruby is a deeper shimmery pink that went on very sheer and glossy. It doesn’t have the same frosted effect as the previous two.


Kiss My Face Amethyst copy Kiss My Face Giveaway!

Amethyst is definitely not for fair girls, it’s a darker purple/pink that didn’t work on me at all. Application was good but I noticed it settled into the lines in my lips immediately and that’s a huge pet peeve of mine with lip gloss!


Kiss My Face Topaz copy Kiss My Face Giveaway!

Topaz is a dark coppery brown gloss that didn’t look good on me but would work for those with darker skin tones. This one too settled into the lip lines.


Kiss My Face Garnet copy Kiss My Face Giveaway!

Garnet is a dark ruby red gloss that looked terrible on me and was a flat out MESS to apply! It was runny and completely uneven and almost impossible to get it applied decent for a picture. You can see it settling in the lip lines also. The color is nice for some skin tones I am sure, but the application was god awful. Maybe my tube was defective or extra warm & runny?



You can find Kiss My Face products at
a variety of stores across the US, including Whole Foods. You can also
find them online at Amazon and Drugstore.com.

    Wow! That’s an exciting giveaway. I’ve used Kiss My Face shave cream. I pretty much go between that and the Trader Joes brand depending where I happen to be shopping the week I run out. I haven’t tried their other products yet. I really liked the swatch of Ruby. I will have to check that one out.

    Hi Kelly,

    I like the looks of the lip glosses. I’ve never used their skin care before. I’d love to hear what you think of the serum and night cream.

    Thank you, KellY!!

    Hi Carol,

    I have been using the serum for about 5-6 days now at night and I really like it. It’s very light and non-greasy which is great. I cannot stand putting on a greasy or sticky facial product before bed and then having cat hair stuck all over my face all night! I haven’t had a chance to try the night cream yet, but will once the serum runs out. I really like their eye cream also.

    Can I still win this one even though I won the China Glaze?

    Oooooh, I didn’t know they had a makeup line! I use Kiss My Face’s “Whenever” shampoo because it’s SLS free (I’m allergic). It smells so good! I will definitely have to get some of their lipglosses.

    I’ve heard a lot of good things about their products (particularly their eye balm), but I’ve never used any of their products before. This is exciting. Thanks, Kelly!

    Thank you for answering my question, Kelly. I am trying to finish up the skin care I have before I buy anything new, but I will definitely be getting the serum.
